Hey, Sup Forums. Do any of you know of Shawn Lane, or listen to his music at all? He's probably my favorite desu. I think Temporal Analogues of Paradise is pretty patrish. Also, Shawn Lane general thread

Fucking this. I'm so dissappointed that Lane's still so unknown to most people. He was a crazy motherfucker. He played piano like a madman too.
Benjamin Bennett
he's the shit
Justin Smith
almost hilariously good. you ever had to hold back laughter from how well somebody can play their instrument?
Robert Ward
I was quite disappointed by his studio albums. Even though he could play almost anything he heard in his head, most of his songs are forgettable at best. That being said, these two are something else:

Dude, sometimes I'll just bust out laughing when he plays his "sheets of sound". Hilariously good is an apt description.
Jackson Perez
Man, I bust out laughing when he plays ridiculously fast pretty often. It's silly how fast and accurately he was able to play.
Thomas Gomez
God-tier guitarist, however I personally can't listen to his music. Maybe it's just 2deep4me
Dylan Cox
His two studio albums weren't as good in my opinion. His work with Jonas Hellborg was far superior. BUT Powers of Ten showcases his ability to compose scores n stuff. He was really into film scores and such.

As a fan of Allan Holdsworth and John McLaughlin (for the most part), I wasn't that impressed by Shawn Lane and I think the reason is the same even in your case:

I'm not aware of his collaborations. Are those albums hard to find? I think that would be why.
>BUT Powers of Ten showcases his ability to compose scores n stuff. He was really into film scores and such.
I'm aware that he was a proficient piano player too and I'm still not that impressed.
Cameron James
As far as John McLaughlin goes, first four Machavishnu Orchestra albums are amazing, but I can't for the life of me appreciate Shakti. I understand that his thing is playing fast, but it gets to a point when it's pointlessly fast.
Ian Wright
Listen to Temporal Analogues of Paradise. Prolly his best work. Totally improvised.
Caleb Baker
Allan Holdsworth was a huge influence on Shawn. In an interview, he mentions seeing Holdsworth live at 14, and it changing his life.
Austin Wright
I know.

how do fat guys get their fingers to fit on the fretboard?
John Reed
i like one song of his and only kinda
i think it's 'get you back'
the rest sucks
Jordan Morales
Have you listened to "the rest"? Get You Back's a nice song, but honestly, I think his later work was better.

>shredders
no thanks
Asher Williams
but dude he incorporates jazz bullshit into his mindless scale runs...
Easton Cooper
>implying most jazz is not mindless scale runs
Gavin Miller
actually those are mindless mode runs buddy
Christopher Campbell
who am I a nerd
Mason Allen
Technical and musical master, but I've never been touched emotionally by anything I've heard from him. Just not my kind of guitarist.
