Here's a full quality version of Shawn Lane playing "Gray Pianos Flying", with Sean Rickman on drums. This footage is from Shawn's "Power Licks" instructional video and was privately shot at KTZZ-TV in Seattle, WA. in 1993.

There were 3 lots of actual performance footage used for Shawn's 2 REH videos... live footage of Shawn playing at Sneaky Petes, Memphis (on the 13th Dec 1991) was used for the intro for the first video (Power Licks).... but as for the performance footage from during both videos, some of it was taken at "Musicians Institute, Hollywood, CA - 5th Feb 1993" (with full Powers of Ten band minus Todd Bobo/sax who apparently couldn't make it that day.... there is a live audience for this footage)....... the rest of the performance footage from his instructional videos (ie. "Rules of the Game", "Gray Piano's Flying", "Not Again" and one of the versions of "Epilogue: for Lisa") with just Shawn Lane and Sean Rickman playing to backing tracks in a private studio, with no audience, was filmed in 1993 at "KTZZ - TV, Seattle, WA.
There were two versions of "Epilogue: for Lisa" in Shawn's instructional videos. The version near the end of the first video (Power Licks) was taken from the Seattle footage (with no audience), and the version during the end credits of the second video (Power Solos) was taken from the "MIT - 5th Feb 1993" concert footage.

    One of my favourite licks ever! It's such a pain that the S**t director did that zoom out thing with the camera at the worst possible time!

    It's buried so you can't really hear it, but I'm sure most people would go, "omfg he's not even hitting them right".

  • well said man, ...

    well said man, health probably wasn't a priority. He also had psoriasis, which is not something you can just get rid of. I'm sure he knew his days were limited and that he might as well enjoy them while he still could...a huge contribution to the guitar that all of us maybe don't always realize.
