Clearaudio Concept Active Wood

My friend Courtney Grant Winston has led a storied life. A photographer by trade, Courtney has a gift for revealing his subjects’ spirited personalities. He has photographed actor Morgan Freeman, Le Bernardin coowner Maguy Le Coze, and celebrity chefs Jean-Georges Vongerichten, Alain Ducasse, and Anthony Bourdain. Courtney took the iconic cover photo for his 2000 breakout biography, Kitchen Confidential.

Courtney’s father was a Tuskegee Airman during World War II and a childhood friend of Billie Holiday. The voice of Courtney’s mother, Dorothy, can be heard in Billie, the recent documentary, speaking about the celebrated jazz singer’s final days.

The Moody Blues could very easily have been one of those sidelined, notched-cover footnotes, but they altered their gameplan when guitarist/vocalist Justin Hayward and bassist/vocalist John Lodge joined the fold a few years after the chart success of “Go Now” in 1964.¹
