 * Add his association with a band with "the most downloaded track on Ireland’s download charts". This is from the website of a major music event where "so many people arrived ... that stewards had to turn hundreds away from the doors"... -- can  dle &bull; wicke  20:16, 7 June 2009 (UTC)
 * Has worked with The Human League, Clannad and The Waterboys... (Clannad are Gammy winners) -- can  dle &bull; wicke  20:24, 7 June 2009 (UTC)
 * Credits also include Something Happens, Tina Arena, Moya Brennan, Zappacosta, Sam Salter... has been doing this since at least 1990... lots of countries (UK, Canada, Australia, Ireland, United States), continents and genres represented by those musicians... I'm not sure he got that far without achieving notability... -- can  dle &bull; wicke  20:39, 7 June 2009 (UTC)
 * Keep Seems pretty notable to me. If you search the Google news archives for "Chris O'Brien" in conjunction with his co-producer "Graham Murphy", you find the Antrim Times calling them "top Irish rock producers", many references in Hot Press concerning their work with Clannad, Westlife and Human League. The NME calls them "leading Irish producers" . Seriously, the references need improvement but it seems he's one of the most renowned record producers in Ireland. --Canley (talk) 04:11, 11 June 2009 (UTC)
 * Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so consensus may be reached.


 * Delete. Wholly unreferenced BLP reads like a typical auto-bio, where it lists all the notable people the subject has worked with but fails to add anything that actually establishes the subject's own notability, much less with reliable sources to support such claims. لenna  vecia  16:05, 15 June 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete, no suggestion of why the subject is actually notable - working with notable people doesn't mean you're notable yourself. Add this to the lack of any sources confirming any of the assertions in this BLP. ~ mazca  t/c 22:00, 18 June 2009 (UTC)
