ABOUT ME
The J. Geils Band was formed in the late 1960s in Boston as a three piece jug style blues band. The original name of the group was, Snoopy The Sopwith Camel and then later as The J. Geils Blues Band; due to J.Geils being under exclusive contract with his personal manager. In 1970 Atlantic Records President Mr. Ahmet Ertegun sent promotion man Mario Medius (the Big M) to see another group performing in Boston known as Dr. John and the Night Trippers. J. Geils was the opening act. Seeing the Geils Band performance, the Big M was blown away and requested that Mr. Ertigen sign the Band on with Atlantic Records. Upon meeting with Mr. Ertigen, J. Geils and the Band agreed to drop the word Blues from the Bands name, hence the J. Geils Band and was immediately signed on to Atlantic Records. Thats when I came on board working as a musician and Promotion Manager for Atlantic Records and arranged their first N.J.appearance Concert at The Capitol Theater in Passaic with owner Mr. Jon Scher. We formed a great comradere which continues to exist today and will continue to go on through the years. After many album releases and nearing the end of their contractual agreement with Atlantic Records, the Geils Band signed on with E.M.I. America Records a division of Capitol Records. With the promotion of E.M.I. America Records, the new management team of Jebb Hart and Bob Hinkle and the use of MTV videos the Band had a 1 record in 1982 Centerfold finally reaching their well deserved aclaim. Unfortunately, the Bands demise came in 1983 with each member going their seperate ways with their careers. Peter Wolf lead singer and frontman launching a songwriting and solo career; J. Geils and Magic Dick formed a blues band called Bluestime; J. also has an exotic car shop in Mass. and Magic has also designed his own line of harmonicas; Seth went on to recording and producing and has worked with Debra Harry of Blondie and is also currently working on his own new CD; Danny Klein after returning to being a culinary chef, formed a group of his own known as Stonecrazy currently playing the Boston area with a new CD release; and also another group called D.K.'s FullHouse celebrating the music of The J. Geils Band. He also has a new restaurant called "Z Square" in the Boston' Harvard Square; lastly and unfortunately Stephen Jo Bladd has chosen to remain in retirement with the exception of playing at D.K.'s Birthday Party in May 2006 and a few guest appearances with all the original members of the group. The band did a 1999 Houseparty tour with all the original members excluding Stephen Jo who cited personal reasons. The Band was inducted into Bostons Rock n' Roll Hall of Fame; and in 2005 to present was nominated for the world Rock n' Roll Hall Of Fame. Long Live THE BAD BOYS FROM BOSTON may they Rock On forever....
