The J. Geils Band “You’re Gettin’ Even While I’m Gettin’ Odd”
New York City-born guitarist John Geils, Jr., who gave his name to his band, the J. Geils Band, passed away yesterday at the age of 71. The J. Geils Band released fourteen albums, including 1981’s Freeze Frame, which produced their biggest hit, “Centerfold.” The band released their last album, You’re Gettin’ Even While I’m Gettin’ Odd, in 1984, and in memory of Geils, that album’s title track is today’s Daily Eighties Flashback.
