The later version . Phil Mitchell and Kevin Morris . I think Lee Brilleaux was there when they joined but I’m not sure . Mitchell was a very talented guitar player at school.

Great song … real energy!
I caught the later Dr. Feelgood version at The Jam House … Joules Holland’s place in Birmingham a while back … what a gig!…. still a top band … brilliant live ….
Also caught them later at The Robin in Bilston on a double bill with Eddie and the Hot Rods … who were supporting them … but really surprised me by being the better band on the night. …. also worth catching …

Yeah I knew the late Barrie Masters of Eddie and the Hot rods . Ive has a few beers with Barrie and his brothers ( I was friends with Lennie for years ) . I saw the group in a pub and later in London.
They put out a single called Wooly bully that didn’t sell well then ‘ Do what you wanna do’ took off.
The last time I saw them was in Canvey Island . Tbh they were terrible.

Neither was true. |

If these are music journalists, it's been a couple of decades since anyone interested in music has been involved in music journalism.
