It Ain't What You Do (It's How You Do It!)

"This..this is one of those groups who are going to keep it going a long, long time, they've got a great sound, the J. Geils Band!" so it is proclaimed by Bill Graham himself to begins this fantastic show from the Fillmore East in 1971. I found a blurb about this particular show from Wolfgang's Vault: "Going onstage after Mountain and before the Allman Brothers was certainly no easy task, but this set finds the J. Geils Band more than capable of rising to the occasion. According to Graham's autobiography, this group was among his favorites ever presented at the Fillmore East, and this set captures them performing with a ferocity few bands could match." Covering songs from their excellent debut album The J. Geils Band and their even better follow up The Morning After they kick the show off with a raucaus 'New York City Breakdown'and and keep up a pace that can only be described with a a few more f-adjectives, 'frentic' and 'furious' and finally culminating with an absolutely fucking killer version of my favourite song of theirs "It Ain't What you Do (It's How You Do It!). Highly recommended this be played at a near ear-splitting volume.
