Not only his speed, but his harmonic palate was among the richest I think I’ve ever heard. Analyzing phrases from his “Black Market” solo is an absolute masterclass in playing “outside.” Love these choices in this video. My favorite terrifying moment is the solo he does with Sean Rickmann after “Not Again” on the Powers of Ten Live album. There’s playing on that solo that is straight up dumbfounding. And I could keep going on his playing if you let me. Breaks my heart I’ll never get to see this guy live.

@@visionboxed Honestly everything, I have yet to see an area of his playing with any weak spots. I guess maybe you could say he sometimes overplays a bit, like shredding for too long can be overbearing. But to put it simple. He has the greatest technique, everything he plays is flawless. His speed is so fast that it seems supernatural(there are some guys nowadays faster than him but tbh any speed above his is completely absurd and unnecessary, and barely even audible) His phrasing, improv skills, and tone seems straight from heaven, I can’t even explain how purely musical he is. And is an actual great composer unlike many shredders.

Wow I just discovered him yesterday. I don't think anyone can argue that someone else was faster or more astute guitar master. I'm not even into super fast shredding because mostly it ends up sounding like an angry bee. But what he has going on goes way beyond that. God certainly blessed this man although he certainly never gained the recognition he absolutely deserved. That Kalcuta track brought me to tears just now.

Shawn's Hey Tee Bone solo is probably one of the single-most impressive solos ever recorded. Everything about it is a feat (his solo on 'So What' is also up there). Slow the timing down and everything is perfectly on beat, the note choices are simply incredible, the melodic styles switch around mid-solo from blues to classical to jazz and to things that are simply undefinable, the articulation for every note is clear as day (which makes it all the more impressive given the speeds at which he's playing)... it's absurd. I've studied this solo closely for many years because of just how incredible it is and it's WAY harder to play than it sounds (and it obviously sounds insane already). Plus, THIS WAS THE FIRST or SECOND TAKE (as told to me by some of the folks who knew him personally). The only cut in the solo is the last couple measures, which adds that diminished line. Clearly, this was just a walk-in-the-park for Shawn, because in order to play that fast, that cleanly, that perfectly on beat, and with such articulation both hands, he was absolutely capable of playing much faster. Shawn was a prodigious savant - an incredible rarity with a mind and nervous system so unique that we're unlikely to find many multi-instrumentalists quite like him. And, considering his multitude of passions (with guitar being only a small part of his life), one can only imagine if he stuck strictly to guitar - his playing would've been truly irrepetible (clearly it is already). We were lucky to have him here for the short time he was around. Best part, is that he was supremely humble. He wanted to be treated just like anyone else, and I'm sure it was difficult being that guy that everyone admires as an otherworldly person. The guitar world is privileged to have had him and his legacy continues to grow, as it always will. Let's all be thankful for his time here and what he graced us with.

Nice video. Guitarist myself who became aware of Shawn around 25 years ago and couldn’t believe what I was hearing. I’m really happy people are giving him the recognition he deserves. He was a true one off genius, and all the guitarists knew it. A clip of Shawn’s playing that has somehow gone under the radar is his solo with the Willy’s playing a cover of Cult of Personality. It’s here on KZbin. I would strongly recommend you securely strap yourself in for what happens from around 3:12. He doesn’t hold back ! Enjoy.

That last solo was insane. Tell me someone who could play those lines that fast even today? I can't think of anyone. Even Gambale can pick that fast using alternate picking and even combo alt/legato. He might be able to sweep some stuff but Shawn almost never did sweep picking. Those were all alt picked with a few hammer/pulloffs sometimes. Crazy. Physically, he definitely was in his prime at that point. That's more blistering than anything he did at that MIT clinic. I think you definitely picked the best solo for last. Just blazing and more blazing till the end.

@@eniph2953 I appreciate the techicality and especially innovativity of guitarists like Caswell, but the rarest thing among guitarists is musicality. Interesting AND beautiful solos are exceedingly rare. Most shredders just play mind-numbingly boring lines. I get it, as an immature guitarist you do that. They ruin many otherwise great songs but I don't have to like everything. Guitarists like Abasi or Caswell don't do that, but they overanalyze things. There's still no soul in the solos, only intellectual construction. Shawn makes it seem like he can play all the lines he can think about spontaneously, that his fingers work autonomously. And the lines he does come up with are unmatched in their beauty. He doesn't do the "complexity for complexity's sake" thing. What he does is much more difficult: play the perfect notes with the perfect tone and perfect phrasing that are still highly innovative for listeners like me who've "heard it all"

meh Holdsworth is far more interesting yeah this guy shreds diatonic scales like nobody's business but the ear gets bored with it holdsworth was actually Sean's idol he could talk for hours about how fantastic Holdsworth was

maybe if youre judging from this video. Shawn's actual compositions are anything but boring. Ive known plenty of listeners get bored with Holdsworths ambiguous chords. Both are heros to me

You missed quite a bit, don't even have his Black Market performance in there but that one is basically one long solo lol. Nothing from Personae? C'mon man this list ain't even scratching the surface!

It's almost like he is playing the same thing every time, when he plays fast. After the first 10 seconds, after your ear gets used to it, you realize he had nowhere to go after he starts just speeding around. Technicality / 10 points. Memorable melodies / 0 points. Playing with any other feel beyond the slick 80's L.A thing / 0 points.

Listening to technical music is somewhat of an acquired taste, which you clearly have non of. Listen to all of his materiel and break down what he's doing not only melodically, but rhythmically. But hey, maybe you are the long lost soul maestro?
