Biography

In 1982, singer Taco released a synth-pop cover version of "Puttin' On the Ritz" as a single from his album After Eight, released on Polydor of Germany. The single was accompanied by a music video, the original version of which contains characters in blackface and has since been banned from many networks. An alternative version eliminates many shots of the blackface characters, though some remain. The cover also musically references other Irving Berlin songs, such as "There's No Business Like Show Business", "Alexander's Ragtime Band", and "White Christmas". The single was a global hit, reaching No. 1 on Cash Box as well as No. 4 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart, making Irving Berlin, then 95, the oldest ever living songwriter to have one of his compositions enter the top ten. It was certified Gold by the RIAA for selling over one million copies. It was Taco's only hit in the United States.This version of the song was ranked No. 53 in VH1's 100 Greatest One Hit Wonders of the 80s sp
