Thanks a lot for adding me as your friend.
I am a friend of Jimmy Heath, Benny Golson, Bobby Watson and others who came to my Coltrane House of Osaka, Japan for dinner and seeing my Coltrane memorabilia.
I enjoy your interview with them so much.
Keep in touch and I look forward to seeing you personally in my next trip to DC. My last visit to DC was in September 2009 for my lecture at UDC.

John Coltrane's photo (sitting and holding flute and saxophone) you attached was taken by Charles Stewart at his photo studio around 4 am (meditation time) on May 30, 1966.
