CommentFrom http://www.plosin.com/milesAhead/Sessions.aspx?s=600403

Exact date, venue, and location unknown. From March 21 through April 10 the Davis Quintet toured Europe under the auspices of Norman Granz's "Jazz at the Philharmonic." Surprisingly few recordings from this tour have surfaced.

If we assume that the titles listed above were all recorded on the same date, then given the two versions of "So What," it seems likely that the music comes from one of the dates with two concerts -- Munich, April 3, or Stuttgart, April 10. But this is very circumstantial.
