I wonder where Stig is now. The guy whose bass I’m playing and appears very briefly side stage. He was a pleasure to work with and a great Surgeons supporter. I think our Scunthorpe Baths gigs were when we met. Jont.
Remastered!? If you mean remastered by completely wiping out the drums and bass, then mission accomplished. This makes me angry. The original is infinitely better in that you can hear ALL of them. I don't who is responsible for this, but they aren't a true Dr Feelgood fan.
S.T.U.P.I.D. Annoying in every way. Stupid players walking back and forth. Boring guitar licks. Shit, tense singjng, barely in note, wrecking the vibe of Route 66. It's supposed to be a CELEBRATION of a road trip, not some angsty piece of metal trash.
#RIP Lee and Wilko. Never saw them unfortunately (well not this classic version of them), but remember buying that live album at the age of 15 and just being dumbstruck.
I’m a big Motörhead fan and always thought lemmy was the most bad ass frontman with no equal. Think Lee might have given him a run for his money! Lemmy smoked between songs-Lee actually smokes as he sings! Great stuff. Nothing like this in 2024 unfortunately
If you, ever go to Shoeburyness, Take the A road, the OK road that's the best, Go motorin, on the, A13. Well, if you're lookin for a thrill that's new, Take in Fords, the Dartford tunnel and the river too, Go motorin' on the A13, Well it starts down in Wapping, There ain't no stopping, By-pass Barking and straight through Dagenham, dahn, to Grays Thurrock, And rather near Basildon, Pittsea, Thundersley, Hadleigh, Leigh-on Sea, Chalkwell, Prittlewell, Southend's the end if you....
i saw Feelgood, and persuaded another 6 or 7 to come along, at a motel bar in Aranui, chch nz circa '85...they were fkn dynamite. I said to my mates if you don't think it one of the best rocking nights of your life i'll give you back the cover charge...didn't lose a cent. Lee was absolutely r.r.r.rocking
