 Just found out the original J. Geils Band is coming to Columbus to play

Lord yes, the original band (the first two albums) was incredible.  
"First I Look at the Purse," "Milk and Alcohol," etc  Before they 
degenerated into goofiness, they were briefly one of the very best 
bands around.  Yes, Viriginia, there was a time when Peter Wolf had

I have friends, including my 30 years-worth best one, who were in Boston in
the late sixties to very early seventies and saw and heard the BEFORE the
first LP band, when they were called  "The J. Geils Quartet" I believe, and
I'm told they were even cooler... There used to be a poster at my friend's
house of this "Quartet" opening for the 1969-Clarence style  Byrds at the
Boston Tea Party, I think...
It wasn't much after that I was playing those memorable first LPs onn the
radio...And I'll admit to likin 'em right up through the Love
Stinks/Centerfold period...But yeha, those first blooz records were tops.

I agree, the early material was fantastic...as a greater Bostonian (the
'burb she is growing), I of course have a fondness for the boys...  BTW,
has anyone heard/picked up Peter Wolf's latest "Fool's Parade"?  It's his
best solo album by far!  "Long way back again" and "Anything at all" are
really pretty numbers.  It's good to hear him back in form.  Duke Levine
plays guitar on the whole disc which is a special treat.  I went with
Stacey and Al to see Wooden Leg play at the Lizard last winter and Duke sat
in for the night...Jimmy and the rest of the band are amazing enough and
adding Duke to the mix just pushed the talent pool through the roof...  

But I digress, Mr. Wolf's mellowed a bit, a little of that fire of
yesteryear is gone, but he's still got the voice and the heart...  He still
seems the true believer!

And Peter Wolf was one of the most influential, crazy DJ's in the country
during that early period when WBCN was a real radio station and actually
gave a flying flip about music.
