I like this group!
Herbie might be cool in it too, but, yeah, you gotta give it to Bud.
I also dig Freddie as much as Miles really...Django would be good (if Art Tatum was on piano), but Charlie Christian is better for this group, yeah...although maybe Wes Montgomery, Joe Pass, or even George Benson might be nice as a fantasy too.
On drums, Art Blakey is a great choice, but Elvin, Dannie, or Philly Jo might work too.
Excuse me, while I riff on yr list...I've got too many members (12-piece hehe) & two leaders haha...
John Coltrane - Tenor Sax/Soprano Sax/Co-Leader
Charlie Parker - Alto sax
Warne Marsh - Tenor sax
Eric Dolphy - Flute/Bass Clarinet
Bud Powell - Piano
Freddie Hubbard, Miles Davis - Trumpets
Joe Pass, George Benson - Guitars
Charles Mingus - Bass/Co-Leader
Tony Williams - Drums
Dannie Richmond - additional percussion
