It looks like there is some hope for Wilko Johnson in his battle with cancer:

Great to hear, whishing him all the best.

brilliant news. Thanks for the update.

Wilko is a legend.

That's got to be in the 'Good News Today" thread!

Who would have thought it possible?

 

I really liked this bit from the link;

"...(speaking just before the operation) There is a small chance of dying, but that's nothing, because for over a year I have been living with a 100% chance of dying."

 

I send out my best wishes for him. Top Bloke.

 

Thanks very much for posting this, Ian.

Great news for Wilko. I know his feeling, two years ago this month I received my Blood Marrow Transplant that gave me a new lease on life from my cancer. CANCER SUCKS!

My prayers are with him!

 

I like his work very much and am a fan of Dr. Feelgood and anything else he takes part in!

 

He and Lee Brilleaux (Lee John Collinson) were brilliant together! That seething/acidic harmonica attack of Brilleaux's and Wilko Jonson's (John Peter Wilkinson) chops were phenomenal!

 

In a new-age pioneering of Punk they kept throwing down old-school blues rhythms and riffs that just worked!!!
