What a compelling argument.
You cannot compare ... ( 3 months ago by UberDTfreaK)
You cannot compare Yngwie to Shawn. Yngwie was a shredder and Shawn was a jazz fusion artist. You can't compare artists of different genres. Compare Megadeth to Metallica all you want, but comparing Yngwie and Shawn is like comparing Batio to Coltrane. They are both amazing at what they do, but they do different things. Personally, I love both, but it shouldn't be about who's better, especially when you're comparing two artists that are beyond comparison.

I don't think I ever compared Yngwie to Shawn Lawe. I only responded to a preexisting discussion in the comments about him.

Oh, you just felt like spurring up an Yngwie conversation on a Shawn Lane video without connecting the two?

Look up Guthrie Govan. He's definately my favourite player at the moment.

im not here to talk about an unimaginative shredder, so i hope you guys will start talking about jazz sometime soon
First place, Shawn ... ( 2 months ago by Chazzy68)
First place, Shawn Lane was not a jazz fusion artist; I would consider him more of a rock fusion artist. I just wanted to make that point clear. What would have impressed me? If Shawn would have played John Coltrane's tenor sax solo (or improvised something similar) from Giant Steps on guitar, that would have impressed me; which obviously he couldn't do without having knowledge of advanced jazz harmony/theory.
You obviously don't ... ( 2 months ago by Revelatore)
You obviously don't know Shawn Lane very well. Your opinion on wether he knows jazz harmony/theory is unvalid for the simple fact that you have no experience with who he is. You are ignorant and arrogant. Shawn lane was a master of Jazz harmony / theory and his albums and live stuff prove it well. Just because he did not solo does not mean he has no understanding. It is you that lacks the understanding of why he did not solo. Show some respect for your god.
What the hell, do ... ( 2 months ago by EduardoLirani)
What the hell, do you seriously think that Shawn couldn't have easily played the solo if he wanted to?

Are you kidding me? ... ( 1 month ago by waylay00)
Are you kidding me? Morse is an Yngwie clone? First of all, Steve Morse's style is completely different than Yngwie's. Second, he was playing with the Dregs long before anyone even knew who Yngwie was.

STFU people, let's listen to SHAWN HERE!
Chazzy, I agree ... ( 2 weeks ago by KeithWhalen11)
Chazzy, I agree with you on certain fronts. I would hesitate to classify Shawn as a strict jazz artist myself, but to insinuate that he had no knowledge of theory/harmony because he didn't blow over Coltrane changes isn't a strong argument. I played the Steps solo note for note, but I have no idea where to start for improvising like 99% of guitar players with the exceptions of Scott Henderson and Joe Diorio. Shawn was a brilliant player and here he is simply sharing his love for Coltrane with us
What I don't get is ... ( 2 weeks ago by KeithWhalen11)
What I don't get is how people try to dumb Shawn's playing down when it comes to something like this. He probably enjoyed Coltrane, but to be honest he mentioned Charlie Parker far more frequently and you can hear the influence in his phrasing a lot more. With that being said, when listening to his Mike Varney demo tape I hear things that I've never heard from ANYONE else in my life before which totally blow me away. I'm glad Shawn was an original and not something who could simply play changes
