"Addicted to love", the video had an all girl band that has become kind
of iconic in pop culture. He also covered "Bang a Gong".
Sad.

That picture is from "Simply Irresistable", IIRC, not "Addicted to Love".
Edit: though I could well be wrong.... :?

damn, that's a shame. Another icon of 80's music and my childhood lost.

And that is too young. He was only a year younger than my dad...

Whats going wrong with music that they're all dropping like flies? Mr Cash was expected but Robert Palmer? I remember singing Addicted To Love to woo a former g/f.

Well under my new policy of not buying music where the creator is still alive or the band is still together. Mind you this leaves the vast majority of the good stuff still available.

still I am sorry to see him go...
