Shawn Lane, Jonas Hellborg & Jeff Sipe, Lake Toxaway, NC, 8-08-1996 (SBD)


Shawn Lane was one of the most technically accomplished players of all time with a melodic ear, Lane was named by the American Guitar Institute as the "greatest guitarist who ever lived".  Shawn Lane died in 2003 but we can still hear his music.  This is a great recording of him shredding on the guitar with amazing bass player Jonas Helborg and the great Jeff Sipe on drums.  The musicianship on this is amazing.

  1. Many thanks for this - not many people post Shawn Lane despite his incredible talent and that of his bandmates Hellborg and Sipe. If you would like more, I have some fifty concerts of theirs in lossless WAV (including this one) and would be happy to send them to you, either in lossless or converted to mp3@320. FYI, this was the first day of a three-day festival:

  2. Sure, give us some links to some more. I remember back in the day there was a blog called Dr. fusion that had a lot of this but the links have been dead for a very long time.

  7. That's great, AZ and Dave. I remember this trio called themselves "jazz terrorists" as they were able to play everything and too far away from an standard jazz trio. Shawn Lane deserves to be remembered. Thanks again!
