Anyone else really likes Shawn Lane?

I think, he is quite incredible. I especially like his playing with Jonas Hellborg on bass.
His guitar sings. Very authentic.

And many others. To put other things aside because it's a matter of taste, his technique is quite weak compared to some guitar players including Shawn Lane.

And the best Spanish guitar I heard is Paco de Lucia. In fact, I would really like to hear McLaughlin/Lane duo with Jonas Hellborg or Dominique Di Piazza on bass and Trilok Gurtu on percussion. Not going to happen - Shawn is gone forever. Such a great performer, just listen to how he plays blues and improvised fusion. True art, like it or not.
