This performance was edited and issued on CBS/Sony and Columbia as "In Concert"
I-IV. The first set is called "Foot Fooler" and the second "Slickaphonics" on Columbia
C2K 65140.
"Ife" evolved as it was performed during this period: the jaunty ten-note ascending-descending
vamp that was the basis of the studio version of the tune was supplemented (and
soon replaced) by a simpler four-note riff. In 1972 live performances, the tune
typically begins with the latter riff and shifts to the former (here the shift occurs
at 14:00). By early 1973 the simpler riff (with a slower tempo) replaced it completely.
"Chieftain" was first recorded in the studio on
August 23. It is commonly performed in a medley with "Rated X" during this period.
The transition occurs when Henderson begins the distinctive (and insistent) el-b
vamp. I am grateful to Jim Szabo for discussion on these tunes, and to Martin Booth
for additional help with this session.
The Davis Nonet was busy during this period: Paul's Mall, Boston (September 14-17);
Spectrum, Philadelphia (September 23); Lincoln Center, New York (September 29);
Stanford University Amphitheater, Palo Alto (October 1); Civic Theatre, San Diego
(October 8).
