Dr. Feelgood

Classic Rock magazine describes the style they developed back then as “razor-sharp R&B”, combining the soul of black music – particularly the blues – with the brashness of the emerging punk movement.

Formed in 1970 on Canvey Island, Essex, Dr Feelgood reached fans of all stripes with their album *Stupidity* following their No. 1 hit in the UK charts. Further successes with singles followed, including songs such as ‘Roxette’, ‘Back in the Night’, ‘Milk and Alcohol’ and ‘Down at the Doctors’. Their cover of ‘See You Later Alligator’ even achieved gold status!

With Kevin Morris on drums, Phil Mitchell on bass and Gordon Russell on guitar, musicians from the final line-up featuring original singer Lee Brilleaux have been performing on stage since 1983. He passed away in 1994 and was replaced in 1999 by Robert Kane (formerly of The Animals).

Although Dr Feelgood continue to release albums – most recently *Live in Caen* (2024) and *Damn Right!* (2022) – their captivating live show remains their unmistakable trademark! You can still feel the energy with which the band once brought the house down in music clubs all over the world.
