Ian Mclagan mentions in his great autobiography “All the Rage” that the last show was at the Minneapolis Labor Temple on November 1st, 1975 and there is a release from ten years ago or so on Scorpio called ‘Big Easy’ which features an audience recording of a show in New Orleans dated September 23rd, ’75. Numbers from Stewart’s then-new ‘Atlantic Crossing’ solo lp are performed. Perhaps that Vancouver show in March of ’75 just marked the end of that leg of the farewell tour-or what followed in the Fall was a separate entity altogether.

Also, there is an audience recording of the San Bernadino show (released about 7-8 years ago on the Massive Attack cd-r label as ‘Long Gone’) which does include the opening number, ‘It’s All Over Now’, so there is confirmation that it was performed (you’re right, ‘Take A Look At the Guy’ would have been a really odd opener, though a cool one !). Just a couple very minor additions to your review.
