Fairly long life for the man to have lived, given the high-pressure clients he had and the lifestyle that both he and they lived. But, again, it's one of the classic breed of recording industry figures that has left the scene.

"I think honesty is of the first, utmost importance in art... any art. After that comes technique and... after that comes talent. Honesty is first. All the rest of the things are important, too, but they're secondary. Without honesty, I don't care how much technique you have, you have nothing."--Linda Ronstadt
