Very sorry to hear of John Geil's passing.


Rest in peace John.

I didn't place the name until I read the initialized version.

I still remember the controversy surrounding 'Centerfold'. Fun song, and another part of my past gone.

I remember dancing to a few of his hits as a young teen at non-alcoholic discos.

RIP Sir

I remember seeing him and the band at the old Wembley stadium waaay back. They were warm up for the Stones. Great gig :yep:

I noticed a few of the local and a couple of the national TV news outlets, while reporting on Geils' passing, played footage of the band prominently featuring lead vocalist Peter Wolf in such a way as to imply it was Wolf who was J. Geils. It is unfortunate that, even in passing, Geils is overshadowed and overlooked. Geils helmed a great band and was a respected musician...

RIP, J. Geils...
