So said Wilko in a recent interview, having been diagnosed in late 2012 with terminal pancreatic cancer. But despite the doctors’ worst predictions he continues to perform and present himself with vigour and a new zest for life. “Man, there’s nothing like being told you’re dying to make you feel alive.” Amen. And whether you’re black, white, green, atheist or believer, it’s what you put into life that’s going to get you anything, or nothing, at the end. And into it Wilko is putting his all.
