This is an official Columbia release "Jazz At The Plaza" of rather low recording quality made many years after it was recorded. None of the artists involved particularly appreciated the release, as it was supposedly recorded simply for the sake of remembering the party.
The date on the Plaza Hotel is 09/09/58, not 07/28/58.

Miles Davis, trumpet; Cannonball Adderley, alto; John Coltrane, tenor; Paul Chambers, bass, Red Garland, piano; Jimmy Cobb, drums. That opener was a Miles Davis original, 'Sid's Ahead'. Now 'Bye Bye Blackbird'..."

Introduction 0:24
"Now that blackbird was flyin' waaay out there. Home base, though, was the Spotlite, the House That Jazz Built, Jazz Limited, in Washington DC. Motivating power, Miles Davis and the All-Stars. We have time, so we'll go right into a Thelonious Monk original, 'Straight, No Chaser'..."
