Mexicali Blues
March 9, 1993
Rosemont Horizon

These more recent versions of Mexicali are by far more mature and developed than the older ones. The instrumental breaks are much longer and it's not just about Jerry taking a short jam anymore. I dig these newer ones.

War Memorial

Another bad mix on the soundboard. Bob's guitar is too loud and Keith is almost inaudible.

Paramount Theatre

Bob's guitar is loud in the mix and it gets really annoying. You can barely hear Keith - he shows up for a few seconds and disappears.

Soldiers' and Sailors' Memorial Hall

Things just sound out of synch for most of the tune. Jerry plays a few really sour notes. The timing of the harmonies are off in places.
Mexicali Blues

Olympiahalle

Tight version with some crisp guitar work, nice piano by Keith and solid vocals. One of the best from the 73-74 era.
