Just thought I'd post some links for anyone who loves a great guitarist.
This fellow was one of those extremely rare talents who can almost undeniably be called a musical genius. Sadly he is no longer with us, but I feel the need to pass this along to people who may have never heard of him and remind those others who have.
I had the pleasure of seeing him win a battle of the bands contest here in Memphis back around 1977 when he was only 13. The last time I saw him play was at a small restaurant/bar in 1994 where I got to chat briefly with him between sets. A genuinely nice man.
Shawn Lane (1963-2003)

Not Again
And for some real fun check this out. The band he is playing with, Target, is where Jimi Jamison came from, who became the lead singer for Survivor; they of the "Eye of the Tiger" fame.
All Along the Watchtower
