‎'My Favorite Things' (1961, video) was Coltrane's first session for Atlantic with: (spotlight artist) Elvin Jones-Drums, Tyner-Piano, Steve Davis-Bass, Eric Dolphy-flute. Jones continued to influence music, bridging the gap between hard bop and the avant-garde. 'Elveen' is the younger brother of Hank (12:41) and Thad, oh yeah!
