J. Geils created a number of songs that became enduring classics. Anybody who has seen the Wedding Singer can point out one in particular - Love Stinks! That scene in the movie is hilarious, and shows just how much the song resonates with many people.

There are other songs on here that are great for screaming out at the top of your lungs. Freeze Frame gets you not only singing, but dancing your heart out. "Shoop! Shoop! Doobedobedoop!" :)

The songs keep rolling. Flamethrower is a great one, I love the rhythms here. Just Can't Wait is more straightforward rock-n-roll, with a simple but catchy meaning.

I Do is another perfect song to sing along with. I love the rhythms and harmonies in it.

When it comes to visuals, few guys growing up in the 80s could forget the "Centerfold" video which was quite racy for its day. Being female, the song was a little depressing, since few females in high school could match up to those models ...

In general, you get a bunch of great songs to sing and dance along to, and a boppy memory of the fun of the 80s.
