This biography is too gushing -- to the point of embarrassment. Also, too long. (Much as I like his music.) PedEye1 03:59, 24 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Tone down of hagiography

The biography is now shorter and much less hagiographic than before. The previous version read like a besotted fan-page entry, where "embarassing" was being kind to it. In addition, I have added references and have thus removed the tag. DJRafe (talk) 04:12, 8 April 2008 (UTC)

In addition, it turns out that much of the overflowery past version was more-or-less plagarised from the Adrian Hamilton 2005 article, without citation. DJRafe (talk) 01:58, 9 April 2008 (UTC)
