GS: This take really illustrates just how different things can get between versions. I sound like I've slipped back into a 1986 Paper Bag headspace throughout most of it, and in comparison to the version on disc one this is downright weird. Which of course we were very happy about.
HS: From the opening drum pattern, this version of "Uncle Sun" is more aggressive than the version on the other "Jugalbandi: 1999" CD, and at 4:00 I shift gears and things really start going 'where no Uncle Sun has gone before'. Around 7:00 I shamelessly borrow from Carmine Appice's drum part on Vanilla Fudge's version of "Elenor Rigby", with Greg's pitch bender putting an end to my tribute about a minute later. The rest of the ride maintains a real high level of energy, and culminates in "The Closing Riff That Refuses To Die".
