The issue on the Up Front label has 6 tracks. The Trip issue has 8 tracks. Was it ever out before Trip? That was a budget label related to Springboard, wasn't it?

Most Trips were reissues. But there are a few Willis Jacksons, a Randy Weston and this, that I'm pretty sure were never out before. No doubt there were others.

The sleeves say the label was a division of Springboard Int.

The above is a collective personnel listing taken from the first issue of these tracks on the Trip label. Amalbert, Jones, Patterson, Ellington, and Derrick are listed as members of the Latin Jazz Quintet, all others as guests. Other than this personnel listing the back cover or labels do not show composer credits nor track timings - the composer credits are from http://members.aol.com/ishorst/love/discsand.html except for the Sierra Madre theme and Ray Bryant's tune.
Place and date of this session are unknown. Some sources claim it was Pharoah Sanders' first recording session, which would date it in the second half of 1962, before his first session for ESP (January 4, 1963) and after the Latin Jazz Quintet's last for Prestige (April 20, 1962). Its first release on LP was ca. 1971.
The two tracks on the 45rpm single, released as "Juan Amalbert And His Band probably are from this session. Track f titled Brok'tit Off In Harlem on the 45 rpm issue.
