Notes:
2. poor recording; has not been performed live yet as of March 05; note that a soundcheck recording of "No Time To Think" (the 3rd track on the studio album) circulates, but the quality is markedly inferior to "New Pony," so I chose not to include it.
5. Dylan did not debut the intro story about the "old man with his eyes on fire" until San Diego, November 17th
9. only solo performance of this song in '78
10. mixed source recording, with merge at 0:47
11. "second version" lyrics; does not include my favorite line from the "first version," "I pulled you out of dope scenes, orgies and jam sessions too."
13. second of only two '78 performances
14. only live performance to date as of March 05; a studio demo circulates, as well
15. final number from the final '78 show; minor tape problems 4:07 > 4:11
17. poor recording; author unknown, possibly Dylan; sounds of taping device being moved 0:00 > 0:29, minor edit 0:24
