Hagiography in lede
"Pearson is considered the most influential figure in the history of audiophile journalism.[1]"

The footnote is to an obituary written in his own magazine, by a friend and co-worker/employee. I think that is pushing it in terms of sourcing, especially when there are other competing figures (J. Gordon Holt, for example).

I think it should be removed, or at the very least, rephrased in a less superlative manner. Huw Powell (talk) 02:27, 4 January 2017 (UTC)
