He “Must Have Got Lost”

I saw them in 73 with Ladies Invited....Magic Dick was the star to me....I always liked that name.....my wife will find it amusing.....shoulda been my nick.....Yeah right......this band was a bit before her time

Peter Wolf wrote some good stuff

He wrote Patty Loveless hit record Nothing But the Wheel...about as good a sad song as country gets....Wolf lived in Nashville a bit after the Faye marriage

Geils was the only goy in the group...oddly.....I just saw that on wiki ....RIP

They were a funk band to me.....like a white Sly Stone band

But. Centerfold was their breakout much later

I saw them later summer 1974 when they opened in Memphis liberty bowl July fourth for Mick and the lads...I think first time the tongue logo was used in a tour

The Goats Head Soup tour I reckon it featured some Its Only Rock and Roll stuff too which was soon to be released

They tried to come on stage with pachyderms.....

Furry Lewis was first act ....bless his heart

Not appreciated like he shoulda been in that sweltering heat given his due as almost a pre Robert Johnson peer

It was the It’s Only Rock ‘N Roll tour. To my knowledge, the Stones didn’t tour in ‘74. Wish I saw ‘em in ‘75 at the Forum. By the next tour (’78), they were playing the Coliseum.

Seeing Furry Lewis open is way cool.
