DDT took their name from the initials of the three band member sirnames (two of them being brothers). DDT later became "North Mississippi Allstars"... Shawn played on 3 tracks on their 2003 album "Polaris".

I want to hear this played as I am lowered into my grave. Maybe also in the hospital while I can still hear then.

To the guy who said "Shawn is tuned up half a step here"...check your guitar tuner. I've been jamming along to this song for the last 4 minutes. Standard tuning...key of E major.

Hands down, favorite song ever...

Shawn was a musical genius, an artist that reached into his soul and left a piece of music that will always inspire and move me. A true musical poet!
