Easily the greatest singer I have ever heard live (Birgit Nilsson was a close second), and he should have stopped about 7 years ago. It is a terrible shame. A dark voice says that he probably has to pay alimony; but realistically, he is simply one of the greatest hambones as well, and I guess he just loves being adored. I am sure he will be playing a Holiday Inn somewhere into his 90's, just for the last whiff of it.
