#The j. geils band original album series full

The J.Geils Band blasted out of Boston in the early 70's, and this 5 cd pack contains their 1st 5 LP's! The 1st 4 are worth 5 Stars while their 5th, 'Ladies Invited', checks in at 4 stars. If you buy this set, look for their next set in the Rhino series (not a Japanese import, so much cheaper) containing their next 3 studio albums, next live album, & the unneeded greatest hits album. As is standard w/these Rhino releases, each disc slips inside of a cardboard mini replica of the original vinyl album (front/back cover only any gatefolds are absent), which in turn all slip inside of a slightly larger ВЅвЂќ thick box, nice for taking up limited shelf space the back of this box has a picture of each album & lists all songs on each & as usual, absolutely no frills, such as bonus tracks or written info (other than the original tiny print on the replica covers). There is no re-mastering info listed anywhere, but all the songs sound very clean & crisp. I subtract 1 star for the volume playback levels: the 4 studio albums play back at even levels (great for making a personal playlist), but unfortunately the live album will blow your ears out compared to the rest.

Geils BandвЂ™s first 4 studio albums (1970-73) plus their вЂ™72 live album Full House is, for me, well worth the higher than normal price for other sets in RhinoвЂ™s 5 album вЂњOriginal Album SeriesвЂќ because, IMHO, their first 3 studio albums were there best: more grounded in their rawer blues/ R&B sound.
