This is the official Myspace Site of the Mojo Gypsies! Based in the eastern Pennsylvania/central New Jersey area, we specialize in Chicago- and West-Coast-style Blues and R&B. At a Gypsies gig, you're likely to hear songs by such classic blues artists as T-Bone Walker, Ray Charles, Eddie "Cleanhead" Vinson, Louis Jordan, Little Walter, Freddie King and Albert Collins, as well as music from contemporary blues performers including Little Charlie and the Nightcats, Kid Ramos, Rod Piazza, the Fabulous Thunderbirds, Paul DeLay, and James Harman.
Never ones to shirk from a challenge, the Gypsies pride themselves in rising to any musical occasion, from small, intimate gatherings to large, outdoor festivals. Available as an "unplugged" duo or trio, or as a four- or five-piece combo, the Mojo Gypsies are sure to please even the most discriminating of blues and r&b afficionados. Check us out at http://www.mojogypsies.com!
Incidentally, this page was originally developed for Dave "The Professor" Orban's birthday, by his daughter Tess, who has special connections with the band, because she's cool like that...! Thanks, Tess!
Professor Dave Orban can also be seen filling the guitar slot with James Day and the Fish Fry (http://www.jameswday.com), as well as with The Rippers (http://www.orbanrealty.com/rippers).
Hello “friends”, I have had jazz musicians emailing me their suggestion on how I should go about with other musicians “Share File” songs instead of using the agreement that was written out on Boodeaux’s blog. You’ll now see there is no longer any binding agreement, just the love of your trust with Boodeaux is all that is needed. If you agree, Boodeaux will even buy one of your song tracks from your MySpace. com profile page with your permission only after you have sent an IM (Instant Message saying so). Otherwise it’s all up to you however you wish to share your song track file. And you may cancel out anytime as you wish. Here you’ll see a shortcut to Boodeaux’s blog:
I apologize for not having my profile page ready before public viewing. It's starting to come together now. If you know of anyone who might be interested in sharing their Sax sound on my music player for exposure, entertainment, and most of all for those who are still unknown at this time that would like to be known to the world wide web of jazz music.
Boodeaux
PS. Don't forget to check out Boodeaux's images from his photo album.
