​@@joanstone6740 thank you for the name drop I can't play guitar but love listening to great music

saw this trio 5/3/97 at a very small club in Albany NY. They took a break and I went right up to him and struck up a conversation. We went out to smoke and he pulled out a joint of some crazy good shit. He was a "polymath" a super genius. He said he'd go to the library n every town he played at and read 4 or 5 books A DAY ! My teacher (Chuck D'Aloia - a monster jazz player in his own right) didn't "like" the show, said "not my cup of tea" (ego got n the way)Beside the beautiful orchestral compositional fluidity or whatever words you try to apply to his playing it's also amazing to think that if all the notes played by shawn that are on KZread were counted, it probably would be a number equivalent to the number of stars in our galaxy.

10 notes per second on average will give him some 60k notes per show. Now, one show this long for 10 000 days will give him 600 million notes, which is probably three orders of magnitude (three powers of ten) less than the stars in our galaxy. At least one thousand Solar systems for each note Shawn has ever played - see how huge our Galaxy is?

So, while I might resist it at first, I've got to say these guys are in fact in a universe well beyond Cream. Figure there's been 50 years of musical development and maturation since then, and these 3 are the currrent cream of the crop. Or were, so sad to say. These guys are just astounding. This video is like a gift from the heavens. Many thanks to 'alexsh' for the upload.

THIS IS MUSIC

It's just Mind blowing after all these years

I was lucky enough to hear Hellborg, Lane & Sipe @ Blues Alley in DC. My bass teacher said "you've got to see these guys. They're all great, Hellborg is astounding." I said something noncommittal like; "Well maybe, Blues Alley in the middle of the week ... I don't know, maybe" Jon said; "No, you have to go. I'll buy the tickets, I'll drive, you *have* to go!" So we did. The club was nearly empty for that, the 1st set of the night. We sat about 25' from the stage, right in front of the bass amp, far enough for the sound field to fully develop. I don't think I had my eyes open more than 30 or 40 seconds during the set; truly transportation-al music. The only time I remember having such an experience was w/ the original Mahavishnu quintet, 20 years prior! When I opened my eyes, the 1st thing I saw were the eyes of the only person seated next to me, a woman about 30-35. We just *looked* in each others eyes for 1/2 a minute or so, then she said; "Jesus, did you feel that too?" and I said; "Yes I did, yeah. Was that great, or *what*?"" At that point the other person at her table, a guy, took her shoulder and said; "C'mon baby, let's go." I said; "See you." She said; "See you later." He said "No you *won't*" and led her out. LOL!! WHAT A SHOW"
