Hi! I just wanna pay my tribute to Shawn Lane.As a musician myself working with music,listening to music many hours per week i sometimes get tired of it,there is no music that catches my ear.But since i`ve been listening to shawns music the past year or so i must say it really has increased my interest for music again.Sometimes when i drive
to my work tired as hell i play shawns songs and then i forget how tired i am.I think i`ve been playing the same ten songs hundred times in a row i never get tired of them.So, a big thank you from sweden to shawn and his music,i`m gonna buy all cd:s that are available in sweden(expensive import worth every krona)./Frank Albertsson
I Just recently heard of the passing of
this great Musician.I used to go see him
play when I was a kid(I'm originally from Memphis).He raised the bar FOR ALL
MUSICIANS.Without his influence I wouldn't be half the Guitar player I am
today.RIP
It's been a while since I left a message here. To the family ; You are always in my thoughts.
"Both light and shadow are the dance of Love. Love has no cause; it is the astrolabe of God’s secrets. Lover and Loving are inseparable and timeless.
Although I may try to write about Love
I am rendered helpless;
my pen breaks and the paper slips away
at the ineffable place
where Lover, Loving and Loved are one.
Every moment is made glorious
by the light of Love. " Rumi
Shawn's music is sooo powerful!! He is like the Hendrix of my generation. His collaborations with Hellborg & Sipe are timeless original pieces that trandsend every musical genre imaginable. I love his music and I wish I could have sat at the feet of the Master.

Amo as músicas do Shawn!
Ele foi um privilegiado em ter o dom da música, a música também foi privilegiada de ter Shawn! Que você possa estar nas mãos do Criador!
(In English)
I love Shawn's music!
It was a privilege to have Shawn's music, and music was also privileged to have Shawn! Now he is in the hands of the creator!
Late Happy Birthday Shawn! I am new to ur music as I'm 20. I was looking for a music that can talk"Gray piano's flying" and cry "Epilogue for lisa" at the same time and you gave me that. I'll remember you more as a musician who gave many meaning to the music world unlike some commercial musician who never gives back but just takes. I'm proud that I heard you like many others of this world. As it's a great shame for Bach, Listz, Chopin and all other composers who died without even knowing your music. So praise to you big brother as We're all getting closer to you everyday. 🙂
To My Baby Brother (Shawn)
You made me listen
I will think of you when I hear the music of the sunset,
or the stillness of sunrise.
When I hear the birds sing or watch them fly across the skys.
I will think of you when the wind moans or gently whispers.
When the rain makes drumbeats on my roof
or gently plays a concerto on my window.
You brought light and music to my world.
You made me listen to sounds unheard.
You made me laugh and cry and dance and sing!
I will forever hear your music and your laughter!
Happy Birthday Baby!
I love you!
Thank you, Trevor! Hello to everyone. Happy birthday Shawn Lane and JS Bach! Remembering his gentle soul, his music, his genius, his laughter, and his love of all things. We miss you! Now he plays with the masters and the angels forever loved. On March 21st, play a song for Shawn.
its been a long time since anybody had a concert in shawns memory. its time he's due. :confused:
Thanks to Keenan for placing Shawn's music into my sphere.... Shawn's music has blessed and inspired me today!!!
His music is a true legacy!!!
Peace To All!!
A new video clip of Shawn Lane performing has been found!
This incredible piece was discovered while I was digitizing some ancient videotapes of Target (the legendary Memphis band) for Jimi Jamison. You can imagine how my heart leaped into my throat as I heard Target call Shawn onto the stage near the end of the video... Then he proceeded to play All Along The Watchtower!!!
Videotaped in 1989 at club NightMoves in Memphis, TN during Target's 10 year reunion concert, it's an end of show jam featuring Shawn and Rob Caudle (vocals / bass) as special guests.
This is a slice of Shawn at his crowd pleasing best... He takes an old classic rock standard and makes it naw and all his own. Hendrix HAS to be smiling down over this version!
This clip is available for viewing (free of course) on my website. Just look for the video link right there at the top of the stevecox.com main page.
As a public service in honor of my dear friend Shawn and his immortal talent, I will continue to host this video for free as long as I have a website on the Internet... And I've been around 10 years, so far. 😀
Shawn and I are about 6 months apart in age. I first heard him when we were both 17. To this day I'm deeply moved by his music and musicianship. Truly one of the most influential musicians of my life. Thank you Shawn. God bless you and your family. I look forward to playing with you one day.
Hello to Shawn Lane and his family.
I listen so often to his music. I appriciate a lot his compositions and his heartfull playing. I never met him in my life. One day I'll meet him I'm shure! He is waiting for me, as he waits for all keeping his memory alive.
With a heart full of joy to make music...
Paul
he stay the most invested guitarist, i hope to jam with him to the other side 🙂
I saw Shawn at A.I.M. 10 yrs ago. I had the flu and went to check out his performace because I had to see him play. God bless him.
I Just dropped in to see Shawns website..As I have not been here in a while..I just returned from the Ukraine and I took a lot of American Music with me And of Course I took Shawn Along to......You blew them away Shawn...I would like to ask, Did Shawn ever play any Eastern European Countries Like Russia or Ukraine??? Spasibo (Thanks) 🙂
Absolutely the best there ever was!!
His inspiration and genius will live on forever in everyone that he touched!
thanks Shawn
He has passed away but his music lives forver! What a inspiration he was for me...I saw him at a clinic way back in Germany in front of only 10 people he was wailing and made me go home and try to learn as much as I can about music (and not only technique) up until today. I never thanked him for this....
Shawn lane is genius i can play some of his stuff and i wish he was still here
peace
