All 23 previously recorded CDs had been, and still are, only available by attending any of the <em>Shane O\u2019Brien<\/em> live performances. A total of 10,000 have been distributed in that manner. To me <em>The Genuine One<\/em> has now become a critical reason to reflect. I graciously recall with excitement, 5 musicians who had taken the time to perform and assist me (<strong><em>Shane O&#8217;Brien and O\u2019Brien\u2019s Edge<\/em><\/strong>) as major catalysts as I further developed my writing craft. Each individual, I\u2019ll always refer to them as my friends, valued talented musicians and ultimately, my \u201c<strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">All Stars<\/span><\/strong>\u201d.<br \/>\nThe following photos are of the five particular individuals who have stood solid in their own musical lives and by finding a common ground in our associations, together we have sung songs about everyday lives with enthusiasm and confidence, encouraged by each of our collaborations in our music. I recognize today that in more than some ways, my music has become unique reflection of each man. A hint of percussive style picking at times reminds me of <em>Tony Sena<\/em>. Counting silently throughout each measure for the complete song, so I always know where one is reminds on conversations with <em>Ralph Martinez<\/em>. Singing in a voice range that more suits my abilities and actually has much more sincerity in tone, I remember subtlety that lesson from <em>Jimmy Solo<\/em>. Experimenting with scale tonal modes today, thanks to <em>Nicky Shoes<\/em> for shoving scales down my throat every time we reviewed songs I had written. Then there\u2019s <em>Doc Owens<\/em>! He witnessed my wilder youthful periods. Doc made sure that I recognized the more private songs. In particular one\u2019s I wrote that contained real personal lyrics set to driving rhythms that were never meant for public ears and were great fun to play for bass players.<br \/>\nMy five \u201cAll Stars\u201d were musicians who were generous and their contributions enriched me as a musician\/artist, writer\/producer and ultimately a performer of such original music. Most importantly I am reminded that sharing the gift of music with others is the real reward in our lives. It can be shared with a youngster who thrives to develop like I did (and still do today). It can also be sharing with the music lover who can\u2019t play a lick, but somehow understands something within themselves a little bit better after hearing a tone. The effects a rhythm or a theme of some lyric or even the value of one line I sung that struck a nerve. I may be totally unaware of a particular listeners personal take of words put together that they wished they had said but couldn\u2019t. Most likely, such dispositions, I would never even know about.<br \/>\nTeachings such as these, helped mold me into <em>The Genuine One<\/em>, a title they suggested for me. I didn\u2019t get it then. As a matter of fact I cringed at its sound as the five repeatedly use the expression. Now I cherish the term. It reminds me not hoard such things I consider to be so important, such as my music, and do pass it on by taking opportunities to share and give to those that I do unquestionably. Therefore I offer a little view in our musical language we shared as these photos were taken. These living alive photos with such spirit, such as the kind each musician expressed with every performance.<br \/>\nAll five had individual unique qualities that made them \u201cMuseum Pieces\u201d in the world of music. RIP gentlemen. I believe that the good lord took you for his band because you all had become talented enough to be there.<\/p>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"color: #ffff00;\">(B.)

Notice the shift of delivery and intensity as a few rough times are recanted. Also, you may observe the feel of the Guitar mood settle down in sync with the meaning of that message i.e.: a description of times of violence slips into moments of fond reflection. Listen closely enough, you will hear words that reflect forgiveness, gratefulness, wanting and wondering. A recalling of a unique journey, summed up in a review of sorts, assembled lyrically and musically for a purpose of just doing it! Almost, and as if intentionally, there seems to be one left behind to hold down the fort. Therefore actually in some way becoming a reflection of all his \u201cAll Star\u201d five.
