British rocker Johnny Spence was born in February 1942, and started playing rock'n'roll already in late 50's. In the early 60's he played bass for Johnny Kidd and the Pirates for five years. Classic Pirates line-up featuring Johnny Spence on bass, Mick Green on guitar and Frank Farley on drums played on most of Johnny Kidd's greatest recordings and hits. They made their first recording on their own (without Kidd) already in 1964, the single "My babe"/"Casting my spell" (featuring Spence also on vocals) is ever since considered a classic. In the mid 70's the classic line-up of the Pirates came back, and very soon got the reputation of being the greatest and wildest rock'n'roll trio of all time. From that time we have the saying "never follow the Pirates". They were unbeatable on stage, and also made some great albums. During all these years Johnny Spence has also played with various other legendary artists, for example bass for Jerry Lee Lewis.

Doctor's Order is Finland's finest and toughest rock'n'roll trio, who started in 1998 and ever since has toured and amazed audiences with its hard driving music and action packed stage shows all over Finland and also in Sweden. So far they have released ten studio albums, which have sold very well and which have got raving reviews. The Pirates and Doctor's Order used to quite a few successful tours together in Finland in 2005-2007. Things led to another, and already in 2007 a six track mini-album "Doctor's Order with Mick Green: "Cutthroat and Dangerous" (Goofin' Records) was released, Johnny Spence guested on one track. Once again one thing led to another and Johnny Spence & Doctor's Order started to tour together, the co-operation started in 2008, and they have been on the road together ever since. The album "Full Throttle No Brakes" was released in 2009, and the follow-up album "Hot and Rockin'" in 2011, both featuring a stunning set of rock'n'roll, rockabilly and rhythm & blues. Both albums have sold well, and got raving reviews everywhere.

Third album "Kickstart Your Mojo" by Johnny and his fellow doctors was released in September 2014 By Goofin' Records. It features 12 new studio recordings, it features both hardrocking and rolling versions of rock'n'roll and rhythm & blues-classics picked by Johnny Spence and also also a bunch of brand new originals written Johnny himself. The sound of the album is tough, rough and huge. This is truely a unique and historical release. A great rock'n'roll record indeed! So once again it's about time to start shakin' all over!
