In 1982 a singer named Taco Ockerse made an album "After Eight" with Puttin on the Ritz. Is Taco still alive?

I've seen the Puttin' on the Ritz musical video. It's very creepy to me. Yes, he is still alive and well. Though, he hasn't been seen much in media since the 80s. Here's a short biography on him: a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Taco_Ockerse" rel="nofollow"http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Taco_Ockers…/a
