 Blow your face out! J. Geils Band February 14, 2007
Charles H. Allen IV
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
An apt salute to the six studio albums of boogie rock that the J. Geils Band had recorded between 1970-1975, this 1976 live extravaganza showcases the band at their best--performing live! It is also a capable followup to 1972's Full House, which remains one of the best live recordings of any American band in the 20th century! br / Released at a time when live albums were big sellers (Frampton Come Alive, Kiss Alive, i.e.), this underated gem gives the band a chance to deliver their best songs with irreverent energy and unstoppable rythym that'll have you dancing within the first two minutes of the opening "Southside Shuffle" till the last chords of "Give it to Me" br / Some may find Peter Wolf's banter a bit lengthy and/or annoying in between many songs on Blow Your Face Out! Others may find Wolf's pre-rap, D.J.'ish chatter a novelty....Either way it's in-your-face fun!
 Classic Geils January 12, 2007
James (SF, CA)
The quintiscential Geils band live album. If you grew up in the seventies, this was the party album. Good sound and great energy.
The J Geils Band at their best. January 12, 2007
Alex S (Los Angeles CA United States)
This album has great energy and captures the 'Live' J Geils Band experience very nicely. There is no comparison to actually seing this band live, but this (along with their "Full House" album) is as close as your ever going to get. I highly recommend it!
J Geils Ultimate Live Record December 2, 2006

In the history of the J Geils Band, "Blow Your Face Out" is their definitive live work. This record came as their Atlantic years were ending. No one knew but soon the EMI America years would start and the fame of the band would be achieved but, at the time of "Blow Your Face Out", Geils was still struggling to become the great success they later attained. So, we can look at "Blow Your Face Out" as their summing up of their struggling years and showing the road warrior mentality and experience that all those years can provide on a record. br / br /It's full of their old material and captures their well known knack as a live band. As someone who saw the band in that era, this live record is as close as it gets to having been at a show in the 70's. br / br /"Monkey Island" was their final studio record for Atlantic but, in reality, "Blow Your Face Out" was their real swan song to their past at that point and shows a glimpse of the greatness that was to soon come at EMI America. br / br /Buy the record. You'll love it.

Being a huge fan of J. Geils' "Full House," I was encouraged by some reviews here to believe that "Blow Your Face Out" was a similar live effort. But the only similarity is that they were both recorded live. "Blow Your Face Out" is funky and laid back. Not bad, if that's what you want. But anyone expecting something along the lines of Full House will be tremendously disappointed. In fact, "Lookin' For Love," which will knock your socks off on "Full House," is done as a slow, elavator Muzac tune in "Blow Your Face Out." Why did they even bother? br / br /The energy level, which is consistently frenzied on Full House, rarely gets above "low" on "Blow Your Face Out." After listening to it twice, I realized there is no song on it that I want to hear again. Not that aren't a couple good songs on it. There just are no high energy songs other than House Party. I wasted my money.
