Dr Feelgood - She Does It Right

This clip is from a program called the Geordie Scene it used to go out in the H.T.V. area at about midday on Sunday just about the time i usually arose from a night out. The presenter was a dreadful Jimmy Saville wannabe called Dave Eager who dressed in the most appalling deckchair striped jumpsuits and once fronted a band called Dave Eager and the Beavers!

This was the first time i saw the Feelgoods on t.v. They had quite a few other groups on, i seem to remember seeing Shakin' Stevens, Mungo Jerry and The Sweet but nothing could touch this performance from the Doctor. I have a pirate copy of the whole show but the quality is poor and it's in black and white - someone somewhere has a reasonable colour rip and i envy them. If you ever see it watch out for the bit where Mr Eager tries to force feed young girls in the audience with stotty cakes. Oh yeah i've just remembered there was a dreadful cabaret style performance by Showaddywaddy one particularly hungover Lord's day morn'.
