Show of hands?

I knew he was still alive; he released a new compilation of his greatest hits a couple of years ago.

Wow... I certainly didn't know that he was still alive... He was from before my time, but I have been listening to a lot of 40's music on a local radio station and on XM Radio, and have liked what I've heard of his stuff...

I did, Shaw's rendition of Moonglow is the best.

Moi. I plead guilty. I thought he was long gone.

Oh, I knew he was still around. A few months ago, I toyed with the idea of paying him an unexpected visit, just to watch him slam the door in my face. :-)

Only about 60 years ago!
