- From my archives friends: please enjoy this spectacular upgraded full length version from the Anaheim,CA NAMM show 1/16/97.Shawn improvises on his fretless and fretted Vigier guitars, and Jonas Hellborg on fretless & fretted Vigier bass guitars,just breathtaking!
Saw Shawn at Audubon Park when he was 13 or 14. He was two years younger than me. It was with Savage and Tate Yaun was his Rhythm guitarist. I knew Tate a little because I went to School with him. He was very very good also. The guitar was almost bigger than Shawn. What a beautiful Sunday Afternoon in Memphis. The park was the best party place in America. Thousands of people there that day and I had a front row seat. Shawn was already better than 90% of the big names. One of my best memories as a teenager. The band sounded like a seasoned band but they were all kids. Jeff Beck said he may have seen the best guitarist in the World after he saw Shawn. What a Memphis Legend. The man was just as good of a Classical Pianist. True genius.
Tony MacAlphine the same... pianist and guitarist Alien...🙏😇
@@lucianmunteanu8751Trevor Rabin s another who have that skill set, and a freaking good voice. His Live in LA proves that he could pull Yes tunes without Jon Anderson, and that s an impressive feat, bigtime. Still, Shawn and Tony are some monsters.
shawn, tate and i were all very close friends when they had savage. they were both unbelievably great guitarists ,especially for their age. we recorded a song together one night at ardent sound. tates friend was learning to engineer and was given free time from 11pm til 1am. we had the greatest time. i miss those guys. there’s a link to a song of mine that shawn, david yandell, billy cooper and i recorded at kingsbury high school recording class incorrectly titled typhoid.. we were actually called red sharks. shawn is playing drums and lead guitar. we were 16, shawn 15. it was the first song i ever wrote and isn’t great but shawns solo is mind melting. thank you so much for sharing this. shawn was genius, and sweet,smart,funny and kind.
@@davidcatching Wow! You were blessed my Memphis Brother. Absolutely miss those days myself. For some reason you're name rings a Bell. Back when Memphis was a Rock and Roll Blast. Man I really want to thank you for sharing those memories. Didn't Savage record To Cool For School at Treadwell Jr. High School at Summer and Graham? It has been so long ago. I believe I met you because your name is familiar.
i believe they did. great song too cool for school! we may have met. i played in several memphis bands in late 70s through mid 80s, red sharks, angerhead, cockrock,and modifiers, who i moved to LA with in the mid 80s
Went to a clinic of his at a local music store in Memphis about a year before he died, and even though he sat down the entire time, this man SOARED through the musical landscapes he made
great
saw them a few months later. I wouldn't have believed it if I hadn't seen it with my own two eyes.
funny part, Jonas played a solo, WITH HIS FEET.
Went right up to Shawn after the show and got him to autograph my p.o.t. liner notes. only one. ever got, only one that matters. artists like Shawn only come around every few thousand years.
Beautiful stuff. We've lost Shawn Lane and Allan Holdsworth, but thank heaven Guthrie Govan is still with us.
...and buckethead
Guthrie is never the same as Allan and Lane
@@terencelutre6195 yep.. he is great, but not on the same league as Allan or Shawn
And Brett Garsed!
@@coaldoubt2879
That's right my man.
BUCKETHEAD IS LEGENDARY.
He really nails the Indian classical sound on the fretless.
This duo has produced such amazing music, it feels like something special.
indian classical? whats that?
@@ben156 that guitar sounds like Sitar which is Indian classical musical instrument
If I ever made a Top 10 list of BEST guitarist Shawn Lane would be #ONE on it.
100 percent, he could easily be anyone’s top 3 of all time. I’d argue he was the best of all time.
shawn and jonas were simply the perfect duo
two insanely experimental and individual styles combined in one improv
combined with guys like sipe and shrieve it was just incredible
sometimes I cant tell which one I like singling out more, the drum licks are super snappy and right there, Jonas leads on bass, and lanes fillin in the potholes
Brent Fed Yeah, same
Is this Jonas hellborg?
I could watch,listen to him all day in the heavens. He's still playing somewhere just not for our ears!
Where is he getting his equipment? Do they have guitar shops in heaven?
Not for your ears silly chikkypop.
Starting at 23:15 is absolutely incredible, one of a kind playing, never to be replicated.
I’ve never heard a guitarist channel Joe Zawinul vibes like Shawn. Superb playing.
Mindless noodling of noise 😂
Holy mowly 😯..
how great to see Shawn playing this marvelous Vigier fretless...may his spirit and music live on forever 💪 🎸 👍...RIP dear Shawn Lane
This footage is absolute gold! Rare to see the right hand picking in such close up detail.
Thank you so much for posting.
At the. 21 minute Mark is the greatest extended guitar solo I have ever seen during my 60 years on this planet. I thought John McLaughlin was the fastest technical guitarists I had ever seen , as well as the most explosive but I must say that Shawn Lane might have him beat. And for me to say that that's really something because I consider McLaughlin the greatest guitarist on the planet but I can't believe what I just saw. No wonder Shawn Lane is bucketheads favorite guitarist. And I must say that Shawn Lane blows Buckethead away so Buckethead has a great opinion of Shawn Lane for a reason. Because he's perhaps the most explosive creative genius that ever picked up a guitar
Man! I thought I couldn’t be any more amazed at Shawn Lane. Fretless guitar... very cool.
Thank you for a great vid.
Its a fretless guitar for God's sake and his intonation is perfect! He was a ĢOD amongst men.
Thanks !! Shawn for ever !!!
Happy birthday Shawn. You are my fav muso of all time, the best
The most terrifying power trio in the world!
...and a nice Teen town jammin moment...Jaco is surely amused up there in musicians heaven😉💪👍
What an extraordinary musician
18:01 his eyes..proud to play with him
So beautiful and so depressing. Best I've ever seen.
This man was able to warp time with a Guitar!
shawn & jonas were beyond professionals!
Aw Man. You cant get more emotional than Shawn improv on that fretless axe. Yet there s ppl calling him souless, due to having more speed than even Paul Gilbert, and chops i think he got from the aliens themselves. Hell, this is even more ethereal than stuff Steve Morse do. Oh gawd! This is majestic.
Saw them several times in Berlin/Germany back in those days... I miss Shawn, he was pure Love.
All of these guys are beasts!!!!
One of the best musicians ever.
genius with a big heart
Shawn Lane..Magician!!!!!☘
Thanks for the upload. I've gotta scroll through the comments to see if I've commented before. ShawnLaneatosis
This is beyond words to express.
And Johnny Highland at the end. What a treat!
Channeling John Mclaughlin.
Amazing.
Luv and Peace.
I know it's his own thing but damn the similarities are noticeable
Luv and Peace..
What songs of John do you think are most influenced off?
Absolute classic!
Damn shawn Lane..he is so fast!!!😮😮😮
I miss my Musical Partner...
DAMN.........THAT WAS
FEROCIOUS.
Music of the gods.
A late great master of articulate, fun guitar material. I miss the fat guy, and I share his love of the timeless nature of hindi/ middle eastern modality! Excellent!
I miss the fat guy too😂🎸🥲
@@JonathanMusic Yeah...He was quite successful at minimizing the distance between brain, hands, and spirit...and really humble about it! There's a lesson in his life- music flows, and you just have to let it flow, and do some work to help it along 🎶!
@@chasmenear7130 I was not expecting a response so thank you and especially for a timely response at that. I can definitely appreciate what you are saying. Flow is good…. A conduit of energy….
Hey this is a reach but I would like to invite you to my channel and listen to some of my compositions? (Subscribe to be apart of the growing music community)
But if we only meet on this one topic of Shawn Lane then it is good to speak to you nonetheless…. I really do miss the fat guy…. I had a dream about him once and I do not dream about guitar heroes (so to speak). He was special.
I appreciate the dialogue Chas! 🎸
@@JonathanMusic Absolutely! I happen to have the day off from the toil end of life, and sure. I am a guitar guy/multi string guy/restoration luthier, and I will likely be putting a stream of my own on here before years end. Whatever you do otherwise- always practice, and create, and do so from the heart!
@@chasmenear7130 hi Chas are you on Instagram?
Sipe is a monster!
He's not that ugly..
Excellent........
Thank you!
Awesome ! many thanks
25:55 : nice quote from another musical alien, Jaco Pastorius ;-)
Awesome 👑
13:40 Teen town by weather report?
Thank You!
Best close up of his picking technique around 21.31 on fretted guitar.
Holy shit. Fuck. Amazing.
Good 🙏🙏🙏
Free microtonal eastern improvised jazz fusion..................................Dafuq, lol.
19:00 He rips it and 20:39
always thought there's quite a lot of motion in his picking hand compared to other GOATs
Sorry guthrie, you aren't the only god with the fretless guitar :D
fede pesso I'm sure Guthrie knows he isn't. He won't need you to tell him or apologise for it.
I'm Sorry if my commenti was misunderstood... I didn't want to criticize anyone: i'm a great fan of both and i consider them great guitarists.
Guthrie is a very humble person (and a big Lane's fan) and he would be the first to recognize lane's talent (and i think that the opposite would happen if Shawn was alive).
My comment wanted to be ironic, maybe a bit pretentious, but i didn't want to criticize or classify anyone :D cheers!
fede pesso I picked you up wrong so my apologies.
+fredo gumbo no problem!
I had the opportunity to mention to Guthrie in person that he seemed to be the only person to be able to make a fretless guitar sound good, and (since we were referring to the present tense) he deferred to Ron Thal. Seems like Shawn paved the way :-)
Did Shawn lane meet Johnny hilland? He is in the end of the video..
..nearly 200 subs
Shawn was on a different league
If you close your eyes you can be there to.
why his lives recordings lack sound quality? fck
2124 goodfuckin 🌙 what a monster!
Maybe it's a borrowed one since nit's at NAMM.
Dear Lord
I’d like to wrap a nice joint and enjoy this while getting high 😌
Brennon Ali while Sun rise on beach
Brennon Ali. I'm sitting on that train right now 😋✌
Do it, nothing stopping you 👍
Shawn did, why shouldn’t you ?
Angelic, at least
Are those EMGs on that Vigier?
Lace Transducers... I think 😄
struggling with the fretless...a little
Shawn Lane did not "struggle" with ANYTHING! Perhaps you're referring to the quarter tones he inserts throughout the piece?
@Andrew Mcinnis: Flat as hell, actually.
I wish Shawn would have been on cannabis oil, he wouldn't have died. rip lane. just found out about you and bucket. love both of you guys
Shawn smoked his fair share and it didn't help. Too late to speculate.
I don't think it would have mattered. Fact is we are all on borrowed time. Some of us will live to be 100, some of us will die tomorrow. Some of us will depart this life in an instant, and some of us will die after a long sickness and suffering. Shawn is gone but don't feel bad about it. Enjoy the treasures he left behind
To me Shawn lives on! Thank you Shawn for your great gifts to us all...
Buckethead and les claypool are both real good, but they don't compose like these guys here. BH and LC don't have such well thought out and we'll composed arrangements, they both are extremely good at "messing around" with their instruments, making peculiar and interesting things, but they lack the traditional sense of composing and making things flow smoothly and fluid. Buckethead especially does a lot of nonsense, while some sounds cool, it's most unstructured and fragmented.
I absolutely agree and I'm a huge fan of Bucket and Les. They are great together and know how to put on a fun show. But their sound is definitely more about stylish edginess done "for effect" that they're almost one trick ponies. The overall musicianship of Lane and Hellborg is just lightyears beyond that in terms of composition and technique and versatility, there's really no comparison.
before great guitar playing turned into sterile, academic, licks oriented sameness
i know right it seems like everyone plays dorian fusion now a days and them angular licks lanes was different
Before? Come off it man. Always.
Lane was an exception to the rule. Everything changes but the avant garde. Lane was just one of those once in a generation cats.
This was probably the first thing Ive ever seen by Lane that I was disappointed by. Fretless is clearly not his instrument. Far too often to have been intended he was off pitch in his player. Especially the quicker parts. Granted, a fretless is insanely difficult to play dead on the pitch, but then dont play it. Lol. Still love Lane. Way better than Ill ever be.
You didn't get it at all. He's playing microtonal music, that's why he's using fretless. It's very common in eastern music. They use more than 12 notes.
shawn wearing a communist hat.
Why he not burn calories when he burn fret-board - bad joke for the GOAT - RIP
YOU SHAWN LANE FANS WANT TO FOLLOW A LIVING BREATHING LANE CLONE? Two words. MARSHALL HARRISON. LOOK HIM UP HERE ON YT.
Marshall to me sounds different than Shawn. He’s his own man I think though his Swybrid approach is another way to play high velocities.
Mathematical, cold and on the whole boring virtuosity.
sorry you feel that way, peace
Exciting Virtuosity !
thanks a lot for the upload ...beautiful as ever from Shawn
