Ailing Dr. Feelgood guitarist Wilko Johnson and Who vocalist Roger Daltrey have recorded a new LP together.
"Going Back Home" is set for release this March, and will feature 10 originals from Johnson, from both his solo career and his bands Dr. Feelgood and Solid Senders, along with a cover of Bob Dylan's "Can You Please Crawl Out Your Window?" The LP was recorded last November at Yellow Fish in Uckfield, England. It will come out on the influential blues, soul, and R&B label Chess Records, which is being revived for this release.
