nnaavvaall, are you referring to a dj premium or an item you "won" during the fund drive? A premium should be listed in a donation confirmation email from wfmu. if not listed in the email, your choice was not received.

An odd Coltrane tribute: Jukka Tolonen's album Cool Train from 2005, released just a couple years before he got in trouble with the law for violently assaulting his girlfriend.
  7:34pm
Dean:

Or does "tribute" imply works about Coltrane, rather than covers of works for which he was known?

Here's William Matthew's poetic tribute:

Blues for John Coltrane, Dead at 41

Although my house floats on a lawn
as plush as a starlet’s body
and my sons sleep easily,
I think of death’s salmon breath
leaping back up the saxophone
with its wet kiss.

Hearing him dead,
I feel it in my feet
as if the house were rocked
by waves from a soundless speedboat
planing by, full throttle.

His son prepared an edition of collected poems. I'm a fan, though he was a bit of a "lady's man." His verse is funny and poignant.
