Several edits are audible in the composite version of "Stuff." According to the
notes in the Quintet box (Mosaic MQ10-177, Columbia C6K 67398), "The first part
of the performance is from the second run-through of the melody and is spliced
onto a slower first take (at 1:50), which is a complete take."
This is Hancock's first turn at the Fender Rhodes electric piano; Carter plays
the electric bass; and Davis and Shorter are clearly amplified throughout. The tune
is the most unabashedly soulful of Davis's 1960s originals to date. Change was
in the wind.
In addition to its busy studio schedule (six dates in just over a month), the Quintet
was also busy with live dates, including the Guthrie Theatre, Minneapolis (May 26),
Showboat Lounge, Philadelphia (May 29-June 5), Village Gate, New York (July 16-28,
with Miroslav Vitous subbing for Carter), the Laurel Jazz Festival (August 2), the
New York Jazz Festival at Randall's Island (August 17), Peyton Place, Baltimore
(September 17-22), Chicago's Plugged Nickel Club (September 25-29), Royce Hall
on the UCLA campus (October 5), Las Lomas High School Auditorium, Walnut Creek (October
6), San Francisco's Both/And Club (October 8-20), Shelly's Manne-Hole (October
22-November 3).
