Notes

Recorded May 14 thru May 23, 1976 at Studio Rivbea, 24 Bond Street, New York, New York.

Note:
1. Due to technical live recording problems, the beginning of "The Need To Smile" was not properly recorded. The producers felt the performance strong enough to include it with a logical beginning at the soprano saxophone solo.
2. "73°-S Kelvin" is an excerpt of a continuous performance.
3. "And Then They Danced" is presented here in its entirety. It fades rather than ends with applause because it was part of a continuous set where one composition followed into the next.
