Oil City Confidential

Guitarist Wilko Johnson, moving like a fugitive, guides us through the oil refineries of Canvey Island, where Dr. Feelgood emerged from the fog and rust. Archival footage from the 70s captures sweat-drenched pub gigs where the band's raw, urgent rhythm and blues detonated the boredom of the prog era. Director Julien Temple stitches together interviews, gritty archive material, and the atmosphere of industrial decline, tracing how four lads from an estuary island lit the fuse for the punk explosion.
