" …a fresh new wave in urban jazz music."

Sherri C.
I'm listening to MoodSwings for the 3rd time. To say that I'm impressed is inadequate.

Loren McDonald / Gods Of Music
My hat is off to Brian. I’m sure yours will be too after hearing what he has to offer.

Customer Reviews

Samba Sauce
"Mood Swings" is my go to cd when I want to get in a relaxed frame of mind, or when I am in the mood for varied styles of jazz.

I am not sure which mood Brian O'neal was in when he constructed Samba Sauce, but it picks me up everytime I hear it. Samba Sauce has such a funky, jazzy flow. It makes me want to go salsa dancing.

Swings and things reminds me of the jazz I listened to as a child while hanging out with my dad; which I would like to thank Brian O'neal for the memory.

My 14-year-old daughter was listening to Mood Swings when I came in from work one day and it made me realize that Brian O'Neal had managed to do something I had not been able to do - get my daughter to listen to jazz, and like it.

Thank you for such a wonderful collection of songs, Brian O'Neal, and I look forward to the many cd's to come.

Soothing and Relaxing
One thing I like about Mood Swings is that it has a very relaxing quality to it. Brian O'Neal has expressed such emotion on this CD that it is wonderful to explore with each song given them a very nice individual flare. This is what smooth jazz is all about, music that is contemporary and classy. I love listening to Mood Swings when I am doing aroma therapy and entertaining friends. I highly recommend this CD and look forward to his upcoming album. It is clear that Brian O'Neal has the true talent of an accomplished jazz musician and will be around a long time.

Brian O'Neal....great jazz pianist
Awesome is just word to describe Brian O'neal's second album. Others include exciting, mellow, cool, melodic and hot! You can tell who his musicial influences are by listening as his fingers run across the keys. Brian is a star.
