Live Berlin house music ..

Last night I watched Keith Richards - Under The influence. It's on Netflix.
It's a great insight into the man and the musician but even more so the whole British love of genuine American blues. Some loved it so they plagiarise it but more loved it because they recognised the value of it.

Also worth mentioning is Oil City Confidential https://www.imdb.com/title/tt1379092/ (director Julian Temple) which initially seems to be about Canvey Island and Dr Feelgood but then leans more toward the life of Wilco Johnston... which is not what you would expect at all!


The story of Dr Feelgood, four men in cheap suits who crashed out of Canvey Island in the early '70s, sandpapered the face of rock'n'roll, leaving all that came before a burnt-out ruin - four estuarine John-the-Baptists to Johnny Rotten's anti-Christ. Taking London by storm, they sped through Europe and conquered the UK with No 1 chart success, before imploding just as punk was born and America beckoned with open arms. Contributions from members of The Clash, Blondie and The Sex Pistols join Dr Feelgood with collaborators Jools Holland and Alison Moyet to tell the story of Canvey, '70s England and the greatest local band in the world.
