John Coltrane had already recorded numerous sessions as a sideman by 1959, accompanying such illustrious figures as Miles Davis, Thelonious Monk, Sonny Rollins, Kenny Burrell, and Tadd Dameron, among others. He had also taped quartet albums, some of which appeared under his own name while others were issued under the name of pianist Red Garland. Then came Giant Steps, which was the confirmation of Coltrane\'s importance in the jazz scene. There, for the first time, all of the tunes were his, and his personal style seemed completely developed. Coltrane Jazz was the first album to hit the shelves after Giant Steps and marked the transition from his experimental groups to his final classic quartet. The next album (chronologically) in Trane\'s discography was My Favorite Things, one of his bestselling LPs ever. Although seemingly impossible to comprehend, this landmark jazz date made in 1960 was recorded in less than three days, during several marathon sessions that produced still more music that would later be issued on subsequent albums: Coltrane Plays the Blues, Coltrane\'s Sound, and Coltrane Legacy. My Favorite Things, the title tune, belongs to Richard Rodgers & Oscar Hammerstein II\'s play The Sound of Music. The original stage production of The Sound of Music opened on Broadway at the Lunt-Fontane Theatre on November 16, 1959. Prior to Coltrane\'s reading it had already been recorded in a jazz setting by Benny Goodman. Goodman\'s tentet album of the score from the Broadway musical would be recorded merely four days after the play\'s stage debut on November 20. Although nearly all of the show\'s compositions became popular tunes, My Favorite Things would also become a jazz standard. Goodman\'s recording was the first known jazz version of the tune, which would be interpreted later by many other jazzmen. However, its popularity in the jazz world can hardly be attributed to Benny Goodman, who wouldn\'t record the song again after making his album.
