You're Gettin' Even While I'm Gettin' Odd

You're Gettin' Even While I'm Gettin' Odd is the eleventh and final studio album by American rock band the J. Geils Band and the only one recorded without singer Peter Wolf. The band's keyboardist Seth Justman produced the album, did all the song and horn arrangements, wrote all the songs with lyrical help from Paul Justman, and provided the majority of the album's lead vocals, with drummer Stephen Jo Bladd singing lead on three tracks. Compared to the band's earlier works, which leaned towards a more live rock band sound, You're Gettin' Even While I'm Gettin' Odd emphasizes dubbing and production. The album was released on October 5, 1984, by EMI Records. The album contained one single, "Concealed Weapons", which peaked at No. 63 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart. Cash Box said of "Concealed Weapons" that "J. Geils here rocks hard and with a contemporary feeling on a track that makes a statement of sorts against its title."
