"Ease on Down the Road", “Brand New Day”, and "You Can't Win" (Original Soundtrack Version)

Date range assessed by the fact that in early July, Michael and LaToya moved to New York due to him getting the part, and the soundtrack was most likely recorded before principal photography on October 3, 1977.
