Mark Radcliffe and his buddy Wammo set off on a funny yet poignant search for the band who made the record that changed their lives 30 years earlier.

Dr Feelgood's Down by the Jetty epitomised the band's driving blues style, driven by Wilko Johnson's guitar licks and Lee Brilleaux's menacing vocals.

Their journey takes them from Manchester University to Canvey Island.

Contributors include Bob Geldof and Paul Weller.
