Levin eventually told the others that if they didn't start to jam in three minutes, he'd just go home. The song "Three Minute Warning" is a recording of what followed. The recording was so unexpectedly fluent that the recording tape ran out after about 27 minutes into the jam, but luckily Portnoy's DAT recorder archived the ending as well. The back cover of the CD says: "CAUTION: "Three Minute Warning" is not for the musically faint-hearted, impatient, or critics of extreme self-indulgence. If you fall into any of the above categories, please hit the stop button on your CD player after track # 8." * Part of "Universal Mind" appears in the Jordan Rudess keyboard solo on the Dream Theater album Live Scenes from New York. * The piano at the ending of "Universal Mind" contains a variation on the common Heart and soul-song, as well as an excerpt from the military march Entrance of the Gladiators. * "Chris and Kevin's Excellent Adventure" is not a reference to two previous members of Dream Theater, Chris Collins and Kevin Moore. Rather, it was named because of a promo photographer who, during a photo session, kept calling Mike Portnoy and Tony Levin "Chris" and "Kevin", even after being corrected several times. The duo decided to adapt the names for their two-and-a-half minute jam track. It is also a reference to the 1991 film, "Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure".
