>make a wild suggestion

It's not so wild. Today, it can finally be revealed that Mark Felt was actually the source of nearly all of the extant Coltrane bootleg recordings.

Some of you might want to know about a "salute" to Paul Robeson that the Freedomways review held on April 22, 1965 in New York City. According to Martin Bauml Duberman's biography of Robeson (p. 528), Coltrane was one of the people who "did offer" to "sponsor" this event. (For some reason, Coltrane's name does not appear in the index of Duberman's book). The New York Amsterdam News on April 17, 1965 (p. 10) also noted that Coltrane was a sponsor. (There is no mention of Coltrane in the description of the event that appeared in the New York Amsterdam News on May 1, 1965 (pp. 1-2).)
