Notes to sessions:
# 2-15 to 3-4: These selections of The Massey Hall Quintet were transferred from the original single-channel mono recording tape made at the concert, before Charles Mingus, dissatisfied with the low level at which the bass had been recorded, added a new bass part.
# 3-5 to 3-11: The set of Massey Hall Quintet recordings heard on this disc are made from the tapes onto Charles Mingus added bass in ensemble passages (and in “All The Things You Are”, solo exchanges).
