Biography

Edit

Dr. Feelgood are a British pub rock band, which formed in mid 1971. The name of the band is slang for heroin, or for doctors who are prepared to overprescribe drugs. In 1962 the name was adopted by the American blues pianist and singer Willie Perryman (also known as "Piano Red") who recorded his song "Dr Feel-Good" as "Dr Feelgood & The Interns". The song was covered by several British beat groups including Johnny Kidd & The Pirates, who used it as the b-side to one of their singles and it is from there, allegedly, that it was picked up by the band.
