Allmusic Biography:
Taco scored his one and only pop hit in 1982 with a faithful rendition of the Irving Berlin chestnut \"Puttin\' on the Ritz.\" Born Taco Ockerse in Jakarta, Indonesia on July 21, 1955, he recorded \"Ritz\" in Germany in 1981; a year later, the song (originally popularized by Fred Astaire) hit the upper reaches of the U.S. pop charts, accompanied by a video depicting the singer decked out in a bow-tie-and-tails ensemble emblematic of the Depression-era movie musicals his image strived to emulate. Taco\'s debut LP, After Eight, contained other recreations of 1930s hits, as well as original material in the same vein; however, the market for such stuff was clearly limited, and after a 1984 follow-up, Let\'s Face the Music, he disappeared from the charts for good.
