The Davis Septet was booked for six nights at Just Jazz, May 12-17 (Monday-Friday), two sets per night (9pm and 11pm). I don't know which night or set this music is from.

"Untitled original 750505" was first performed in the studio on May 5. It was a standard set closer during May-July 1975. Davis occasionally plays organ during this tune.

I am grateful to Len Pogost for help with this session.
