Wilko Johnson's Cancer Battle Focus Of New Documentary
. (Classic Rock) The months that Wilko Johnson thought would be his last are the subject of a documentary movie. Made by Julien Temple - who also created Dr Feelgood film Oil City Confidential - The Ecstasy Of Wilko Johnson follows the guitarist through his "farewell tour" to the unexpected surgery that saved his life. He'd refused chemotherapy after being diagnosed with cancer in 2013 and thought he was going to be killed by the tumor in his pancreas. But a pioneering procedure resulted in the all-clear being given last October. Speaking soon after his diagnosis, Johnson said: "I began to feel almost euphoric and the feeling hasn't worn off. I realise that all the things I usually worry about don't matter." Read more here. Classic Rock Magazine is an official news provider for antiMusic.com.
