    How wistful and nostalgic I become when I hear great bands like this featuring killer Hammond solos and excellent keys. J. Geils is one of those bands who I appreciate even more now than when I first heard them. And I loved them back then. Rock on!

  • @frankkolton1780

    I became a big fan of them after seeing them live for the first time in 74. What a high energy, hard driving band, in no time they had the whole audience standing on the seats, moving and grooving for a whole 2 hour show. They put on some of the best live shows of any group I've ever seen, and I saw most of the big names in the 70s.

    • @erth2man
      @erth2man Год назад +2

I ended up promoting them when I was in the music business on their solo projects but they’re one of the best bands that came throughout the 70s they stuck together for 16 years no personnel change And they still perform solo although J Giles is gone!

    Living in Boston in the mid-70s, catching J. Geils and the James Montgomery Blues Band for free on the Esplanade or at Nickerson Field, both bands would just TEAR IT UP wherever they played. No posing, no pyrotechnics, no big screen backdrops -- just hard-driving thrill-house rock and roll.
