Donor notes: First item is a fragment of a performance or rehearsal. Percussion, rhythm sect. Sounds like this was taped over. Second item is rehearsal of a tune. Juma thinks it is Earl Cross' band. Third item is a rehearsal (same as first band?). Sex tet. Juma confirms by ear that it is Joey Aponte. Latin band, playing vamp tune. (no new track for third item). Talk between takes, but difficult to hear. This is much longer, taking majority of tape. Several tunes are rehearsed. Rehearsal likely at Studio We.
