Random Discovery: Dr. Feelgood

Posted by Jason Harper on Tue, Oct 23, 2007 at 4:06 PM

So I get this book in the mail, a book written by some limey about dead rock stars, and innit, I find a profile on this cat named Lee Collinson, who died of t'roat cancer -- but not before singing in this killer '70s British pub rock band called Dr. Feelgood. Collinson sang under the alias Lee Brilleaux. He was great. I wish he was still alive and was my granddad and stuff. Check out the YouTubery on Lee and his mates. I love discovering new old stuff.

"Roxette" by Dr. Feelgood

"She Does It Right" by Dr. Feelgood

"Milk & Alcohol" by Dr. Feelgood

"Riot In Cell Block 9 & I Don't Mind" by Dr. Feelgood

Got any other recommendations on the pub-rock tip?

P.S. Holy shit! Did you know that half of Milli Vanilli is dead?

Oh man, I love this stuff.

This Brinsley Schwartz video from 1973 features the young Nick Lowe. Note the gum chomping.
