‘He lived exactly the life he wanted to live. And he spent his last days surrounded by those he loved the most. Pop, thank you.’ No cause of death was given for the revered music executive, who began his career as a member of the musical group The Ivy Three in the late 1950s.He went on to form an entertainment company called Koppelman/Rubin Associates, before Koppelman moved to CBS Records in the 1970s, where he signed artists including Billy Joel and Journey as the vice president and national director of A&R.
