Better yet, pick up one of the band's old live records like Blow Your Face Out or even Full House (both feature material from the band's superior Atlantic releases). Shop for Flashback: Best of the J.Geils Band - Audio CD online at an affordable price in Oman. For a more thorough appreciation, invest in the much superior Rhino collection Houseparty: Anthology. As far as compilation records go, this one's the weakest of all the J. I Do (Live At Pine Knob Music Theater, Detroit, MI/1982) by The J.
Wisely, the label chose to completely shun the band's god-awful post- Peter Wolf release You're Getting Even While I'm Getting I'm Getting Odd. Listen to Flashback- Best Of, a playlist curated by The J. It sure would have been nice to hear the live version of "Love Stinks" from Showtime (which is introduced by Wolf's now legendary, "Adam and Eve were smoking weed in the Garden of Eden" rap) or perhaps some other un-released live gems from the band's Freeze Frame tour - their biggest outing ever. Glancing over the track listing, it's obvious that EMI spent next to no time putting together this compilation and decided to issue it as some sort of contractual obligation (even though Peter Wolf would continue to release solo records for the label in years to come) or perhaps as a forgone catalog piece. Geils Band "deep" cuts like "Flamethrower" and the terrific "Just Can't Wait." Incomprehensibly, other essentials like "Sanctuary," "Teresa," "Just Can't Stop Me," "Nightime," and even the hilarious "Piss on the Wall" (not so essential) are nowhere to be found. Geils Band sheet music for such popular songs as Land of a Thousand Dances. Anyone else should stick to the great career-spanning collection Houseparty: Anthology on Rhino.Featuring a hodgepodge of material taken from the band's three biggest career selling records (all on EMI), Flashback is an all too brief ten-track affair which includes a handful of classics like "Love Stinks," "Centerfold," "Freeze Frame," and a couple of other essential J. So if it is the pop side of Geils that appeals to you maybe this is the best J. Description: This is a Flashback: The Best Of The J.Geils. It rounds up all their hits ("Centerfold," "Freeze Frame," "One Last Kiss," "I Do" and "Come Back,") as well as a middling hit that should have been huge ("Just Can't Wait"), throws in a lot of AOR friendly tracks like "Just Can't Stop Me," "Love Stinks," "Sanctuary" and "Wild Man," adds some lesser known album tracks like "Till the Walls Come Tumbling Down," "Take It Back" and "Takin' It Down" and comes up with a pretty strong document of the group's most popular era.

Geils Album Ever" to be compiled from their EMI material? Yeah, probably.
So you have to readjust your expectations a bit when you look at the record. See, it only covers the four records the group released for EMI between 19 (1978's Sanctuary, 1980's Love Stinks, 1981's Freeze Frame and 1982's live album Showtime!) and has nothing from any of the excellent records they recorded for Atlantic starting in 1970. Geils Band Album Ever is misleading at best, mostly just dead wrong.
