Jazz Icons - John Coltrane Live in '60, '61 & '65

Overview

John Coltrane provides an epic 95-minute overview of a true giant of 20th-century music.

This DVD not only features Trane's classic quartet with Elvin Jones (drums), Jimmy Garrison (bass) and McCoy Tyner (piano), but also spotlights him onstage with other jazz legends including Stan Getz, Eric Dolphy and Oscar Peterson. Includes mind-blowing versions of his signature tunes "My Favorite Things" and "Impressions".
