The sessions were engineered and overseen by [[David Rivkin]] (who is assumed to have produced the tracks as well). It is not known if the track was considered for inclusion on any project. The group had been playing the track live since at least 1973, however, although details of [[Grand Central]]’s live shows are not well known. |
