Live:
Trumpeter Jack Walrath remembered: “Ray pulled this out of his hat and played it at the Apollo when we were there in 1971 [i.e. 23 to 29 June, BS]. None of us had ever heard this before and there were no horn parts. He only did this once and this was the most intense performance of the year I was with him. This is not a lie: He literally had us on our knees and sobbing!”
