Thank you for this heart felt tribute sir. I feel the same pain as you. I grew up listening to Eric and this may sound weird but I actually had a dream that I was at one of his concerts and the next morning after I woke up, I heard he passed. I've never dreamt about being at his concert before so it was almost like a premonition or something. I have been listening to his music non-stop since that day. There will never be another Eric Carmen.

It's is really good to know there are other people on the Planet that are as passionate and emotional about music and the artsists that make it as I am. "Go all the Way" is a very important song in my life. The opening riff blew my 12 yr old head clean off when I first heard it. It was on a compilation album called "Explosive Hits '73" in Australia. It's 10.30pm Tuesday night 12/03/2024 and I've just flicked the T.V. over to Ch 9 in Sydney. They were showing The Raspberries "Go all the Way" I thought "Why are they playing that?" "Is Eric touring soon?" Then I thought "Oh no he hasn't died" "Has he?" My fears were confirmed by the news voice over person. "Eric Carmen was 74" Now I can't stop crying. Not only did Eric help create one of the greatest, mind blowing Guitar riffs in Rock history, he then composed some of the most tasteful Ballads of all time. Good quality Ballads are extremely hard to write. Thanks for the great music and the brilliant singing voice Eric. Eric lived a successful existence and died peacefully in his sleep. "Come on Baby!!!" RIP - Eric Carmen

I've listened to ERIC CARMEN since 1970 with "The Raspberries." Then followed all his solo music. My Uncle worked at A&M RECORDS, Hollywood from 1967-1999.I got to see so much music history being made. My condolences to Amy Carmen, his kids Clayton & Kathryn Carmen and his brother, Fred Carmen.

Blue Oyster Cult frontman Eric Bloom, a big Raspberries fan, told a story very recently about both bands appearing on a random early concert bill, wherein the rowdy hard rocking B.O.C. fans gave The Raspberries no quarter, which in turn left Eric Bloom feeling mortified about the incident. He knew what a special, exciting band that they truly were, and deserved much more from the rabble.

Carmen's talents very underrated. The Raspberries were a great band. I put them along with The Sweet, and Badfinger as those great early 70's power pop bands that put out a ton of great tunes. Why are the Raspberries and these other bands not in the Rock Hall?? Eric's first solo album is classic as well. I have it on vinyl and finally ordered it on cd. Have you ever heard the song he put out in support of trying to get Cleveland the Rock Hall. The song is called "The Rock Stops Here!". Great rocker from Eric. I bought a few copies on 45 back then and still have them. Wish I could find this track on cd. Anyway, great tribute Matt!

All By Myself was my favorite from Eric Carmen. I was more into Eric’s solo career than him with the Rasberries

You know I just realized that go all the way was released about the same time that Donny Osmond released Go away Little girl. I guess both sides of the issues had to be heard.

I had no idea he was gone - I just this moment posted a joke about how he was to Rachmaninoff as George Harrison was to the Chiffons

@@matthewstreet1961 I loved All By Myself when I heard that, then years later I heard the Second Piano Concerto and did a double-take. I just had to laugh - go back and make sure I wasn't stoned and hearing it incorrectly. I think Carmen nicked it off #2 for Never Gonna Fall in Love Again, too.
