Note that on the official Bandcamp download release page https://thegreatleapforward.bandcamp.com/album/season-87-88 the running order is changed and the version of Who Works The Weather is mislabelled as the A version. It also appears to have been mastered from the vinyl as the start and end of the track are edited to disguise any vinyl surface noise (as have several other tracks on the digital version)
