John Coltrane’s Dix Hills home to become museum



The Dix Hills home where saxophonist John Coltrane composed his monumental “A Love Supreme” album was later abandoned, occupied by raccoons and destined for destruction.

But the rundown ranch-style home on Candlewood Path, where Coltrane lived from 1964 until his death three years later, was spared the bulldozer – and is now being restored as a museum and shrine to the jazz icon.
