Delete: fails WP:GNG and WP:CREATIVE. Not a single mention in any issue of Billboard magazine or any other reliable source. The two keep votes in the previous AfD were both from SPA accounts editing articles related to Mr. Battiloro, and this article was recreated two months after deletion by another SPA account... I suspect some promotional efforts by people closely connected to Mr. Battiloro. Richard3120 (talk) 16:12, 28 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Comment: Most of the article text is effectively the same as that at IMDb where it is attributed to one "N. Carey". AllyD (talk) 17:39, 29 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Delete: Considering the listed portions of the subject's career in turn: (1) While a few discographical sites do name-check the subject as an engineer on some jazz recordings, I am seeing no indication of WP:CREATIVE notability; (2) Similar for his job at Nabisco; (3) The article makes award claims for the "Wes's Way" film but I am seeing little beyond notes that "The film was distributed to high school health classes and focused on the importance of exercise and nutrition.", insufficient for WP:FILMMAKER; (4) His involvement in the re-release of the Rolling Stones film or a "Put Them Back Together" song don't appear inherently WP:CREATIVE notable; (5) his business at theconsultanc.com does not appear notable either. Neither individually or together do these seem sufficient to demonstrate notability and overturn the previous AfD consensus. AllyD (talk) 17:39, 29 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hardly "too soon"... he's been in the record business since 1973. Richard3120 (talk) 00:44, 1 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
