John COLTRANE is in FRANCE (as in several countries) considered as an Icon.

In each jazz national conservatory you can find people that are in jazz because of John COLTRANE.

Religious commitment in Jazz, etc.... everybody knows that.

So now, as perhaps jazz is the best cultural thing that happened to the USA in the 20^th century, please: keep some histories, keep some prints, even build some museums just in case you could not remember things correctly.

Destroying the house of John COLTRANE, could be a starting point to disremembering.

So please don’t blow this house down, just let it shine, as one of the jazz beacon

That are my impressions

Stéphane (FRANCE)

Hope you manage to save it!

I'm kinda taken aback hearing how little concern is given to the home of John Coletrane, a place that I personally would like to visit if stateside. John Coletrane belongs in the absolute first order of artists in what has been called the only artform truly created in USA, and I think it's sad to see history ignored. The same can be said for the whole artform, so much is destroyed, or developed as entrepreneurial individuals would call it, such as i.e. 52'nd Street NYC. Could anyone imagne La Scala being torn down in order to make room for officebuildings?

Sincerely,
