J. Geils Band shows their deepening into adult rock.
Heavy, cinematic rock with roots in blues and R&B, but boldly incorporating elements of funk and jazz.
The dramatic, lengthy title track is a highlight, and this ambitious album goes beyond party rock, proving that they are a group with true musicianship.
