Spade_Cooley 9,578 Posted January 24, 2019 The person who made the edit has never edited Wikipedia before, plus there's no change on the Spanish-language version. I'm gonna give this a thumbs down. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Squonk 24 Posted January 25, 2019 The good folk of the forum were right to be sceptical on this one - Jose Jose's wiki page has been amended to remove the reference to his death. Jose Jose is undead, long live Jose Jose (well, for anyone who doesn't have him in any of their lists). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sir Creep 7,070 Posted October 1, 2019 I need to give a proper sendoff to José Jose. I’ve now had at least three Sir Creep names that I have championed and/or discovered die in about 5 months. Jose Jose was first mentioned about three years ago for Team Gris Gris. I chose him as my (then) youngest team member because he had abdominal issues and had been a roaring drunk for years prior. Surmised it might catch up with him. And a few short years later, at only 71, it has. RIP to MY Jose Jose. SirC Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sir Creep 7,070 Posted October 1, 2019 I see no one started a ‘Biggest Misses by the Committee, 2019’ thread. Jose Jose would be at the absolute TOP of the list. Just goes to show how narrow DL is. Dude was only the biggest selling pop artist in the history of Mexico....with probable stage 4 pancreatic C (as of Jan 1 when the 2019 list posted). How you leave Jose Jose off of DL I don’t fucking know. For Tina Turner I guess SC Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm not certain how many times it's been re-iterated that DL started in the UK and it is still a UK committee (afaik, I'm not privy to such information) but it's more than a few. Why do these folk who are not famous at all in the UK keep getting tagged as (enter hyperbole of choice) misses? Rant done. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
msc 18,512 Posted October 1, 2019 Latin American doesn't really permeate UK music that often. The better US/Mexico analogy here is the UK/France, and look how often French folk wind up on the DL... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
