Jerry, 'Oh Lonesome You' was the opening track on side 2 of their debut self-titled LP 'The O'Kanes' Columbia 40459 (1986). There were 2 LPs, the other being 'Tired of the Runnin'' Columbia 44066 (1988). There was 1 CD: 'Imagine That' Columbia CK 45131 (1990). The other CD, 'The O'Kanes: the only years' Lucky Dog 61489 (2000), is a compilation of some tracks from the 2 LPs and one track from 'Imagine That'. Lucky Dog is a subsidiary of Sony/Columbia and why they didn't include all tracks from the 2 LPs beats me. Keiran Kane subsequently released a CD on Atlantic and several on his own Dead Reckoning label, including a beaut live set in Australia with Kevin Welch. Jamie O'Hara recently released his second CD after a long absence from recording. I am not sure what to make of it; it is quite different from his lovely 'Rise Above It' album.

Cheers, Stewie.
