About this product
Product Information
Lee Brilleaux, the charismatic star of proto-punk R&B reprobates Dr Feelgood, was one of rock'n'roll's greatest frontmen. But he was also one of its greatest gentlemen - a class act with heart, fire, wanderlust and a wild streak. Exploding out of Canvey Island in the early 1970s - an age of glam rock, post-hippy folk and pop androgyny - the Feelgoods, with Lee Brilleaux and Wilko Johnson at the helm, charged into London, grabbed the pub rock scene by the throat and sparked a revolutionary new era, proving that you didn't have to be middle class, wearing the 'right clothes' or living in the 'right place' to succeed.Product Identifiers

A compelling read for any Dr Feelgood fan.
I'm a big fan of Dr Feelgood. I have both of the late great Wilko Johnson's books, so I had to buy Lee's autobiography too. It was a compelling read. I never new Lee was such a complex person with so many conflicting personalities. I would recommend this book to any Dr Feelgood fan.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned
