An odd little assortment of tracks here, perhaps again from Jet's place. Another version of 'Tomorrow Was' with JJ covering vocal duties, but not the best sounding. There is a much better (and dare I say it funnier version by virtue of JJ's Bobby 'Boris' Pickett vocals!) on here somewhere if you care to look.
I have no further information on the story behind this particular recording. A brief message exchange with Chatts has come up with the following scenario. Listening back to this collection, 'Tomorrow Was' is not live, it is the SIS version. Either whoever put these four songs together way back when just added it as a 'rarity' or something else was going on. Could it be that after release of 'Tomorrow Was (The Hereafter)' by SIS (SIS 001) in 1980 the song may have been considered for inclusion in the live set and inclusion here of the 1976 version was the initial step to working the song up to a gig ready state? If this was the case, it came to nothing. But perhaps the seed was sown in a way that resulted in the cocktail version of 'Nubiles' (the B-side of SIS 001) featured a couple of years later in the Feline tour set.
All pure speculation of course.
