L T, Big John and Shane get together for an informal Music Session in the Jungle Studio, San Pedro, CA. in July 2010. The last time we performed together was in 1999_2000. All before Shane went on a recording binge that eventually created 24 albums… This was a nice reunion for all…
Songs from 26 CDs will take a little time to collect for the purpose of being a part in this particular blog post, but it’ll happen
The 1st song we are sharing is a track from one of our CDs titled “The October 2008 Jungle Studio Session” Titled: “My Jungle Girl” AKA “My Girl” Featuring: Shane O’Brien: Guitar/Vocal Ricky Sedona: Bass Guitar Steve “Taco” Hernandez: Drums Teo Manzella: Vocals Jesse Accetta: Guitar “Hoopa Johnny” C Ricker: Guitar

A solo Shane O’Brien performance with an added track where by Shane played with 2 drum stick on a Pacific Bell yellow pages phone book for a percussion sound.
