  • One of the great party tunes of all time.

    Note the way they transition from a modified reggae to amplified funk.

    Saw them open for Van Morrison in 1970 at Symphony Hall Boston. Stole the show.

    Of course, they were the local heroes.

  • They take if from a reggae to an amped up funk to just jammin' .

    How often do you see the keyboardist join the drummer for a drum duet???

    Went to elementary and jr. high with Seth Justman - the aforementioned keyboardist.

  • Hey EMHO3 - You got that backwards! I've seen The Geils Band 6-times ('74-'83), and they warm-up for NOBODY (including the Stones @ MSG in '82)! Peter Frampton warmed-up for Geils in '75-'76, and later added George and the Destroyers to the warm-up mix!

  • Man - I just got chills watching this vid - THE GREATEST LIVE BAND EVER !!! Growing up near Detroit we had a love affair with them that was unstoppable - just blows me away - thanx for sharing this with us funkjudgeUK ! 

  • seth..? are you shittin me...steve jo bladd.....daniel klien..? magic dick....dreamin.

  • Saw them in '78, warming up for Peter Frampton. They blew him off the stage. Then, I saw them in '81 and they were still great!

  • seen them in Phillie in the hey day, then Hancher in Iowa City just before they broke up, what a band!

  • WOW!!! Stephen Jo and Seth!!!! 

  • @MegaBob77777  ME TOO BROTHER!

  • @johnnydontdoit ..From what I know Stephen has retired from the music biz. I also recall from the Geils split in the 80's that he was really ticked at Peter about how things went down. I suspect that there is no love lost between Stephen and Peter. For the record I am a dire hard Geils fan since 1974 so it pains me to say this but I believe it is true.

  • This song is even better live, thanks!!
