Magic Dick was an integral part of their sound with his harmonica work central to their output of Rhythm & Blues, Rock, Pop and Soul.Īfter the J Geils band split in 1985 he took a break from playing before coming back with some session playing and then forming the band Bluestime with J Geils. He was a founder member of the J Geils Band, who had great commercial success for over 15 years. He started playing trumpet at age 9, and this instrument along with his love of jazz and rock and roll shaped his approach on harmonica.

Back in high school I used to play the live Full House LP for hours at a time, marvelling at Dick’s command of the instrument, especially when he blew his top on tunes like the harp-driven tour de force Whammer Jammer. The first blues harpist I really got into was Magic Dick of the J. But his long career has produced so many more highlights than just that.
