Dear friends,
It was with a heavy heart I uploaded this interview I had a few months ago with the one and only Alain DeCadenet.
Alain passed away surrounded by the two people that loved him the most in early July this year, and to be honest, the world is a lesser place for his passing.
So who was Alain DeCadenet? I guess if you know you know - but if you don’t, well I hope this will give you even a small insight into the wonderful life of this great man.
Imagine a mix of James Bond, Austin Powers and Chuck Yaeger and you almost get who Alain was! He was a swashbuckler of a man that really lived a life and experienced more than most of us can ever dream of.
From being a photographer in London to racing his own car at the Le mans 24 hours he did it all. Also known as one of the most informative and entertaining figures on the classic and vintage car scene, he had a memory for detail that defied belief, and many a tale that will have you crying as you laugh.
Alain was Totally inappropriate but delightfully refreshing and lit up every room he ever walked into.
There is that saying that we die twice. Once when we take our last breath and again when our name is said for the last time on earth.
Well in that case, Alain will live on forever, as we will never stop talking about him!
JB
