In 1994 he formed his own outfit The Boneshakers finally projecting his vision of funk, blues, R&B, rock and soul into the universe. Releasing two CD’s, “Book of Spells” and “Shake the Planet” for Virgin Records. Two more followed, “Pouring Gasoline” and “Put Some Booty on It Live, Vol. 1” from his own Bad Monkey Recordings.

Randy has created 11 tracks, showcasing his talents.

Randy also keeps his trademark funk groove happening on electric guitar with songs like, Trixie, Get Down Off the Table! with Euge Groove on tenor sax. He trades licks with Wayman Tisdale on No More Rainy Days, and gets down and dirty on Ooo What She Does To Me with Mindy Abair on alto sax and shows his blues chops on the seductive title track with Wendy Moten’s beautiful voice joining the sweet guitar melody. Speaking of blues, check out his singing and playing on the interlude “Dobro Jones”. Jacobs ends his CD with the atmospheric “Emotional Moment ” sharing his love of indian and spiritual music.
“The greatest thing in my life, has been to work with and learn from so many different
people. I’ve tried to share those lessons with this CD”.
The title says it all “From Me To You”.
