    Found out Wilko had passed, came straight to this video. Honestly his impact on multiple generations of British rock bands, and by extension around the globe, can't really be overstated.
    Absolute legend, RIP Wilko.

      Sorry, Wilko was a deep atheist, a full believer in the Void. See "The Ecstasy of Wilko Johnson": it was a core part of what made not just his life and work, but his death as well, such a superb example for humanity. So, no he won't be playing Let's Make-up and be Friendly with Lee Brilleaux. And that's just the way it is.

    R.I.P. Wilco. An absolute legend, but most of all a real gentleman, who will long be remembered.

    Wilko probably made an everlasting impression on rhythm guitarists all over the world. Eddie van Halen was the wizard, Wilko the riddle. No one can touch his way of locomotion guitar playing.

      Wilko is an original that can't be copied - and at the same time influences a wide variety of players. For me - that's where the rubber meets the road. Amazing character. Have to be him to play him - and he gives something to strive for. And check out the bass player, John B. "Sparko" Sparks playing pumping bass/rhythm guitar on the bass! The whole thing is a great kind of nuts. And they were high on speed. Crazy times. Ordinary lives don't make music of this energy.

    Wrote Lee brilleaux a letter thanking him for his music which I followed when I was in my teens...when I found out he was terminally ill. I got a reply ..treasured it... a few weeks later he passed on. Great band. Great music.

    Possibly my favorite live rock video ever. These guys are focused. Wilko is a mix of hyperspaz and cool rock god. And the crowd is young and innocent looking but digging it, dancing as a single unit.
