Yes - i liked him as Alvin Stardust .
Did his own thing with the glove.
Will remain a legend in his own right .
That info above about the original Shane Fenton
Was very interesting - and i doubt known to many.

Basically, except he did not sing My Coo-Ca-Choo on the record: that was the songwriter Peter Shelley (Love Me, Love My Dog).

It's funny how you see people at a point in time. I always associated Alvin Stardust with Gary Glitter in the 70s.

Shows how wrong you can be. Alvin seems to have been a nice guy.

He seemed like a very nice guy. I liked this ballad of his. Alvin Stardust - I Feel Like Buddy Holly. Top Of The Pops 1984.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O8cCQ-dhYhE
