It would have been quite expensive to try for a second or third take. You're paying for the room, for the tape, and for at least one engineer and probably another guy, and except for the tape, it's all per hour.
They had likely played together enough that they planned to just do one take unless there was a hiccup.

- LargeWu 3y agoThe thing about this album though was that it used a groundbreaking style of playing in a single mode, no chord changes. This was completely counter to anything ever heard in the jazz world before. Nor had they practiced these songs before. For them to sit down and record what they did, the first time, is pretty unbelievable.
