"Masqualero" remained in the live book until 1970, although Davis dropped the tune soon after Shorter left in March 1970. (The only post-Shorter performance I know of is from the Fillmore West in April 1970.)

Hancock and Carter recorded "The Sorcerer," along with "Riot" and "Speak Like a Child," for Hancock's album Speak Like a Child in March 1968.

This is the second of several New York studio sessions during May-July 1967. These sessions allowed the Quintet to develop new repertoire centered around original compositions. Only a few of these tunes -- "Masqualero," "Nefertiti," and "Riot" -- became staples of the Quintet's live performances, however.

After returning from the west coast in mid-May, the Quintet was booked at the Village Vanguard (June 2-4), then went to the Village Gate (July 4-16 opposite Dizzy Gillespie, and August 15-27 opposite Ornette Coleman). They also played at The Watts Summer Festival, held at the Shrine Auditorium in Los Angeles, on August 21-22.
