Remebering Shawn Lane

September 26th, 2007 5:15 pm by SiLent_Man

…died this day, 4 years ago.

…his experience at Shillong and Aizwal was one of the most surreal moments of his life. The devotion, love and dedication of people there really made him feel like an icon. “Man, this place barely exists on the map and there are all these wonderful people coming out of the woodworks with Powers of 10 albums and posters that I haven’t even seen in America,” Shawn said with a smiling, disbelieving face. “They know everything I have ever done, every tune I have ever played… it’s just bizarre, simply inconceivable.”

Despite being one of the fastest fingers ever on the fret board and keyboards, he is best remembered for his melodic and rich tunes. His style may be best described as a shredding version of Eric Johnson.

His album Powers of Ten is considered to be one of the top 10 guitar instrumental albums of all time.

I was fortunate to see him perform at Vanapa Hall the year before his death.
