Oh, I certainly agree with you. I just don't like tenors singing baritone parts, no matter how old they are. It just ain't right. Placido still sounds like a tenor without the top.
He does have an amazing memory, tho', for music as well as events. I have a friend who sang at the Met for years and said Placido was always coming up to him and telling him about some small thing that happened years ago between them (maybe at City Opera) and my friend had pretty much no idea what he was talking about.
