WCVB-TV Boston reports Geils was found dead in his Groton, Massachusetts, home. He had lived in the town for 35 years. He was 71.

My blood runs cold...

R.I.P.

The only song I ever heard was centerfold
R.I.P.

Sad to hear. This was one of the most Underrated bands of the 70s.
Live Full House released in 1972 was an amazing work. With tracks 'First I look at the Purse" and the Harmonica Lead in 'Whammer Jammer" was unprecidented.

When they came back with ' Centerfold' their style had changed so much the old fans abandoned them.

If youve never heard this have a listen.



RIP J.Geils.

Sweet, I love blues with a southern twang and that is some killer harmonica playing. Honestly, I never heard anything he did except centerfold, which was played to effin death years ago.

Same here, I didn't know they had a history.

They Opened for Led Zeplin , they stole the show , we clapped back on
stage for 3 times .
Those dudes had the energy man .

saw um many times back in the '70's .
I'll see um again when I get to Heaven man .

I envy you for seeing Zeppelin live in their heyday.
Saw Plant once and Page once, but not together.
Closest I ever came was the song remains the same movie.
