Not if he were in his original glass sarcophogus, Caruso was on full view for several years (and apparently embalmed very well and looked good, as good as can be for a dead guy) Similarly, when Douglas Fairbanks Jr was interred at Hollywood Forever, he's in the Fairbanks crypt with his Dad, Doug Sr. A friend of mine worked for HF then and was there when they opened the crypt/sarcaphogus and the examined Doug Sr. and he looks as if they just planted him (he died in 1939, btw). Yet another piece of weird and useless trivia lurking in my brain.
Now, back to Pavarotti, an excellent assesment of him can be
