The great man of Canvey Island demonstrates his unique guitar style... on his black and red Stratocaster!

Thanks Bill
I was lucky enough to see Wilko perform a few times with his trio including Norman Watt-Roy on bass, a fabulous live act, Wilko was unique player, a superb entertainer and will be sadly missed.

Brilliant guitarist who was certainly a fan of the (early) Shadows - see the documentary Oil City Confidential.

He also made an album together with Roger Daltrey. Another legend gone...
