Yeah, pretty sure that's it.
He wrote songs for other people first and then was successful performing his own, very poppy upbeat, but when his own material became brooding, he broke with his record company to feature it Apparently Shilo was the 'deal breaker', and he was very litigious about it, also described as 'arrogant' and 'brash' (wiki).
He also lost all feeling in his leg in 1979 and had to have a tumor removed. He said it had been happening for a few years but he just ignored it. (Consistent with Si PolR).
