MORE INFO ON THE ARTISTS/RELEASE:
Dr. Feelgood are a British pub rock band formed in 1971. Hailing from Canvey Island, Essex, the group are best known for early singles such as "She Does It Right", "Roxette", "Back in the Night" and "Milk and Alcohol" . The group's original distinctively British R&B sound was centred on Wilko Johnson's choppy guitar style. Along with Johnson, the original band line-up included singer Lee Brilleaux and the rhythm section of John B. Sparks, known as "Sparko", on bass guitar and John Martin, known as "The Big Figure", on drums. Although their most commercially productive years were the early to mid-1970s, and in spite of Brilleaux's death in 1994 of lymphoma, a version of the band (featuring none of the original members) continues to tour and record to this day.
Career[edit]
Early years[edit]
The band was formed in Canvey Island in 1971 by Johnson, Brilleaux and Sparks, who had all been members of existing R&B bands, and soon added drummer John Martin. They took their name from a 1962 record by the American blues pianist and singer Willie Perryman (also known as "Piano Red") called "Dr. Feel-Good", which Perryman recorded under the name of Dr. Feelgood & The Interns. The song was covered by several British beat groups in the 1960s, including Johnny Kidd & The Pirates. The term is also a slang term for heroin or for a doctor who is willing to overprescribe drugs.
By late 1973, the band's driving R&B had made them one of the most popular bands on the growing London pub rock circuit, and they recorded their debut album, Down by the Jetty, for United Artists in 1974. Like many pub rock acts, Dr. Feelgood were known primarily for their high energy live performances honed through constant touring and regular performances, although their studio albums like Down by the Jetty and Malpractice (1975) were also popular.
Their breakthrough 1976 live album, Stupidity, reached number one in the UK Albums Chart (their only chart-topper). But after the 1977 follow-up Sneakin' Suspicion, Johnson left the group because of conflicts with Lee Brilleaux. He was replaced by John 'Gypie' Mayo. With Mayo, the band was never as popular as with Johnson, but still enjoyed their only Top Ten hit single in 1979, with "Milk and Alcohol". Johnson never achieved any great success outside the band, apart from a brief spell with Ian Dury and The Blockheads from 1980. Fans always speculated about a return by Johnson that never occurred.

John Walsh 4.0 out of 5 starsHARDLINE R&B FROM BRITANAugust 26, 2014
Format: Audio CDVerified Purchase This cd has some great songs especially, from my standpoint, the last 4 selections. These guys rock hard and can interpret blues or rock and roll. This group was around before The Inmates, a group that modeled themselves after Dr. Feelgood, and have never let go of their dedication to this type of music. walkerstick 5.0 out of 5 starsDoc Feelgood is IN the house!April 13, 2012
Format: MP3 MusicVerified Purchase I first heard this 30+ years ago in Britain. I bought the album, and made a cassette tape of it. Then lost both, found it again at Tower in the 90's. Lost it again... Thank you Amazon!!!This is a bluesy, rock beating good time. It has held up well over the years, imo. A little musical caffeine from the UK, it might look punk, but punk wishes it had been this tight! Sometimes oldies are goodies!
