Davey Jones' Locker 1,324 Posted April 3, 2016 Not sure how reliable the source is but reportedly Jean-Pierre Coffe, French TV and radio personality and Weight Watchers frontman, has died aged 78. https://translate.google.co.uk/translate?sl=auto&tl=en&js=y&prev=_t&hl=en&ie=UTF-8&u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.purepeople.com%2Farticle%2Fjean-pierre-coffe-est-mort_a177463%2F1&edit-text= He's on the DDP, so awaiting an obit. Just reading about him now: "... it was his heartfelt and usually comical rants against the growing impact of junk food on French eating habits that earned him a place in the hearts of many of the viewing public. “This is sh*t!”, an accusation levelled by Coffe at various sub-standard food products, became something of a catchphrase, while a slew of memorable television appearances caught the public’s attention – not least when hurling industrially produced charcuterie at a TV host in 1984 in one particularly passionate fit of culinary rage."

Ra Ra Rasputin 99 Posted April 11, 2016 a question for Germans and/or people who have info....what's the status of Heino, is he still vertical or did he cross over? Seems to be doing fine other than he also appears to have done a Pat Boone on us and (visually) turned a bit metal. Perhaps this is due to Ritchie Blackmore outing himself as a Schlager and Heino fan? Anyway, there are concert dates until September of this year listed on his website so it's probably safe to assume there's nothing wrong with him. Of course, we thought that about Lemmy... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I thought he's dead...saw some of my granddads records and he was all over the place and I declared him dead for no reason.....but he's 77 according to Wiki so....I know I'll regret this but he's obviously blind, judging by that look on his Home page Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
