Geils Band, a song that is rumored to have been inspired by Peter Wolf’s marriage to Faye Dunaway. The 78th video to premiere on MTV was the video for Love Stinks by J. Yes, there was a time when the M actually did stand for music. Over the course of 24 hours, 166 unique music videos were played on MTV. In the process introducing the JGB to the MTV generation.įreeze Frame was also a smorgasbord of sounds in headphones & good hi end system.ħ.Ladies Invited (1973).better than Bloodshot & Hot Line but not as good as Nightmaresħ.On August 1st, 1981, MTV premiered. & the opening title track & the remake of the Strangeloves - Night Time are in the top 5 studio moments in the JGB historyĦ.Freeze Frame (1981).pushing the sound of the Love Stinks album to its very limits & without sounding contrite or pompous the band produced a bold ,well rounded hi tech White boy R&B blast that brought the group triumphantly into a new decade. The JGB was one of those bands that their greatest moments were on stage, but the band did manage some very enjoyable studio music as well.ġ.The J.Geils Band (1970).the sound of a greasy bunch of funky Northern white boys who had dreams of becoming the next Rolling Stones & a fine debut & my intro to JGB in 1970Ģ.Live - Full House (1972).along with Humble Pie -Performance / Rockin The Fillmore(1971) LFH was the perfect snap shot of live Rock circa '71-72ģ.Monkey Island (1977).the record that proved the JGB had the smarts to go with the chops, although IMO the title track was bloated & redundant, regardless MI is still a lost 70s classicĤ.Sanctuary (1978).the title track plus a few other tracks is the closest the band ever got to the Stones sound & performance.ĥ.Nightmares (1974).the best of the mid 70s era JGBĥ.Love Stinks (1980).the sound of a excellent dance & party band embracing change & doing a damn fine job in the process. My preferred JGB music in order of appreciation.
