According to the track sheet for this session, the original title for "Country Son" was "Seeing Thru." The notes to the Quintet box (Mosaic MQ10-177, Columbia C6K 67398) explain that "Rehearsed in sections, the released version [of "Country Son"] is the first complete take (the engineer missed the opening bars of take 2, the released version), but a drum pickup was found and added to the master." The alternate version of "Country Son" released in the Quintet box is take 3. The alternate rhythm-only version released in the Freedom Jazz Dance box is an excerpt of a rehearsal take.

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), 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).
