Wilko Johnson
In tribute to the late Wilko Johnson, another chance to hear him talk in 2013 about the pivotal moments and songs that shaped his life and career.
In tribute to the late Wilko Johnson, another chance to hear an interview from 2013 with the former Dr Feelgood guitarist. Wilko Johnson was diagnosed with terminal cancer of the pancreas.
In this emotional First Time with... Matt Everitt chats to the influential musician, reflecting on his death and why he has chosen not to receive any chemotherapy.
He looks back fondly at a life in music - growing up in Canvey Island, his band's influence on the roots of the British punk scene, and playing with Ian Dury and the Blockheads.
Wilko discusses the pivotal moments and songs that have shaped his life and career.
After this programme was first broadcast in 2013, Wilko underwent a pioneering nine hour procedure to remove the tumour.
