Birdland 1962

This may be one of the pearls in the history of jazz recordings, the John Coltrane Quartet featuring: McCoy Tyner, Jimmy Garrison, and Elvin Jones with guest Eric Dolphy. It's the John Coltrane Quartet at its peak with Elvin Jones confirming once again his rank as one of the all times greatest percussionists. The program on that fiery broadcast night in February 1962 on Symphony Sid's (a long-time jazz disc jockey in the United States) radio program included three long selections: "Mr. PC", "Miles' Mode" (aka "Red Planet"), and a nearly 20-minute reading of "My Favorite Things", which Trane always performed as an extended jam.
