[Powderworks] Bakerman

I remember hearing a concert from the Sydney Entertainment Centre in 83 on
2JJJ where Peter Garrett got the brass section, used for Power And The
Passion, out to play this small piece of music. When Bakerman on RSITS came
out in 84 I always had the feeling it was the same piece of music. However,
I don't think there was a Tuba player that night. Sadly I was unable to
record the concert so I never heard this again.
