| Notes: | Official (out of print) "Rhino Handmade" release of the full show. This was originally released as a 2 lp bootleg set years ago and was taken from a radio broadcast from WLIW on Long Island, NY (The WLIW DJ introduction was present on the lp but has been cut from the cd). It was then released as a boot on cd but missing 4 songs (Bat Chain Puller, Apes-Ma, Moonlight On Vermont and Veteran's Day Poppy). This is the full show. In order to fit the full show (approximately 85 minutes) Rhino released the set with one full disc and one disc containing the 10 minute 2-song encore).
