O'Brien's Edge
Straight-on Solo Acoustic Blues. Shane really lets out his imaginative story telling quality here. 1 take with no preconception as what the recording was to be about musically or lyrically, as the little flicker of the mixing board lights flashed on.
Kind of a cocky attitude presented here, like strutting one's own feathers. Attitude contained in a Blues Shuffle
A funky Blues Rock song created as a tribute piece in honor of our Vets past, present and future
An Acoustic Guitar/Vocal Ballad by Shane O'Brien using his 12 String
Solo Country Rockin Blues Number highly influenced by the man: J. Cash
Acoustic Guitar Duo performance of another Shane O'Brien classic song story. Shane-6/12 string Guitars/Vocal, Todd Tragar -Ovation Guitar
Originally broadcasted in 2003 which is also this Funky Rock Blues song's first live performance.
Written by Shane O'Brien, Remember I Love, his ballad performed in it's very slowest time signature with an almost stop type rhythm
Kind of a rock discoed out piece that I wrote in 2005 using a B B King Lucille for the first time, it very quickly became one of the go to songs in a playlist of that period for me.
Danny Timms and I did this track he presented when we were rolling track after track we each had written one summers night. This recording jumped right out from the collection, I'm thinking the syncopation just does that, oh ya,trains hoot sounds 2
May 2009, the introduction to the KJFM interview with Hostess Nancy Westin. Nancy interviews Shane O'Brien and this the top of the INVALID s bumper theme followed by the introduction of Shane.
The Bluesman c2003 is slow and groovy also deliberate in delivery. A 1-4-5 progression done twice before the actual turn around.
Guitar_Keyboard Blues Rock tune.
Funky Up tempo Blues Rock Number. Shane actually had a cast on from a broken wrist injury from his duties as a Union Ironworker during the day job thing... Finger tips to just below the right elbow the cast was. Music is so powerful and cool though
Acoustic Guitarist/Vocalist accompanied by Acoustic Guitarist Hoopa Johnny. Recorded with two room mics only on two tracks only. One Take, as usual... Tells of a blind faith in Love and a misguided intention from one Lover...
Rock Blues Ballad. This is the second song written by Shane O'Brien during his late teen years. Still nurturing it with every ounce of energy today and performed every time as a favored piece, anywhere and anytime for everyone.
