What terrible news.

LK is unquestionably a great gent, and this is a tremendous blow.

Over the last few years one noticed that there was less and less discussion from Golden Age fans on the boards. I didn't realise that would translate to sales figures too. Lukas, though in touch with the times, has always been a great advocate for Golden and Silver age recordings.

I'm hoping he has other plans. I always felt he had many other options, and I'm sure his labour of love cost him. And it's thankless in some quarters. He could have done many other things, and I'm sure he will. I hope it's not the last of his record producing days.
