OK...after all these years, I am finally getting to put some video links
up on oreoblue.com. Most of these will be hosted elsewhere (MySpace,
Youtube, etc.) so if the links fail then it will have been due to that
server pulling the file or some other reason. In any case, some of
these are pretty fun. I will try to give brief explanations for
each clip where appropriate and the contributor's information.
Thanks!
Description: 2003 Oreo Blue Experience, A Jimi Hendrix Tribute DVD
filmed in Fayetteville, Arkansas. This is track 7, Voodoo Child. Gary Hutchison
(g, v), Brian Crowne (sax), Stephen Boudreaux (d), Rod Williamson (b)
(more to come)
Description: From our 2003 release, The Oreo Blue Experience--A Tribute
to Jimi Hendrix. Track two from the DVD, Them Changes. A song by Buddy
Miles...Buddy Miles...Buddy Miles. Gary Hutchison (guitar), Brian Crowne (sax),
Stephen Boudreaux (vocal, drums), Rod Williamson (Fender bass). This track was
almost a scratch from the project as the hard drive recorder had a time stamp
click. Famous engineer, Terry Aldafer, an Arkansan now in Nashville, helped
Brian clean the track and get it ready for release. The track is good, but is
thin in places as a result of the cleaning. However, it remains popular at our
shows.
Oreo Blue--Them Changes--From the Hendrix Tribute DVD
Description: This song was featured on our 2003 release, The Oreo Blue
Experience--A Tribute to Jimi Hendrix. It is called "Stratto Strut" and was part
of a rehersal recording done by Jimi Hendrix and Buddy Miles...Buddy
Miles...Buddy Miles. that was recently released to the public. As far as we
know, Oreo Blue was the first band to ever cover this song on a recording.
Oreo Blue -- Stratto Strut -- From the Hendrix Tribute DVD
Description: This is from our 2003 release, The Oreo Blue Experience--A
Tribute To Jimi Hendrix. The only original composition on the tribute DVD. The
song was performed live on stage, but considering a tuning problem, the song was
re-cut in the studio and on the DVD release it was accompanied by a photo
montage. A beautiful song written by Gary Hutchison in tribute to Jimi Hendrix.
This version is the studio camera view. Later, I will post the photo montage
version.

A little about the video below...while
performing at the KBBF in Helena, AR, in 2001, we were featured
in a French Film Documentary about Robert Johnson and the legend
of the Crossroads. This clip was our portion of the film.
Gary tears it up for the film crew and Brian and Gary offer some
nice insights into what they might do with the lost 30th
song...enjoy.
Here is a brief clip from a buddy from Hogville whose moniker is
RedRiverHog. This is from the BBBBQ Festival in 2006. It was
a little hard to tell at first, but the clip is during the solo by guest
keyboardist, TJ Erhardt from the Nace Brothers Band on the song, Changes
by Buddy Miles (Band of Gypsies)
Here's the full clip of the show finale...(hey Gary...buy a tuner!)
