Episode Synopsis

Shaun passed away having touched the hearts and minds of thousands of the world’s most creative and influential hearts and minds through his music in the early 80s. There was never anything like dancing to Shaun’s early morning beats. The Saint’s dome was staggering. It took thousands of dancers into a new dimension of light and sound. But when Johnny Mathis’ Begin the Beguine came on, all eyes and ears turned to Shaun who was about to begin a signature encore. Though Shaun was also known for his Sunday morning sets at Moonshadow and for playing the Pavilion on Fire Island, Shaun was determined to play the top clubs in New York, he went from making a demo cassette for a hair salon as a hobby… to getting it played in a small bar called The Break beneath his Chelsea apartment and on to the big leagues in less than a year.
