1. The Rise and Dear Demise of the Funky Nomadic Tribes (6:52)

I read from somewhere that the song was an improvisational jam track. Is it the only jam track that has made it onto a Lizzy LP?

2. Buffalo Gal (5:19)

A song about a guy who tells his girlfriend that he thinks it's in their best interest to end their relationship. I read this in "The Ballad of a Thin Man".

3. I Don't Want To Forget How To Jive (1:43)

A an impersonation of  ElvisPresley by Philip.

4. Sarah (version 1) (2:51)

A song that Philip named after and wrote for his Grandmother, Sarah. I saw version 2 on a compilation called 'Whiskey in the Jar'. Version 1 has all acoustic guitars on it and Version 2 has an acoustic playing rhythm and an electric playing the solo parts, I think that it is Gary Moore who plays electric guitar in the song.. 

5. Brought Down (4:08)

6. Baby Face (3:18)

7. Chatting Today (4:08)

8. Call the Police (3:28)

9. Shades of a Blue Orphanage

A song Philip wrote about his childhood. From somewhere I heard the name is a combination of Phil & Brian's old band 'The Orphanage' and Eric's old band 'Shades of Blue. 

L(L to R) Philip Lynott, Eric Bell and Brian Downey.
