ajf67 Posted April 27, 2005 Report Share Posted April 27, 2005 (edited) I finally got things working. So, as promised, I can now share a photo of the Coltrane Down Beat award for "A Love Supreme" that I won at the recent jazz auction in New York. I assure you all it has found a loving home. It's behind glass, so the photo isn't great, butit's about as good as I can get it with my fairly cheap camera.

It's behind glass, so the photo isn't great, butit's about as good as I can get it with my fairly cheap camera. Beatiful trhing you bought!! I bought 2 of Trane's music manuscripts, a deed to his house in Philadelphia, and a tux that Dexter Gordon wore for the Oscars ceremony in 1986[?] when he was nominated for his role in Round Midnight. One day I'm planning to donate this stuff to the Smithsonian. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This museum has a room devoted to items like that, including a letter from John Coltrane, Ornette Coleman's early music book, Benny Goodman's hat and appointment book, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JSngry Posted August 7, 2006 Report Share Posted August 7, 2006 THATS a downbeat award? thats what all the hullaballoo's been about for all those years?!?!? Well, as Miles once noted, it is really fine wood. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, as Miles once noted, it is really fine wood. By the '70s they stopped sending them out unless requested. Then they turned out to be made of particle board.
