I saw this thread and jumped over to read his bio on Wikipedia. I was unfamiliar with the name before this. Quite a story (burned out from constant touring by age 18, dead at 40, and not really of his own doing, it seems). That's sad. A quick youtube visit demonstrated that this guy had some "mad skills" on the guitar. Not sure that this music's my cup of tea, but props where props are due.
I was unfamiliar with his also, I was watching a Buckethead lesson & he talked about how great Lane & Paul Gilbert were so I checked them both out. Well Herbie actually did the talking :)
He talks about him at the 3:30 mark, view at your own risk :)
