Wilko Johnson - Back In The Night (the Best Of Wilko Johnson)

The original, distinctive DR. FEELGOOD manic guitarist and songwriter. All the best tracks selected from all of his studio albums from the past 30 years, plus new sessions! Solo versions of Feelgood's Back In The Night, She Does It Right, & Sneakin Suspicion. Extensive, informative notes in 12-page booklet by promoter and Time Out journalist Jim Driver.When Dr. Feelgood burst on the UK scene in 1975 with their energetic R&B, they symbolised a return to the basics and away from the bloated pomposity rock had become. "Their first three studio albums had the same R&B/primal rock/blues character as the original Stones" - Trouser Press. After four albums, guitarist and songwriter Wilko Johnson left over musical differences, and continued with his own band and his remarkable choppy rhythm/lead blues style. Albums like ICE ON THE MOTORWAY, SOLID SENDERS and BARBED WIRE BLUES, plus regular worldwide touring with his excellent rhythm section of Blockheads Norman Watt-Roy and Monti, have kept Wilko's reputation as one of the hottest and renowned r&b guitarists intact. All the favourites on one CD.
