Take two! (how many bars?)
Uh, why don't you count it off? (alright)
You three start together on this. (alright)
1...2...1.2.
Bill Lantz commented on CD-ROM enhanced portion of the disc.
  A long jam with Ian, Sugarcane and Frank trading off solos. Ian whips it out (including approximately 3 new minutes on the 1995 CD), followed by Sugarcane on violin and then Frank on guitar. A nifty percussion/drum break follows, and then Frank and Sugarcane trade off screaming solos. Check out the Frank's feedback towards the end underneath Sugarcane's squealing violin.
From: unknown
  Anyone else notice that at exactly 3:24 into the (1987) Gumbo Variations of of _Hot Rats_, Ian Underwood quotes the melody of that recently overplayed pop bilge specimen "Macarena"?
From: Daniel Wineman (djw8@cornell.edu)
  I know, Macarena is actually a remake of a song that's decades old, but that didn't stop me from nearly losing a filling when I heard it on a record dating from 1969!
