John Coltrane
My Favorite Things


This is one of Coltrane's greatest. The most recognizable piece from this album is, of course, the title track, which is a version of the song from The Sound of Music. I think "Do-Ra-Me" was very influential on Coltrane's atonal experimentation. They both use scales, and they both uses the scales to go off on tangents. I bet Coltrane and Julie Andrews have a lot in common.
