R.I.P. Eric Carmen

I loved The Raspberries! Sorry he's gone.

Yes, I hated to hear this. I'd watched a bit of a Midnight Special video not long ago with Carmen and he was really good. It was on Midnight Special and he was with The Raspberries.

I was grooving on the song "Hungry Eyes" after Dirty Dancing came out and it was a nice surprise to find out it was Carmen singing it. Below is a video of him with the Raspberries from 2007 and they're great! Godspeed, Eric.

Awww, I liked that song "All By Myself"

Re: R.I.P. Eric Carmen
 

Hungry Eyes is probably the quintessential Dirty Dancing song.

It's a fine song that I've known my entire life, but the lyrics have a lot more relevance today. The guitar sounded so George Harrison-like I had to look it up and saw it was John Lennon's lead guitarist, Hugh McCracken.


P.S. - I posted the full version, while most heard the single version. This song is almost 8 minutes long, but I prefer them uncut songs.

One of the best 80's tunes is credited to Eric Carmen.

This song is painfully nostalgic.
