“Coltrane broke into the opening phrase of his anthem, ‘My Favorite Things’… I could actually feel the room lift… Within a couple of minutes, the sonic tumult had taken over again, and one could feel, even more intensely, the mood of the room dropping.” Coltrane in Detroit, June 1966:

Very sad to learn of the passing of artist David Hockney. I've been meaning for a while to post a thread on him & his beloved dachshunds, Stanley and Boodgie, who inspired his 1995 series "Dog Days," so I guess here it is (thread)
