Falco:

FALCO! Born Johann Hölzel, he was a classically trained child prodigy & graduated from the Vienna Conservatoire. After fronting a jazz rock band & later a punk band, called Drahdiwarbel, he put out his first solo album in 1982 called "Einzelhaft". Sporting the great hit for After the Fire (boo! hiss!), "Der Kommisar", he went on to do "Rock me Amadeus"! After 40 albums, he died in a car crash in the Dominican Republic :( Shake it up in Heaven Falco! -Mikki 11/01
