Wilko Johnson

has died

, the pubs are in mourning.

In 2013, the English guitarist and singer reported that he had cancer;

nine years later, at 75, cancer has ended his life.

Dr. Feelgood

was the soundtrack to British bars during the 1970s and 1980s to the point that his tacky, rowdy rock was dubbed
