One of the comments remarks how this was a pre-Black Sabbath type sound from the 1960s of heavy metal. I can hear that.

BTW,for those of you who think she always wears the shades to "look jazz-cool",she wears them because she was ran over by a car while riding a bicycle,and is hyper-sensitive to light It's a necessity,not an affection.

   Seems appropriate, my backyard is under half foot of water as Lindheimer Creek has overflowed it's banks, again. Thank the Lord for the pier and beam construction of 1904.

Guitarist known as J. Geils found dead in Massachusetts home

GROTON, Massachusetts —
5 Investigates has learned John Warren Geils Jr., the artist known professionally as J. Geils and part of the rock group The J. Geils Band, was found dead in his Groton, Massachusetts home.

 The 71-year-old was found unresponsive by police around 4 p.m. Tuesday after they responded to his home for a well-being check. He was pronounced dead at the scene. Foul play is not suspected at this time.

Geils and the band are best known for their album, "Freeze Frame" and the song "Centerfold," which hit No. 1 for six weeks.

Geils formed the band during his time at Worcester Polytechnic Institute, where he studied mechanical engineering.

At Worcester, he formed J. Geils Blues Band with Danny Klein, Magic Dick Salwitz, Stephen Jo Bladd, and Peter Wolf, with Seth Justman becoming the last member before the band released its debut album in 1970.

The J. Geils Band was influenced by soul music and rhythm and blues, but it moved toward pop and rock by the time the album "Love Stinks" came out in 1980.

After 11 albums, the band's 12th album, "Freeze Frame," hit No. 1 on the Billboard charts for four weeks in 1981 and remained on the chart for 70 weeks. The title track "Freeze Frame" made it to No. 4.

While on tour, opening acts for the band included the Eagles, Billy Joel, ZZ Top and U2.

The band broke up a few years later.

Geils has called Groton his home for 35 years.

Rest In Peace.

Some people are really into that band and unlike some, they didn't have much trouble getting inducted into the HOF; I do like that one song they have Detroit Breakdown, the top 40 is so-so for me but maybe I don't get it.

@sneakypete

Do you have any further description of this album release "Memphis Soul Classics"? Maybe we can find it somehow.  Record company or anything.

So, Stax was in Memphis, we may get some leads yet.

@TomSea

IIRC,it was released some time in the early 80's,and had Albert King,King Crimson,The Staple Singers,Sam and Dave,and pretty much every other serious,as opposed to flash tv,performer on it that had roots to Memphis.

IIRC,this is the tune that kicked it off,and it pretty much remained at this level until the album ended.

BTW,I think I still have some of those "record thingies" stored away somewhere. If I do,that album will be there. The trick will be remembering to look for it and then remembering where they are.
