This is Ray Gomez who invented this music, but who played it first, Lane or Satriani ?

@SweeetPicker I didn't know Satriani had ever played this piece??

I've seen & heard countless numbers of celebrated axe men. Govan, Petrucci, Satriani, Friedman, etc....sorry folks, none of them, although all immensely talented, could have carried Shawn's shoes. As is the case with many of the aforementioned, too much contrivance. Shawn simply played on a different level that we're all still trying to understand.

Shawn was such a monster, he must have, despite his warm gentle nature, intimidated the s**t out of so many other players, much like the way Steve Morse still does today. I mean how do you get done watching that and even want to pick up your axe. Sure he may have inspired some, but, and I laugh, must have discouraged so many. Man I miss him so much. Thanks for all these vids MyShawnLaneVideos, ur the best.

Will be no other player like Lane in the history of guitar playing. R.I.P. Mr. Lane. <3

@chocolateMAN200 From what I've heard Satch Boogie is much inspired by this one

[Crussman499]

Shawn can play soooo many tasty things on the guitar. He was a great man.

Respond to this video...your thinking of satch boogie

Ho visto ed ascoltato centinaia e centinaia di chitarristi famosi e meno famosi ma una combinazione così esplosiva e strepitosa di perfezione tecnica, velocità warp e grande feeling ce l'ha solo Shawn Lane! Inarrivabile....

Grazie per tutti questi bellissimi video che finalmente rendono giustizia al più grande electric guitar player esistito finora!

This is absolutely frightening!! Right now I'm still lying in the fetal position in the corner of my bedroom
