RHYTHM and blues legends Dr Feelgood are bringing their high-energy act to Blackburn on November 23.

The band have a reputation for putting on killer gigs in the area, with a packed show at Burnley Mechanics last month and a storming set at Burnley Blues Festival a couple of years ago.

The energy and intensity of a Dr Feelgood gig puts a number of newer - and younger - bands to shame.

And although the line-up may have changed several times over the 30-plus years since the band formed, the spirit and passion remains the same.

"We're a good, hard rhythm and blues band," said frontman Robert Kane.

"Always have been, always will be."

Dr Feelgood are at the North Bar on Tuesday, November 23. Doors open 8.30pm. For information call 07891 854390. Tickets, costing £10 are available from Record Exchange, Blackburn.
