Love Stinks: J. Geils Band

So love doesn't always work out. Who hasn't been there? This is the album for that. I doubt there was a party in the 80's that didn't play this entire album since every song on it is a winner. One thing J.Geils Band knew how to do well was mix their blues-influenced rock with new wave, humor and have a lot of contagious fun doing it. Everyone feels a little better after listening. And if there's anyone that hasn't heard  the track, "No Anchovies Please" yet, you've only lived a partial life.


But if you'd like a little more entertainment while waiting for the download to finish, check out SleeveFace and the original promo video is still pretty good too.
