J Geils at the Fox doing Full House is one of my all time favorite concerts man could those guys kill it!
That album is still a blast to put on and rock from one end to the other! Magic Dick is still da man! Thanks Senator had not heard this!! Could not even imagine what James Brown and Magic Dick could have come up with together?

I mean it sucked that Drago had to drop Carl Weathers…but the song nearly became an anthem.
Damn, where did go wrong in life where I didn’t become successful enough to employ a “cape man”?
