Not going for irony here, but...

All things considered it's mildly surprising he made it this long.

I just found out about this.
I have "Catholic Boy." Wonderful record. "People Who Died" is the song everyone knows, but for me, "City Drops into the Night" is the superior song. They used to play tunes over the PA at lunch in my high school cafeteria, and someone cool used to play that song. That's how I found the song and the artist and the album.
RIP.
