Here is Shawn Lane with DDT playing "Peace in Mississippi", at Newby's, Memphis, TN, on the 27th Jan 1995.

D.D.T. was a band Shawn played with between 1994-1995 that consisted of :

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".

does anyone know if there exists an original video recording of this song?

[MyShawnLaneVideos]

Do you mean by Shawn, or by Jimi himself?

[peaceonearth777]

If you mean Eric Johnson, I doubt it. He has been a staple in great guitar since the early seventies. For those lucky enough to hear him then. I knew Shawn from Arkansas, he was wild. Sad loss. Peace on,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Jimi would be proud

[mick853]

I was lucky enough to have known Shawn well enough to have been to his house a number of times, I still have a cassette that he made and gave to me in 1992 that has this song on when he had just wrote it.

All I want to know is: where is the crossroads where I can sell my soul to play like this?

[shadowknight132]

The last fast part sounds like finger nubs. It's crazy and deceiving to the ear. Awesome!

[scarter180]

EJ as in Eric Johnson? They were actually good friends and jammed a few times. Eric is the master of tone, and Shawn is the master of technique.

[slapgup]

words cannot express how awesome this is!!!

[smp156]

i personally like the one on midnight lightning... or is it crash landing better

[nickwellings]

Love this so much. Esp. the album version!!

[hankjunior]

TOP NOTCH!

[nickwellings]

Maybe the other way around...maybe EJ listened to young Shawn and thought "pentatonics...cool!"
