Many of his records failed to gain a prominent following, but he was very successful until poor health cut short his touring. I'm not sure what that means - it seems contradictory, and it doesn't make sense that records have a following. If he didn't have a following, in what way was he successful?

His most famous songs - as a composer or performer? I interpreted that at first to be as composer, but was surprised that he wrote "How High the Moon", and verified it wasn't true here: http://www.jazzstandards.com/compositions-0/howhighthemoon.htm (unless it is a different song by the same name) so I think it could be reworded.
