}}The MOB is an American rock, rhythm and blues show band from Chicago, Illinois, United States. The band formed in January 1966 and went on to earn headline status in every major showroom in Nevada and across the country including Canada, Puerto Rico and Hawaii. The MOB disbanded in 1980, but reunited in 2011 to perform together on stage as they were inducted into the South Dakota Rock And Roll Hall of Fame.[1]

History

Growing up around Chicago in a teen rock band with horns, Gary Beisbier and Jim Holvay continued their musical experience charting the instrumental “Beatle Time” on the WLS Silver Dollar Survey as The Livers.[2] After the Caravan Of Stars tours, The Chicagoans and The Executives, Holvay watched the 1951 movie "The Mob" [3] and visioned a mob of musicians from a gangster town with pinstripe suits, black shirts, white ties and carnations.[4][5] The MOB formed in 1966 with Mike Sistak, Gary Beisbier, Jim Holvay, Dave Heidelberg, Tony Nedza, James Franz and Dwight Kalb. By mid-1966, Big Al and Little Artie (from the group Kane And Able and Little Artie and The Pharaohs) along with Bobby Ruffino (from The Executives) joined The MOB.

Their original manager was Joe DeFrancisco. They were the first group from Chicago to include a full horn section (the Chicago horn rock sound).[6]

The first Mod Night was held on Wednesday, August 2, 1967 featuring The MOB the first hour followed by The Association the second hour.
