Albert Tatlock Posted January 9, 2013 Share Posted January 9, 2013 That's very very sad. Music has few talents and fewer and fewer characters like Wilko. Characteristically brave way to go. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

kidsmoke Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 Ah, heartbreaking. Peace to you, Wilko, and thank you for all the amazing music. Time to pull out the Dr. Feelgood albums and enjoy & pay homage. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Sweet Papa Crimbo Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 Sad news for what looks to be a not very pleasant end game. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Plumplechook Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 So sad. An amazing character - and one of the finest rythym guitarists ever. The Julian Temple doco on Dr Feelgood 'Oil City Confidential' that came out a couple of years ago is one of the best rock docos I've ever seen - and reminded me how much I love this band.
