Who else on BBC radio would follow Barclay James Harvest with Ray Charles? 😄

Sorry to be a know-it-all but Dr.Feelgood got their name from another song called "Doctor Feelgood" recorded in 1964 by Johnny Kidd & The Pirates. Wilko was a huge fan of Mick Green, the Pirates guitar player...... 😀😀

Wot no D J Shadow?

One of my favourite songs......ever.

It's an important album. Shows maturity both lyrically and musically. If you can, listen to the album again by concentrating on the production and the arrangements and you'll get some idea as to where Wilson is heading....

It’s a great book. Bought a copy!

My memory is failing me. Was it you?

This begs another question. Have you toured with that book? If so we may have met. I booked someone to promote it at my local Arts Centre in Bridgwater when I used to manage it. It was about 2 or 3 years ago. The very same Centre that I saw Jake at…

I have the 2 CD set of “Live Performance”. Did you write the book “Beware Of The Bull”? It was that someone else? Sorry if I’ve got you mixed up with someone else.

I grew up with Thackray via his appearances on The Braden Beat. All my family loved his wit. He was the first person I ever saw perform live. That was at my local Arts Centre with my parents. 1976 I think it was. Glad that he is appreciated a lot more than he was when he was alive.

Hi Cerys. Spooky synchronicity strikes again. I had an inkling you would play some Jake Thackray today.... Weird..

I'd put that track in my Top 10 Beach Boys songs...it's a wonderful piece of music....
