Wikipedia description:
Steve Davis (March 14, 1929 – August 21, 1987) (also known by his Muslim name Luquaman Abdul Syeed) was an American jazz bassist best known for his time in the John Coltrane Quartet. From 1960 to 1961, Davis was briefly part of the John Coltrane Quartet before being temporarily replaced by Reggie Workman and permanently replaced by Jimmy Garrison. Davis recorded My Favorite Things (1961) with the quartet. He also recorded as a sideman with Chuck and Gap Mangione on Hey Baby! (1961), and with quartet fellow (and brother-in-law) McCoy Tyner on the 1963 album Nights of Ballads & Blues.
