  • He Truly was the Greatest and Tastiest Guitar Player I have ever Played drums with.
    It was always a smaller venue and on this date the lights kept tripping the breaker so I had to enhance the video for you to see Shawn's Hands
    Its difficult to see his fingers sometimes because they were scorching fast but I did my best to make it so you could see.
    Shawn plays with so much Taste, Color, as well as melodically and with speed...
    It's scary. I miss him for sure.
    Hope you enjoy this video and share it as well.
    The group is;
    Drums - Chuck Bowers
    Guitar - Shawn Lane
    Keys and Vocals - Wes Bowers
    Sax - Mark Lewis
    Keys Bass- Rooney LaPlant

    One thing I've always wondered is why Shawn didn't have you playing drums on his records, I like your playing a lot more than the guy who played on those couple tracks on Power of Ten where there are actual drums. Your groove and feel is 100 times better, that video at the Bombay Bicycle is amazing for Shawn's performance but also for yours! You two seemed like a perfect musical match

    BTW, brother, you had asked me about my Filipino wife’s immigration status in another post. Sorry to hear about your wife’s situation and you guys not being able to see each other. I wish I had more to offer but my wife has been in the USA for a few decades now so anything I know is old news, unfortunately. However, we hear of others in the community who are going through what you seem to be, regularly. Any path you can see to get the two of you back connected again soon?

      @a.s.2426 8 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      I should add that that solo really exemplifies better than most others I’ve heard from him Shawn’s approach (which he described somewhere, I forget where) of using rapid-fire multi-note patterns to create melodic passages in much the same way as most “regular” guitarists use single notes to do the same.
      This approach even seems to distinguish him from most fast players. Whereas for most fast players, one hears many notes played individually in rapid sequence, with Shawn it was as if with all those dozens of notes he was often really just playing one long note that wound and glided it’s way across an ever evolving melodic landscape. Quite a distinctive approach that is shared only by a few others - Holdsworth comes to mind, for instance.

      First off, Thanks for the huge compliment, Shawn would be so honored by these comments and he would also appreciate you acknowledging what is really going on inside his solos.
      As for My wife, the only was we are able to see each other for now is to meet in Costa Rica. Either that or head back to the Philippines which my daughter says no way to.
      I continue to press on and trying to do this the proper and legal way... Just dont know why we continue to be turned down at every step.

Funny part is when i was in my late teen and early 20's i could listening to that souless shreding stuff (especially when it's supported by a very groovey and melodic backing track) but as i got older i completly gravited towards players that had a great balance with melody, soul and exciting technical fast playing.
