    Peter Wolf is an American rhythm and blues, soul and rock and roll musician, best known as the lead vocalist for the J. Geils Band from 1967 to 1983 and for a successful solo career with writing partner Will Jennings. Wolf was born in the Bronx, New York. He planned a career as an artist, but he got a job in the late 1960s as a disc jockey on Boston FM radio station WBCN and began exploring his interest in blues and rhythm and blues music, giving himself the nickname “the Wolfa Goofa”, sometimes expanded to “the Wolfa Goofa with the Green Teeth” . For a brief period in Boston in the late ’60s, Wolf roomed with director David Lynch, who eventually kicked him out for not paying rent. Later, as a solo artist, he called himself “Woofa Goofa Mama Toofa”. Wolf, Doug Slade, Joe Clark, Paul Shapiro, and Stephen Jo Bladd formed a group, the Hallucinations, which performed with the Velvet Underground, Howlin’ Wolf, Muddy Waters, Van Morrison, John Lee Hooker, and Sun Ra. He then saw the J. Geils Blues Band in concert and quickly joined in 1967. He was the vocalist and frontman and often acted as a sort of manager for the group. Wolf was known for his charismatic stage antics of fast-talking quips and “pole-vaulting” with the microphone stand. He and keyboard player Seth Justman were responsible for most of the songwriting. Creative differences followed their album Freeze Frame, causing Wolf to part ways with the J. Geils Band in 1983.
