Devo
May 25, 1977 early show (1977-05-25)
Max's Kansas City
New York City

As far as I can tell, nothing here has been released. The Live from The Bottom Line 1977 tracks that were released on the Rhino Records "The Mongoloid Years" were listed on the CD's back cover as being from May, 1977 and sound completely different from what's here. Discogs lists the tracks as actually being from either May or November 1977 Max's as per:

The versions of the tracks here are mostly much less amped up than what's on the Rhino release, so I'm inclined to think that the Rhino tracks are more likely from the November 14th or 15th, '77 Max's shows, but in any case are different from what's here.
