So one of their big Pop-hits of the 80's was " Centerfold". ( J. Geils Band - Centerfold (Official Music Video) ua-cam.com/video/BqDjMZKf-wg/v-deo.html ) But most of their classic stuff is from the 70's. Peter Wolf was the singer. (he had a solo hit Lights Out ) . Anyway, one of their big tunes was Musta Got Lost. The Live version.. It has a very funny intro. ( Musta Got Lost (Live) ua-cam.com/video/QDBoPLCeMKA/v-deo.html ) Another one was Freeze Frame from 81 ( J. Geils Band - Freeze Frame ua-cam.com/video/wHo43B6nu60/v-deo.html )
Welcome to the wonderful world of the J. Geils (pronounced "Guile -s" or "Guy-les" if you prefer) band. As a longtime Boston resident, I can attest that these guys were the ultimate Boston party band. J. Geils was the lead guitarist (he sadly passed away a few years ago) and Peter Wolf was the lead vocalist. So many great songs. They had a string of hits from the early 1970s through the early 1980s. From the same album as this song: Come Back From the following album (Freeze Frame): Freeze Frame (title track), Centerfold, Flamethrower From their early days: Whammer Jammer (best heard live - there's an excellent live recording on the Best Of J. Geils album) (Ain't Nothin' but a) House Party Give it to Me Must've Got Lost Where Did Our Love Go?
Hey Angela! I’d love to see you react to their songs “Flamethrower” and Freeze Frame.” Also “Centerfold.” “Flamethrower” is a jam! But for whatever reason, everyone ALWAYS mentions 👆🏻their other 2 (especially Centerfold) but “Flamethrower” is a sure rock out song to be heard! 💖🌺✌️👍
Nice song for today for all those not having the kind of day you would hope to have. J Geils is awesome and were big in the 70s and 80s, they had a string of hard hitting albums that featured rock, blues, R & B and some soul at times with a true Boston sound and attitude. They were very energetic and brought down the house live, I was lucky to see them several times, they were the real deal and you would love to hear more. Try Give It to Me, Serve You Right to Suffer and Looking For a Love. Thanks for taking a chance on this powerhouse from back in the day. Enjoy! You look great, my dear, happy evening to you. 🎸
The leader of the band is J Geils he’s a guitar player the guy who singing his name is Peter Wolf. What a great band they were & fun to watch live On stage.
Great band! Cue up "Loveitus" from the "Hotline" LP. The original house party band, J Guy-ells is how it's pronounced. If you like hard drivin' party band music, definitely give a listen to the "Full House" LP, all of it. Happy Valentine's day beautiful.
If you want to hear the J Geils Band at their best, try Whammer Jammer off the Full House album or Musta Got Lost off the Blow Your Face Out album. Both are live versions and this band was at their very best live!
Gotta,love Peter Wolfe, such a very good singer and performer, such a "ham". Haha. So beloved in his hometown of Boston. Many good,songs a,shout out to the band. Great job!!!!
I hope your attitude toward valentines day isn't because someone broke your heart. I can't comprehend that because you are one the most beautiful women I have ever seen. I enjoy your channel.
"Come Back" is a great song from the same album as this song. "Give it to Me" is funky and from the 70's. "Must've got Lost" and Centerfold are also great songs. "Angel in Blue" for a ballad.
I've seen the J Geils Band live 5 or 6 times in the early 70s, mostly in the Boston area clubs like Paul's Mall and the Performance Center. They are a great club band. They "TEAR IT UP"!!! Best album by far is a live album, "FULL HOUSE". Hard Drivin Man, First I Look at the Purse, Lookin' for Love are all hot. Wammer Jammer is one of the great harmonica songs. We call their music " BOSTON BLUES". Please play more of their music. Yours truly, Hot Rod
You must have read my mind! I remember this song was a jingle for Swiffer or some such product in the early 2010's I believe! The mop was heartbroken in the advertisement! It was quite hilarious! Unfortunately Love Stinks sometimes! They also sing the song Centerfold among other tunes! I'm forgetting Freeze Frame by them! I think you'll dig it!
Angela, glad you liked J Geils. They are a fun band. Wonder y you're doing a FU LOVE on Valentines day? They also did a decent cover of "Land of a Thousand Dances"
They have another love song I'M LOOKNG FOR LOVE I Musta Got Lost Aint Nutihn But a House Party GIVE IT T O ME ..They are the greatest good time party rock funk band along with James Brown and his band ..Nobody can dislike J Geils Band ..
It's like you're playing all the hits of my teenage years! Awesome...I've enjoyed this week from you. I have a couple suggestions: Supertramp "Goodbye Stranger", "Take The Long Way Home". If you like them I will suggest some others. Check out some Pink Floyd....Their usual go to is from "The Wall" which was brilliant but I kinda like some of their other stuff off the beaten path just as much if not more. "Coming Back To Life" is so beautiful I could cry.
Peter Wolf the lead singer gave personality to the J.Geils Band. They were never the same after he left. So enjoy his contributions in such songs as, GIVE IT TO ME, ANGEL IN BLUE, & the absolutely scalding ferocity of FLAMETHROWER. Nothing better !!
Please react to 70’s J. Geils Band music. First I Look at the Purse, Homework, Musta Got Lost, Detroit Breakdown, Southside Shuffle and many more great songs…..
Pronounced the Jay GUY-ells Band. There big hit was Centerfold, followed by Freeze Frame. My own favorite J. Geils songs are Angel in Blue and Piss on the Wall. They are NOT a one hit wonder, and I wouldn't be surprised to see them, eventually, make the Rock HOF. Agree that the biggest FU to love song would be Harry Nilsson's You're Breaking My Heart, but, it is guaranteed to be de-monetized.
Angela, the name is pronounced like the J. Guy-ulls Band. Other great songs of theirs are Centerfold (funny sexy, at least for me 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣), Freeze Frame, Musta Got Lost and Give It To Me.
Wanted to let you know that Home Free dropped a surprise Valentines Day video, a fabulous cover of Unchained Melody. You really need to see and hear this one!
It's Geils, rhymes with miles. Peter Wolfe is such a performer and a great singer. Freeze Frame, Centerfold, Give it to Me and I Do are all very good. Worth reacting to.
Here's 6 tips for the "FU Love" category: "Real Love" by Lil' Suzy ua-cam.com/video/8JvXv1SwbDY/v-deo.html "I don't want you back" by Rios Sisters ua-cam.com/video/MzicufDYW2g/v-deo.html "I used to" by Natalie ua-cam.com/video/uW4sMGRvEuY/v-deo.html "Sorry I came back" by Mystie ua-cam.com/video/7xjN1v4OQ-A/v-deo.html "Bad of the heart" by George LaMond ua-cam.com/video/o2s4qsyr7aA/v-deo.html The best for last, "Sounds of heartbreak" by Angela Garcia ua-cam.com/video/jRTo45IZYQw/v-deo.html
You should watch the movie, Love Stinks, with French Stuart from 3rd Rock sitcom...it.is.hilarious!! Not related to this song but its a fun song too.....
Don't know if "FU Love" is still going on, but if it is, I recommend Bob Dylan, "Idiot Wind." Never was a more venomous breakup song ever written. I know his voice isn't for everyone, but seriously....check out the studio version of this if you can find it. The ultimate breakup song.
Hi Angela! I know it's a day after Valentines 💝 but you gotta react to "Love Rears it's Ugly Head" by Living Colour pretty please with a 🍒 on top😍 I think you'll like error love it!!
Hey Angela - I don't see any reactions out there to Miami Sound Machine (Gloria Estefan). They were so huge in the 80's. Here is a great upbeat song of theirs - "Get On Your Feet" ua-cam.com/video/JPOSGVUYgVQ/v-deo.html

(Ain't Nothin' but a) House Party
Give it to Me
Must've Got Lost
Where Did Our Love Go?
Only one syllable..
It's actually pronounced: GILES
Like Giles Corey.
LoL I always remember the Wedding Singer whenever I hear this song. 😂 Yup this is a great Valentines song.

I've seen them three times in concert and they were one of the funnest groups ever.
The leader of the band is J Geils he’s a guitar player the guy who singing his name is Peter Wolf. What a great band they were & fun to watch live On stage.
The Live Full House album is their best. Saw them live 3 times and Peter Wolf was quite the entertainer. They were awesome live!!!
Center fold (true story) and Freeze Frame 2 great songs by J Geils (Gu I eLs)
Also “Flamethrower.”
I cant help but think of The Wedding Singer every time i hear this....
Great band! Cue up "Loveitus" from the "Hotline" LP. The original house party band, J Guy-ells is how it's pronounced. If you like hard drivin' party band music, definitely give a listen to the "Full House" LP, all of it.

More J. Geils: "Ain't Nothin' But a Party" "Lookin' for a Love" and a classic instrumental, "Whammer Jammer"
"Come Back" is a great song from the same album as this song. "Give it to Me" is funky and from the 70's. "Must've got Lost" and Centerfold are also great songs. "Angel in Blue" for a ballad.
This song reminds me of the movie The Wedding Singer with Adam Sandler and Drew Barrymore. He has a lot of 80's songs in his movies.
I've seen the J Geils Band live 5 or 6 times in the early 70s, mostly in the Boston area clubs like Paul's Mall and the Performance Center. They are a great club band. They "TEAR IT UP"!!!

They also sing the song Centerfold among other tunes! I'm forgetting Freeze Frame by them! I think you'll dig it!
I never knew who sang this song, I only know it from The Wedding Singer. Thanks!😊🥰
J. Geils (Jay-Giles) Band was your staple house / keg party type music back in the 80's.
So many great songs of their Freeze Frame album! Try Angel in blue!
Seen them 1983. I sat on second row. I threw a joint on stage. Dallas TX
Good way to help a broken heart. Thanx Angela
I love your substitution for Valentine's Day.
Angela, glad you liked J Geils. They are a fun band. Wonder y you're doing a FU LOVE on Valentines day? They also did a decent cover of "Land of a Thousand Dances"
FYI Geils rhymes with Miles
They have another love song I'M LOOKNG FOR LOVE I Musta Got Lost Aint Nutihn But a House Party GIVE IT T O ME ..They are the greatest good time party rock funk band along with James Brown and his band ..Nobody can dislike J Geils Band ..
There live album was a must have in the 70s.
Centerfold by them is one of the most recognizable songs of all time. Check it out.
It's like you're playing all the hits of my teenage years! Awesome...I've enjoyed this week from you. I have a couple suggestions: Supertramp "Goodbye Stranger", "Take The Long Way Home".

Look for them live at winter and 1977 " Must Have Got Lost " 🎸
First, absolutely true, love stinks…second saw them in concert in 81 backing up the stones…Peter is off the chain, and it was a great show
Saw them in 1980 at pine knob in Michigan
Peter Wolf the lead singer gave personality to the J.Geils Band. They were never the same after he left. So enjoy his contributions in such songs as, GIVE IT TO ME,
ANGEL IN BLUE,
& the absolutely scalding ferocity of FLAMETHROWER. Nothing better !!
I wanna hear J Geils and the "wooba gooba with the green teeth!"
centerfold, freeze frame, come back baby
+1 to anyone else whose first thought was 'The Wedding Singer' lol
SOO TRUE
Great band and the song fits the vibe!!! 💯😜❤✌
Please react to 70’s J. Geils Band music. First I Look at the Purse, Homework, Musta Got Lost, Detroit Breakdown, Southside Shuffle and many more great songs…..
Another great J. Geils song is. “I must’ve got lost”
Sooooo true!😩
It's The J. GILES...pronounced like that, like " miles ". And check out there hit, " Centerfold ", they often had a lot of humor in their songs.
Hey friend I love that song ❤️😍
Just for those who might remember Peter Wolfe was married to Faye Dunaway. Maybe this is a reference to a relationship gone south 🤷♂️
Yes!! @Kimberlini.... you gotta check out "Flamethrower"!!
Happy Valentine’s Day Angela!

I want to request a song reaction to the song "Fool If You Think It's Over" by Chris Rea. Came out in 1978. It's a great song..😎
Centerfold is their biggest hit. Freeze Frame was probably their next big hit
Love the FU Love theme. Funny! You are lucky I am old because I think I have a crush...J Geils (say hard g like in "gonna" - geils).
Love stinks but we create the smell. - Peter Wolf
Angela, the name is pronounced like the J. Guy-ulls Band. Other great songs of theirs are Centerfold (funny sexy, at least for me 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣), Freeze Frame, Musta Got Lost and Give It To Me.
"~Love Stinks! But I love the smell!~"
you've probably heard Centerfold.... Musta got lost, and Flamethrower are a couple more
Words to live by.
It's pronounced J. Giles Band.
Love the new hairstyle.
React to their songs Centerfold and Freeze Frame please. 😘
Wanted to let you know that Home Free dropped a surprise Valentines Day video, a fabulous cover of Unchained Melody. You really need to see and hear this one!
haha check out Adam Sandler performing this song in The Wedding Singer. Its gold.
Great in concert
You can take any J Geils Band album pick any song from it, and it will be great... pronounced Giles with a long "i" as in the Nile River
You're So Vain by Carly Simon
Already Gone by the Eagles
Jar of Hearts by Christina Perri
(Also Bang Bang Bang by her)
I’d think you’d enjoy Angel in Blue also by this group. Pretty popular band when I was in jr high. Glad you enjoyed
The gut saying "Love Stinks" is J. Geils.
It's Geils, rhymes with miles. Peter Wolfe is such a performer and a great singer. Freeze Frame, Centerfold, Give it to Me and I Do are all very good. Worth reacting to.

Adam Sandler's version is hilarious from the Wedding Singer.

You’re Breaking My Heart by Harry Nilsson is a perfect song for today.
Don't know if "FU Love" is still going on, but if it is, I recommend Bob Dylan, "Idiot Wind." Never was a more venomous breakup song ever written. I know his voice isn't for everyone, but seriously....check out the studio version of this if you can find it. The ultimate breakup song.
Centerfold by them
Suggestion: 1) "Dream On" and 2) Sweet Emotion" by AEROSMITH
Freeze Frame please.
“Centrefold”. Hard “G” in Geils
DETROIT BREAKDOWN...ROCKS!!!
Centerfold is their most popular song.
Totally fun
Freeze Frame!!
Check out "Try To Believe" by Oingo Boingo!

The cars moving in stereo please!
RIP J GIELS.
Respectfully, spell it right...
I never liked this one. But I loved "I musta got lost," and "Centerfold." You will come away surprised to say the least.
BEST LOVE SONG EVER 😆💘
Yes it does, but it's almost, or mostly a necessity, yet it does stink...
My theme song
Oh yeah, SURRENDER, forgot.
Geils is pronounced "GUY ells"
Geils rhymes with miles, G like good.
try (The Flame ) by Cheap Trick I think you will like it !
Hah, you really are keeping up with the Anti-Valentine's Day theme!
Just posted this on my Twitter...But...It wouldn't stink w you Angela...It would be sublime! 🙂🥰
Oh No!! LOL!!
Hi Angela! I know it's a day after Valentines 💝 but you gotta react to "Love Rears it's Ugly Head" by Living Colour pretty please with a 🍒 on top😍 I think you'll like error love it!!
If you want your mind blown listen to No Anchovies Please off of the same album. Some weird shit.
No Anchovies Please by J. Geils Band
Check out Freeze Frame
Hey Angela - I don't see any reactions out there to Miami Sound Machine (Gloria Estefan).
They were so huge in the 80's. Here is a great upbeat song of theirs -
"Get On Your Feet" ua-cam.com/video/JPOSGVUYgVQ/v-deo.html
