Notes:
Errors in printed song title credits on booklet / packaging:
Track 5 is "Song of India", a song adapted from Rimsky-Korsakov's 1896 opera "Sadko" and recorded by the Tommy Dorsey Orchestra in the 1937. Gatton earlier recorded "Song of India" for what became the "Redneck Jazz Explosion" album.
(Track 5 is not "Land of Make Believe", a 1973 song by Chuck Mangione that Gatton recorded for multiple albums, including "In Concert 9/9/94" and "Redneck Jazz Explosion".)
Track 10 is "Melancholy Serenade", a 1952 song co-written by actor Jackie Gleason. Gatton recorded "Melancholy Serenade" for his "Unfinished Business" album as well.
(Track 10 is not "Harlem Nocturne," a 1940 song by Earle Hagen which Gatton featured on multiple recordings, including "American Music" from 1975.)
Track 4 is better known by its full title, "Take the 'A' Train". The song is copyrighted to, and composed by, Billy Strayhorn alone (not Duke Ellington/Billy Strayhorn).
Track 9, "Well You Needn't / Rock Candy", incorrectly lists Dizzy Gillespie as a composer, along with Jack McDuff, who composed "Rock Candy". "Well You Needn't" was composed by Thelonious Monk.
