Looking Ahead by Shane O’Brien

Looking Ahead by Shane O’Brien

Looking Ahead for good things to come
Looking Ahead for good things to come

Is one of the earliest of the songs written and recorded during the days when the recording studio was actually a 33 foot sloop rig sailboat. The floating studio was then docked in the Los Angeles Harbor town of San Pedro, California. It quickly became known as the rocking-est boat in the harbor. Of the seven albums created in that era of Shane O’Brien and O’Briens Edge [known at that time as The Shame, Shame, Shame Blues Band] is the three CD collection titled “Solid Gold Treasure Chest  parts A, B and C“. Looking Ahead by Shane O’Brien is a track listed in Part A.

I’ll be adding to this collection of JPEGS and VIDEO clips till it looks pretty good and functions as it should, so it’s early yet but here what I’ll be sharing about the USS Iowa docked not a football field away from my front door. Cool or what… Regards all Shane

USS Iowa Decommissioned is now serving her country again, this time as a Naval Museum in her new home. Port O Call, The Los Angeles Harbor in San Pedro California. I especially find this exciting since She is docked right outside my front door. I live in “Pedro” on the street adjacent to the Harbor and have always enjoyed watching the traffic travel in and out from ports around the world. Gazing at the magnificent display that came with the flotilla escorting the USS Iowa was great to add into the old memory banks for years to come. I applied as a Volunteer in the Iron Maintenance today just because I can do these skills. Union Ironworkers you know???
Anyway all. A little break from the Music Biz and here are some photos and Video clips I gathered up for sharing with anyone who wants to check it out…
Regards
Shane
