bummer. RIP.

Oh wow. I had heard he announced had cancer. That was just recently too. Too bad.

Sorry to hear.

RIP

I’ve always like his music. Bought all his first 7-8 releases.
Know his videos. Know the lyrics. Saw him in concert.
He was a big part of the 80s for me - more so than other pop acts.
I remember reading a GnR book - Adler said he saw Money at a softball benefit thing....
He said his legs and arms had track marks galore.
I also heard Money was paralyzed - in his face - side of mouth.....
because he passed out for 10 hours, cutting off circulation ?
Anyways - I heard the news on the radio - not clearly - as his song played.
I immediately went to google. 70. Not bad. Was that Lemmy’s age too ?

Never heard he did drugs much but he talked about his heavy drinking a lot. Thanks for the tunes Eddie.

Eddie had a special connection to MLB Network, the channel I have on year round as I work from home.

Check this out (ignore the lack of sound in the commercial):

He actually did appear on the show about a year later.

My first concert ever was Eddie opening up for .38 Special. I've always enjoyed his music. Thanks for the memories and the music.

I heard about this on Friday. I knew he wasn't doing well. I'm just glad he didn't have to suffer much longer. Fuck cancer! "I Wanna Go Back" has always been a very sentimental song. I had a childhood friend who put together a photo montage/slide show for some senior project back in '88, with the music to this song as the backdrop.

R.I.P.
