'Royal Flush' and 'Nica' are the same Sonny Clark composition.

To the best of my knowledge, Sonny records it under the title 'Royal Flush' for the last time on 3/29/59. He first records 'Nica' on 3/23/60.

In between, Max Roach records 'Nica' on 3/2/60.

Any idea how Max wound up using the new title before Sonny did? I guess it's possible that they hung out together, and Sonny gave him the piece wit hth enew title; Max appears on both the 3/2/60 and 3/23/60 sessions.
