DIX HILLS, N.Y. (AP) In a quiet, tree-lined suburb of New York City sits an unassuming brick ranch house that many musicians consider hallowed ground. This is where saxophonist John Coltrane composed the epic 1964 jazz masterpiece "A Love Supreme," shortly after moving into the Dix Hills, Long Island, home. Although he only lived there three years Coltrane died of cancer in 1967 at age 40 musicians including Carlos Santana and Coltrane's jazz saxophonist son Ravi are among those backing a volunteer effort to turn the dilapidated, four-bedroom house into a museum and learning center. http://news.yahoo.com/fans-hope-john-coltrane-home-become-ny-museum-142721149.html

Friday- The Gary Bartz Quartet at Smoke, NYC.

Wow, so much music I don't know. Great BFT.

Well once again I am stumped on all but #2. Jimmy Heath is on tenor. I have this recording but I haven't guessed which one yet. I like the entire disc. Now I will go to the answers.

RIP Frank. Thank you for all the music. He had a long productive life. I'm glad I got to see him live several times. Frank and band from 2011. Here's the band that night at Dizzy's Club Coca Cola. November 2, 2011 . Frank Wess- ts, Michael Weiss- p, Greg Gisbert- tp, Noriko Ueda- b, Winard Harper- d.

Age is catching up with me. I forgot I did. I need some Ginkgo Biloba.

A few days late, but better late then never. This is from last night show at the Blue Note.

The Jimmy Heath Big Band. Too bad it is at the Blue Note. The world's worst jazz club.

Happy Birthday, Guy.

RIP Lou

Shehad a nice voice. RIP Gloria.

I have a few that I just can't seem to get into but so many others, including many here really enjoy. 1. Wayne Shorter. He is a find musician, but I don't really dig his music. I tried. I even caught his 80th birthday show at Lincoln Center, but I left wanted more. 2. Oscar Peterson. He plays too many notes for my ears. I know he's played with just about every legendary jazz musician, but I don't care for his style. Anyone else have any musicians that are highly esteemed in the eyes on many but you don't understand why?

I realized that most of the time when I am listening to music at home I do it with my eyes shut. I guess turning off one sense adds to my ears. Does anyone else find themselves listeninf with your eyes closed?

I second the Happy Birthday to Jimmy Heath.

dl please

RIP Donald.

Thanks. I didn't know this.

Sounds like an Oxymoron, but is there such an animal? I was for some reason scanning AM stations in my car and one you are listening to WXXX in stereo on the AM dial. I thought AM was just mono?

Wes Montgomery's Somkin' At the Half Note

Have a great day.

If you hold the disc up to a light source, you can see through the disc to the light.

Another loss. I liked Butch's playing. RIP Mr. Warren. Thanks for all the music.

The two sessions with Baby Face Willette are great recordings.
