Canvey Island in Essex, was an unlikely birthplace for Britain's finest R&B band. Its bleak industrial skyline set against the cold waters of the Thames estuary, keeps it from inclusion in most holiday brochures, but in the 1960's it was home to teenage friends Lee Collinson, Chris White and John Sparkes. The trio shared a strong interest in music,...
After their second trip to Holland, Southend resident, Heinz Burt, the former bassist with 60’s outfit The Tornados, contacted the band. Heinz had long since reverted to a day job selling advertising space in the local paper, but continued to supplement his income by occasional appearances on the revival circuit. He suggested that the band became h...
The relentless UK touring schedule, an unhappy American tour, and the constant demand for Wilko Johnson to produce more songs, had lead to a deep rift between him, and the rest of the band. Feelings worsened, and following a disagreement to use the, ironically named, Lew Lewis track "Lucky Seven" on the bands fourth album, "Sneaking Suspicion" Wilk...

The band had been particularly impressed by a young guitarist from Wembley, but had decided instead to offer the position to Crippen due to his greater experience on the road.

The pair's unconventional approach to the recording industry had brought them success with a number of acts including The Damned, Elvis Costello, and Madness, but much like the Feelgoods, St...
As the band pushed on, talk of a new album to follow "Primo" quickly became a reality, and the band decided to record what was to become "The Feelgood Factor" in Monnow Valley Studios in Wales. The usual "Let's crack on" Feelgood work ethic resulted in twelve excellent tracks, but as the band sat listening in approval to the fruits of their labour,...
News of Lee’s death spread quickly and, by the weekend, almost every newspaper in the UK had announced the loss. Laudatory Obituaries soon appeared in most of the broadsheets mourning the loss describing him as "A credit to the Essex man and the traditions of British R&B" As for the future, seventeen years earlier, Dr.Feelgood without Wilko Johnson...
Gage's eventual departure had not been entirely unforeseen, and the remaining members had already been scouting for a possible replacement in the event of his loss. Over the years of playing festivals all over Europe, the band had often found themselves bumping into old friends playing in a number of touring British R&B acts, but it was a chance en...
