DR. FEELGOOD AT THE RANCH HOUSE


Legendary rhythm and blues stars Dr. Feelgood are set to play a gig in Market Deeping!


The world famous band are heading to the Iron Horse Ranch House in Market Deeping on Saturday September 17 for a performance that is set to be a night to remember for music fans.



Formed on Canvey Island in Essex in the early 1970s Dr. Feelgood remain one of the most popular and exciting live rhythm and blues acts in the world. The raw and uncompromising style of their performance resulted in the album Stupidity that immediately went to the number one position in the UK charts.


Dr. Feelgood have also enjoyed global success with a string of hit singles including Roxette, Back in the Night, Milk and Alcohol, Down at the Doctors, She Does it Right, Going Back Home and See You Later Alligator – which gave the group their first gold record.



The last album to feature Lee Brilleaux – Down at the Doctors, was recorded live at the Dr. Feelgood Music Bar on Canvey Island, (now the site of the Oysterfleet Hotel) just two months before he died.


The current line-up features the rhythm section Kevin Morris on drums and Phil Mitchell on bass (both 39 years), the return of the legendary Gordon Russell on guitar, and Robert Kane (formerly of The Animals) who joined in 1999.



Julien Temple’s film Oil City Confidential released on 2nd February 2010 tells the story of the band’s formative years featuring the Wilko Johnson era.


May 2011 saw the digitally remastered re release of Chessmasters originally released in 2000 on EMI Records, the band’s tribute to the Chess label, home to many of the finest blues artists of the 20th century and the first Dr Feelgood album to feature Robert on vocals.


April 2021 saw the release of their Greatest Hits on Grand Records.
