+1 on J.Geils Band. I remember the pal that turned me onto the 1st record saying, as he dropped the needle on the groove, "it's a mellow(!) rock'n'roll record". After the 1st coupla tunes I told him; "it's mellow 'cause you've got the volume turned down, crank it!!";) I remember going to the Rockpile (a small warehouse that was converted to a music venue, yr basic sweaty dump, I LOVED the joint!) to see the J. Geils Band 2nd billing to Edgar Winter's White Trash (listen to 'Full House' and than 'Roadwork' to hear what I heard that night!). All for $7.50!! Talk about a rockin' evening, whatanight!!
