Very sad. Too young.

 

[MichaelWinicki]

Yep, "Centerfold" was one of those early and hugely popular MTV videos that was on all the time.

Another band the local stations wouldn't play until they made it on MTV.

RIP.

Just makes me feel so old. I mean he was 71 and the first time I saw/heard him I was a teenager. So now I realize I am old as well.

Don't forget rage in a cage...I think it was a b-side to centerfold or freeze frame but it was still popular.

And how can you forgot....LOVE STINKS...OH YEAAAAAHHHH LOVE STINKS

Have the J Geils band best of on my phone music collection for years now.

That reminds me... I had the album in the 80s.

He did an Adam and Eve skit at the of a song...

he ad libbed.... Adam said.... "get over here witch and fetch me one of them apples...."
Eve - "that was the last straw for Eve... she took that apple and mashed it in his face"

We thought we were cute... we called my uncle in... said hey listen to this.... he freaked when he heard the "witch" part..... etc lmao
