Many of you have been asking for missing Rock Candy remastered & reloaded reissues to complete collections, and here’s as requested EDDIE MONEY‘s 2nd album “Life For The Taking“, perhaps the most complete LP in the singer’s career.
Recorded with a clever ‘if it’s not broken, don’t fix it’ approach and sticking to what he knew best, for “Life For The Taking” Eddie reconvened the same team who worked on his debut album. The results were equally as magical, Eddie’s identifiably gritty voice sitting atop a fine collection of songs that mixed r ‘n’ b with rock very much in the same style as his debut album.
Issued in early 1979, the album consolidated the success of his debut, lodging itself in the top 20 of the US album charts. It also contained material that would provide more introspective lyrical content such ‘You Can’t Keep A Good Man Down’ and the magnificent title track, a brooding epic inspired by his childhood experiences in Brooklyn.

Many of you have been asking for missing Rock Candy reissues to complete collections, and here’s as requested their remastered version of  EDDIE MONEY‘s “No Control“, one of his best albums from the Eighties with that wonderful 1982’s US Melodic Rock / AOR sound.
MONEY’s life was turned upside down by the runaway success of his self-titled debut album.

Rock Candy specialists reissued / remastered all EDDIE MONEY early albums, and 1983’s “Where’s The Party?” is one of the singer’s most sounding AOR records.
When “Where’s The Party?” was released, Eddie Money was a hugely successful and famous artist with a string of hit singles and platinum albums to his name. Eddie’s raspy tones and his penchant for earthy blue collar rock had served him well, yet his lust for living life to the full had, before the release of his last album, taken a turn for the worse when ill-health nearly ruined his good fortune.
Luckily, Eddie continued to recover from this health set back and commenced the recording his fifth album “Where’s The Party?”, an album largely produced, as was his previous platinum smash ‘No Control’, by veteran studio wizard Tom Dowd (Kenny Loggins, Chicago) in Los Angeles.
Surrounded by a number of top sessions players including guitarist Steve Farris (Mr. Mister), great..

“Can’t Hold Back” is by far, our favorite Eddie Money album from the ’80s.
You can say what you want about American rock in the ’80s, but it was mostly all about feeding FM radio with huge hit singles. That was something Eddie Money had plenty of experience of, having scored a not inconsiderable amount of bonafide hits and airplay since he started recording during the previous decade.
For Eddie, every move was calculated for maximum commercial impact, which more often than not meant wrapping his raspy voice around the best songs possible.
“Can’t Hold Back” was Eddie Money’s sixth album and the first to be produced by Richie Zito, a man with an impressive resume including crafting records by Cheap Trick, Heart, Bad English…
