RIP Wilko Johnson – Neuroendocrine Cancer
I have been following Wilko’s cancer story since December 2015 (and what a story it is)
Read more by clicking here.
Two videos below. Wilko is mainly a guitar player but he also wrote songs and sings too.
Video 1 is 2006 when he was part of Dr Feelgood. Boom Boom.
Video 2 was made with Roger Dawltry (The Who) for the Going back Home tour. Was supposed to be Wilko’s swan song. He opted for that rather than chemotherapy when told he had 12 months to live because of Pancreatic Cancer. Charlie Chan (above) a photographer and also an Oncologist wondered why Wilko was still able to do his fast paced routine …… boom boom!
