The band tries to kill the pre-SSDD jam, but Jerry is having no part of it and he plays on.

Mexicali Blues

Adams Field House, U of Montana

I don't get it. This is just OK - there's nothing hot about it. Jerry and Keith aren't doing much of anything and Phil's singing is bad. Go ahead - waste three minutes and fifty-one seconds of your life to confirm it.
Me and My Uncle
April 24, 1978
Horton Field House - Illinois State University

I've never seen anybody walk out of a show and say "Man, that was a sweet Me & My Uncle they did tonight!". Usually when they play it, you're waiting for the song that comes after it. That being said, this is a fun version. Bob has a hard time fighting back the laughter.
Eyes Of The World

Nassau Coliseum

This is the most overrated version. Jerry steps back letting Branford take the lead, but Branford also steps back to let Jerry take the lead. The end result is that not much of anything gets done.
