Looks like a new version to me… previous editions (as On The Beach) didn't have the full set far as I can tell:

Just possible that this is a different gig to that already circulating as they apparently headlined both nights with 90-minute sets.

This from a newspaper archive site (a pay-for; hence the missing words from this taster!):

I don't know about the Japanese reaction, but it received an enthusiastic response in Springfield MA, May 15, 1979. Carl was in great gritty voice that day.  :-D

Shortenin' Bread isn't an objectively weird song if you don't know the history behind it.
