Oli Brown "Been So Long"

[roboteko]

hi Oli...i watched your performance with John Mayall in jakarta, indonesia. Anyway nice playin', and nice telecaster tone that night, hope someday i would see u again...

[BadKittyjb]

Oli -- Awesome song dude! Baaaad Kitty

[Xxfuckyoubitchx]

He use to go to my school. how freaking awsome is that. he came back like last year and performed a gig and i got a picture taken with him. i nearlyyy died.:3

[FRANKY1818DEMAISSE]

tres belle prestation j'adhere totalement ,la nouvelle scene blues casse la barraque !

[n1ll3r]

This has "Just Ain't My Cross To Bear" by The Allman Brothers written all over the intro, good job dude! Have any records for sale?

[nuttyisis]

Got recommended to listen to this guy last night at a Black Country Communion gig, so glad I took the advice ^_^

[ARandomSchoolBand]

he performed at our scholl :D

[TheBigBluesFan]

Oh yeah!

Found out about this player while in London last week.

Wow what a talent, will be watching him closely from now on.

[Cabal77]

Saw him last night at Lee's Palace in Toronto, really good stuff. Great attitude & spirit.

[delite4u2234]

Love you! Please come to Little Rock Arkansas, Memphis Tennessee... You do the blues right!

[grandabell]

That Strat sounds fantastic.

[imstjimmy]

This sounds an awful lot like Three O'clock Blues on the BB King and Eric Clapton album Riding With the King. Only the lyrics are different...

[skeletalwreck]

@imstjimmy if you are not familiar with the term 'blues standards' then you may find you are going to hear a lot of extremely similar sounding songs with different lyrics lol It's how you interpret these tunes that makes it count though.

[ChezKiva]

Austin? That's a no brainer. Dude, people who worship stevie ray have a lot of travellin' to do. Sure, he was fast, but here in the Delta, we can barely stand to listen to texas-style country & western fake blues. I think this guy could win the Blues championship in Memphis, but not without a great tune. He needs to team up with a writer like Eric Bazalian, Paul Carrack, etc

[300crd]

one of my fav

[Alb1]

The audience doesn't even know where to clap because it's all so good. Lol.

[MrGuitarplayer184]

watched him last night. amazing. spoke to him after the show and he gave me his plectrum. whoooooo

[WoWplayer4000]

Fuck u all he played at my school in my little town of driff haha. Its was brill.

[JuliaZoe]

saw him last year :) going to see him on friday again :D can't wait. will be a great show !

[pawelec66]

Great concert in Warsaw today 13/1/11. English pub atmosphere. The band is fantastic. Oli played solo in between the audience, Really enjoyed it. They even packed their own equipment. Keep it up guys.

[pawelec66]

I`m going to see Oli live in Warsaw, Poland on the 13/1/2011. Cant wait.

[HOWESbabiie15]

your coming to my school tomorra!

[EllyRandom53]

I LOVE YOU OLLIE!!!

[Devaprakash777]

Awesome, heard about him on absolute sound and decided to look him up, sick stuff.

[autinspare]

Time well spent in the woodshed Oli. Taste, timing and technique. As a 50 year old blues guitarist I get a warm feeling seeing the new generation "getting it" and getting it right.

[thorbo3yt]

Come to Austin Boy!

[tgbrown4]

@thorbo3yt would love to. Just sorting a booking agency out for America...then we keep our fingers crossed. Thanks.

[sheshosha]

Nice, yet weird conbination.... Emo looking hair, but playing blues... Me like

[chris1986123]

Wow! I read the article about you in Guitar Buyer and thought I'd check you out... great stuff!!!

[qwerly45]

Mmm BB king influenced tone. Much soul.

[thetwist777]

i missed him, when he came to hewitt :(

[Chavettes101]

I saw him live, he came to our school, I gave him a hug :P and I got loads of autographs and badges ;)

[SunnyBobJim]

He is from my school.

[Kawaiidangoolivia]

so what school are you from, 'cause he's from mine.

[bigleemac]

Simply awesome! A little bit of blues deluxe at the beginning there!

[HRJblue]

I was thinking exactly the same :)

[ThePavlopavlo]

went to my school =D =P

[xxboltbabzxx]

he is soooooooooo hot! oli brown i love you!!!!

[XLuceEmz]

He came to my school today :D:D

[drpickup]

Nice one - great sound

[Echioderm]

Very reminiscent of Stvie Ray Vaughan!

Very good!

[Blues71]

On top of Oli's incredible talent, I've had the pleasure of meeting him and he is a fine young man too!.......Roy

[texbls]

[HeavyMetalist24]

This guy is so fucking hot i'm going to buy his album for the picture of himself on it XD

[mikeyb79]

I saw Oli Brown in milkwood jam in Swansea last night.. What a talent!!! I urge anyone to go and see him if he's in your area. What a fantastic performance all round. Best tenner I've spent all year

[007samd]

Here here I was there as well, second time I have seen him. Looking forward to seeing him again too.

[conkerhead500]

i know hes not that famous yet, but ive got a signed cd and his plectrum :) thatll be worth a few bob in a couple of years ;)

[adamepi8316]

such bill talent at so young

[bradnightmare]

from where i live ohh yehhh

[spincat1]

Geeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee­z

What can you say. This young man is great.

Reminds me of a young Stevie Ray and a young Alvin Lee

[xale1980]

very nice! happy to see good young guitar players.

[Freddyfartbox]

I love that restraint that great blues guitarists play with, it's so much more intense than just playing hard from the start.

[tattooedsexgod]

This boy is AWESOME - saw him last night with Walter Trout at Newcastle. If you get the chance to see him, don't pass it up!

[tgbrown4]

Thank you.

Hope you can get to another gig soon.

[oxnoprog]

Correct! I saw him with Walter Trout at Holmfirth last week. Bought his CD after gig - well worth a listen.

[poachinroaches]

@tattooedsexgod How good is that, with Walter Trout, awesome!

[EdMardell]

Sounds kinda like... "Three O' Clock Blues" to me. On the intro.

[BaaaaaDLucKBettY]

gorgeous

[ugforthewin]

Good stuff

[MALTvideoz]

He's playing one of Scott Platts custom guitars in this video.

[fenderlicker]

I think Steve ray Vaughn would be so proud of such a guitarist.

You can see so much Stevie ray in this guys playing it's breathtaking to see>

He's gonna go so far.

[TheHellbred]

@fenderlicker yeah, it reminds me of aint gonna give up on love now that you mention it.

[jamie241290]

i saw this guy at the boom boom club in sutton

[walshy54]

[b20mgb]

[Batti2323]

This guy is only 17! I first heard him on the Raven 'n the Blues podcast. Nice to see someone so young play the blues with such heart. Go Oli!
