Actor
Soundtrack

The story of Dr Feelgood, four men in cheap suits who crashed out of Canvey Island in the early '70s, sandpapered the face of rock'n'roll, leaving all that came before a burnt-out ruin - four estuarine John-the-Baptists to Johnny Rotten's anti-Christ.

Quotes
You didn't have to dress up in a cape or a pair of tights to see Dr Feelgood. It wasn't like going to see KISS. We had a really strong connection to our audience because of the way we looked and also through the songs. At the time there was a lot of stuff about hobgoblins, rubbish really, that had nothing to do with anything.
