Not quite Jake & Elwood... but close
An album I've been digging... a.k.a. the Music I Ran To This Sunday Afternoon.. |
J. Geils Band The Morning After 1971 | |
I Don't Need You No More Whammer Jammer (Juke Joint Jimmy) So Sharp The Usual Place Gotta Have Your Love Looking For A Love Gotta Find Me A New Love Cry One More Time Floyd's Hotel It Ain't What You Do (It's How You Do It!) (Juke Joint Jimmy) |
What a fun album. I'm not sure what possessed me to check out the J. Geils band but I listened to their first album sometime last year and it was surprisingly really good! Here's the band with the follow-up to their debut and it's just as good or maybe even better! It's almost Blues Brothers-ish with lots of crankin' bass rhythms and harmonica and.... and fun! I can easily picture Jake and Elwood crankin' out several of these tunes. Just wow. This is a band that I once upon had no idea about, except for their Freeze Frame album and maybe some stuff from Love Stinks (or is that just a song and not an album?) In any case, I knew their MTV popular stuff and that's it. This blows that stuff away!!! Almost a Favorite Album of Mine.... not quite but close. If anyone is put off by Centerfold, I don't blame them but I say Open Ye Mind and Dig Thy Early 70's J. Geils Band!!!!

Check out Blow Your Face Out. It is what a live album should be.
"That's no bowling ball, that's my wife!"- great bit off the Love Stinks album
