Parker: I'd like to mention one point... It's not calling numbers on the bandstand, as well as I remember to call it. But anything you'd like... Here? Unidentified person: "Home in Indiana." Parker: "Home in Indiana"? [Undecipherable] Thank you very much...

Splice at 2:14. Parker quotes "Confirmation" (0:49-0:52). At 1:06-1:26 voices can be heard -- someone seems to be hassling Benedetti about a tip: "...break my ass just to get a four dollar tip... five dollar tip..."

Note:

Recorded by Dean Benedetti.
The Parker Quintet was booked at the Onyx Club for six nights, July 6-11 (Tuesday-Sunday). The Benedetti material issued by
Mosaic includes parts of at least four of these nights (July 6, 7, 10, and 11), plus a bit of an afternoon rehearsal (July 10).
While they're certainly important, these recordings are disappointing, especially compared to those made earlier at the Three Deuces.
The fidelity is quite poor throughout, and the items are all edited one way or another.
