I heard he had stage four cancer. Sadly it was news I was expecting to hear at some point soon but certainly didn't want to.

Aw man .....

His music was part of the soundtrack of my high school years, and beyond.

Despite never having the smoothest voice, he was an incredible performer. I saw him in concert a few times, and he always put on s great show.

RIP Eddie. Thanks for the memories, and the music. I pray that God will comfort your family and friends.

Very sad news. He had so many great songs - my favorite was a song called "Trinidad" ...





Rest in peace, Eddie.

Yeah, I have a buddy (48) that has stage IV of the pancreas and liver. I hear he's doing well, but stage IV is stage IV. I don't want a text message from his brother in a few months (unless it's to say he's cured).

To honor Eddie, I'll add a few of his songs to my in home playlist today.

Oh yeah, cancer sucks.

I was gonna mention Shakin', which in my opinion is one bad-ass rock tune. That's when I discovered Eddie Money.

RIP, Mr. Money.

Not the best voice or best songs, but the dude was extremely likeable and full of energy. Somehow, he could make you stomp your foot and put a smile on your face w/his upbeat style.

I am having to accept that I am at an age where many of my contemporaries are passing away and my own mortality is becoming more and more of a thing.

Right! That is haunting bro, on one hand I'm cognizant that it's just a fact of life. On the other, I feel like lending it any credence helps seal my own fate! It's a weird place.

He also had many songs that never hit mainstream radio but were simply great songs of that era. His "No Control" album is outstanding.

I liked Eddie’s voice. There’s a certain rawness to it I always appreciated. I never really dove into his catalog of music. Today I heard a song in the background of a podcast and came home and looked it up. I’d never heard it before but I really dig it. Four chords done well.
