Alvin Stardust aka Shane Fenton dies aged 72 - RIP.
"Coo Ca Choo"
Saw him as a blond Shane many, many years ago at a local dance hall.
What's more, that rare breed, a 70s celeb not on Yewtree's books.
And this despite regularly showing young people his ring on TOTP.
Yes. He made it as a glam rock star with his tongue firmly in his cheek - and he still managed to sing!
He was married to the lovely Lisa Goddard if I remember rightly.
I have a single of his from when he was resurrected on Stiff, in the early 80s I think.
RIP.
I used to get him mixed up with Shakin' Stevens.

Guffaw, guffaw. 
He will be missed; great sense of humour. Does anyone recall his skit on Harry Hill where he dressed up as a giant bird and sang his signature ditty?
