As documented on recordings, this is a work for soprano saxophone, trumpet, bass, and drums; Hemphill added a guitar part when he performed the piece with his JAH band. The archive contains professionally copied soprano saxophone and bass parts; parts in holograph for trumpet and guitar; and a concert score for two voices, in treble and bass clef. The treble melody line is first designated for flute, then suggested for soprano saxophone 8vb. The bass clef part is mostly single notes, though double stops may indicate a cello.
From Marty Ehrlich: This piece has a graceful, almost tongue-in-cheek melody. A full score of the piece could be put together from the parts.
