In culture

"Save It for Later" is built on the unusual DADAAD guitar tuning that Dave Wakeling stumbled into while trying to tune to DADGAD to play along with John Martyn in the late 1970s. [1] The tuning was singular enough that The Who's Pete Townshend telephoned Wakeling to ask how to play the song, and Townshend went on to record his own version on Deep End Live! in 1986. [2] The recording has been used across films from Kingpin (1996) to Big Daddy (1999), Funny People (2009), and Hot Tub Time Machine (2010), and decades later Eddie Vedder covered it for The Bear's third season. [3]

Every place this record has lived. A solid chip states a fact and carries the citation that earns it; a dashed one is a connection somebody drew, and carries their name instead.
