Went to see Eddie Money with a group of friends in Florida years ago. We were hungry and ended up at a grocery store about midnight and were stunned to see Eddie behind us in line. In classic fashion, he stuck his hand out and said, “Eddie Money. Rock star.” Classic. Seemed like a super nice, normal guy. Rest in peace.
I had the opportunity to meet Eddie at a meet and greet in the mid 90’s and told him how his music saved my life. I was experiencing panic attacks and depression from a volatile relationship and just knowing somebody like him existed soothed my soul- it was a recording I had made of some live show in the tropics- it was soo beautiful and inspiring. As I walked away he stood up and yelled “I love you!l 😆💜 he really was as genuine as his music💜
My Dad died two days after my 15th birthday in 1973. Never got to really share a lot of music with him. I would love to sit down with him and talk about so many things, music included. Thanks for sharing this wonderful interview Adam. Eddie made such good music. My wife and I loved all his songs. Lost her in 2021. Now music is a two edged sword. Lots of memories but they can be very bittersweet. R.I.P. Dad, Rhonda and Eddie Money. Wish all of you could “Take me home tonight.”
Back in 2011~12 my daughter’s elementary school music teacher invited LI area rock legends to appear for their Spring 2012 school concert. Invites went out to Billy Joel, Pat Benatar, Brian Setzer and Eddie Money. Out of all of them, Eddie was the ONLY one to respond and ACCEPT that invitation. (He lived for a time in Levittown btw) Keep in mind that this was way before his popular resurgence courtesy of his 2018~19 reality TV show ‘Real Money’ and he graciously took the time to visit the school and perform a rousing rendition of TTTP with the students for the faculty and families. I still have video of that evening’s performance as well as pics taken with him and my daughter. Truly a stand up guy. Thank You and Rest In Power Eddie..
Saw him at the Wichita Riverfest. Put on an amazing set and afterwards announced to the crowd he'd be hanging out on the side of the stage for any fans who wanted to come up and say hello. Super nice and very humble. Appreciated his fans.
I LOVEd him!! His song 'Shakin' brings back fond memories of my Senior year in high school. It was playing on the radio on the way to school one morning and everyone walking in the halls and thru the doors was singing that song. Really cool moment and memory. I wished I could thank him for all the great memories involving his songs. He is truly missed.
Eddie Money was a musical genius! He spoke so many truths in his songs. I used (parodied sorta) 2 Tickets to ask a girl out. She wasn't a real popular girl but she had my attention in Jr. High school and High School but I never got up the nerve to ask her out. It was a couple years after graduation that I ran into her in the mall and asked her for her number so I could ask her out. I went home and tried to find an unrefusable request for a date. Listening to the radio 2 Tickets To Paradise came on. The Weird All came out all of a sudden and I blurted out "I've got 2 tickets to Cedar Point". That's a very popular and large amusement park in Sandusky Ohio. I had access to tickets locally. So I sat down and started scribbling lyrics. I knew she would laugh, but would it impress her enough to accept? I called her up and started singing (sort of) and when she started giggling I knew it was yes. We set it up for the next Saturday morning to go on our date. It was all day just the 2 of us in a packed amusement park. We had a good day, but evidently not good enough because she let me know when I drove her home and walked her to her door, that there wouldn't be another date. That's okay, Jill. I still remember our "2 Tickets to Cedar Point" when I here Eddie sing his song.
Rest in peace to the late Eddie Money. He had so many great songs, it's overwhelming! Such a cool thing to be shown, an interview with him, it's a time capsule!
Eddie Money is truly a great guy. A Brooklyn guy who became a California rock star. Love it. 2 Tickets to Paradise is what we get with you every day, Professor. Thanks for this.
I saw Eddie twice in one year back in the mid nineties. Great performances. At the greet, and meet after the second one my wife mentioned to him that I was a state trooper. He seemed to get excited, and thanked me for being a cop. He seemed very sincere. Great guy.
I had a chance to meet the Money Man when he played a theater-sized venue in the small town I lived in. My best friend was stage crew and got me in. He and the band and I ended up hanging out talk7ng like musicians do. The band invited me back to the hotel to party after. Eddie was one of the nicest, funniest, most genuine musicians I've ever met. He was just a regular shmoe who happened to be an international rock star, but was not any better than anyone else.
I had the pleasure of actually meet Eddie Money once at a USO concert while I was in the Navy. It was a small audience and you couldn't tell because he rocked it as if it was a full auditorium. After the concert he stayed to mingle with us sailors and sign autographs. He was amazing. I always thought about he took a lot of time making all of us feel loved and appreciated. When I say small crowd I'm talking about a dining room at an on base all hands club. Probably around 100+/- audience. He didn't seem bothered and gave a real performance. So humble.
Adam….THIS was your best interview. It has personal connections between you and your dad and Eddie….Eddie’s stories on how he met other people in the business…how he became a singer… IMHO your best interview. May your dad see this from heaven and smile! God bless. :)
RIP Eddie. I’m so glad you got to interview Eddie. What a great interview. And the fact he said to you to thank your father for turning you on to his music. It don’t get no better than that. Music is magical. ❤️💜💚
Adam, you bring out the best of the artists, in all your interviews. I was fortunate to have seen Eddie in Austin, Texas. What a fantastic show! He's really, a wonderful man... He's sorely missed. RIP 🙏 EDDIE You won't be, Forgotten! GOD BLESS 👍👍❤️😊 george 😎🤿🦈🐙🇺🇲 TEXAS
You pull some of the best interviews out of these artists because of your deep respect for the musicians who create these masterpieces. And your love and respect for the man who introduced you to the art . . . your father. Good job, Mr. Reader!
My uncle's band played this song in the 90's, and one day I sat in on their practice with my keyboard. They loved my keyboard playing, and the fact that I could play all of these 70's songs by ear. They sounded AMAZING in the chorus for "Two Tickets To Paradise." I can still hear it in my mind to this day.
@@xxlilly_playsxxkiz9980 The song that was the most fun for me was "Swingtown" by Steve Miller Band. I played those cool keyboard notes, and kept changing sounds like they do in the actual song.
Saw him a couple years before his death. He was a natural with the crowd, had everyone dancing and singing, and played his saxophone too. We lost a legendary performer.
One of the most underrated vocalists/artists of the late 70’s and early 80’s in my opinion. It wasn’t until that big 1986 hit “Take Me Home Tonight” that people actually heard or knew of his music which is sad.
I love the stories about your father that you share with us. My best music memory I have with my father was a discussion about a Hollies song in the 1960s, Long Cool Woman (in a black dress). Lead singer Allan Clarke, who was also a cowriter, had a great voice. My Dad, an older guy born in 1916, told me that he didn't understand why anyone with such a good voice would want to sing that kind of stuff. I always remind myself that his idea of a rollicking tune was Mack the Knife! Thanks, Professor!
My very first Eddie Money song was “Shakin’”. I saw the video on MTV during the summer when I was 15, and became an instant fan. “Two Tickets To Paradise” is my favorite of his songs, but I can’t help loving “Take Me Home Tonight”, too. I actually knew who Ronnie Spector was and thought it was so cool that they did that song together. Thank you for this segment. Eddie was one of the greats, for sure.❤❤
What a cool guy,, just really personable and humorous and I know you realize how fortunate and frankly,, historic in an artistic sense to get such an offhand and perfect interview with a guy who IS classic rock,, hats off again Professor,, you NAILED it...
I saw him on his very last tour. He stayed after the show and gave out autographs. I met him and thanked him for his music. Shakin' was always my favorite.
Eddie Money was one of kind. He was such an authentic, kind and interesting man. Anytime I get to hear an interview with him I never pass up the opportunity.
For those in the Metro Detroit area, Eddie Money and Pine Knob went hand in hand. Every year, he was the concert that kicked off the summer concert series. Every year, we would proudly purchase those tickets and attend. Eddie Money was the start of summer, and the start of summer music. I always looked forward to that show, even if i was a little too young for the audience. :) RIP Moneyman.
After watching the professor of rock’s videos for a while, I’ve come to the conclusion that he is truly the heir apparent to Casey Kasem. Thoroughly knowledgeable with the facts, respectful interviews, and always great backstories. A true tribute to the master!
Eddie money was like Tom petty ; the backbone of rock n roll but rarely mentioned up there with the greats even though they were great in their own right! I remember singing “ I got 2 chickens a bag of rice, won’t you grab some eggs we’ll eat toniiiiiight” lol great times!
Eddie Money was a good ol' Rock & Roller. Saw him many times in the late '70's & '80's. Went to one of his last concerts in Arizona before he died & he was still rockin'.
I only saw him 3 times. I snuck into his "Two Tickets To Paradise" tour when I was 10. I then saw him in 1982 and lastly in 1986 or 87. All great concerts! Gone way too soon!
I lived next to a horse racing track in Upstate NY for 34 years. In the late 90's that track hosted Fireworks Over Central NY for a local radio station (TK99). Eddie Money loved playing that gig so much he did it for almost 10 years in a row. Every year I'd sit in my backyard and have a free Eddie Money concert with my family... That's a special memory...
Michigan here, best memory I have of Eddie Money is when he was playing Two Tickets to Paradise in 1982. He was an opening for The Who and I jumped the wall to get down to the main floor during the song. I will always cherish that memory as one of my formative moment in my teenage youth.
Great interview. I saw Eddie 5 or 6 times. 4 times in front of a large crowd. Once in front of a huge crowd. 1 time, and the most memorable, was in front of maybe 35 people at a casino in the middle of nowhere in Oklahoma. My wife and I looked to be the only people that even knew who he was. He put in the same fantastic show for us and a few others that he’d put on in front of 5000 people. At the end of the show he told the “crowd” - “Tell everyone what a good show they missed!” We bought some Tshirts, Eddie and his daughter - a good singer herself btw - signed them and we talked awhile. One of my fav entertainers ever - a class act.
These interviews are the best and this one with Eddie is simply magical. Adam takes pop music history to another level, proving with every interview that he loves the music as much, if not more, than the musicians themselves. Only someone with Adam's genuine love for the subject would be able to get Eddie's eyes light up like they did when he learned about how his music tangentially led to Chris Pratt and Anna Faris meeting. That's a rare gift. I would love to see a feature at some point on Bill Graham. The impact that one man had on our culture is almost impossible to fully appreciate, but if there is someone who could, it is our humble professor.
I came to L.A. from Boston to visit my sister and she and her boyfriend both worked for Eddie's record label. After a fantastic dinner party honoring Jonny Mathis, they took me to a studio where Eddie was recording an album. It was great to meet him. Such gentleman. It was quite an evening for me, a greenhorn from Massachusetts. That was when L.A. was still an exciting and fun place. The 80s! Miss them along with the 60s and 70s.
Classy dude, so glad I got to see him in concert when I was younger. His music sounded as good live as it did on cassette! Real whaler, and awesome singer.Rip Eddie.
I used to work backstage security for concerts years ago.I recognized him as he walked towards me,I said "hey Eddie Money!"He came over and gave me a hug. I was a fan of his music, but just then I became a fan of him personally.
I got to see Eddie Money at a race track about 10 years ago. It was a free concert and "I think I'm in love" is one of my all time favorites, so why not? His voice was a little rough for the first couple of songs until he warmed up, but just amazing from then on. This was also a great reminder of how many hits he had put out. I could only remember a few walking in, but counted at least 13 by the time it was done. Great time.
I watch your channel all the time. I usually don't comment but this episode really moved me. This is kind of a long story. In the summer of 2007 my son was 15, on a spur of the moment we decided to go downtown to see Eddie Money. This started a regular occurrence and until Eddie passed away, we saw him open the summer concert at Pine Knob. We miss only one or two shows in those years and that was due to in 2015 I was diagnosed with MS. That was the start of my son's love of music. I have even taken my step kids and grandkids to see Eddie. Thank you for your channel, music is sometimes the only thing that heals the mind, body and soul.
Funny, I got stuck in an elevator with him at the Venetian hotel for two hours. He told me he was a New York Policeman. I said “man you’re a dead ringer for Jon Von Jovi” he laughed and said you don’t know how many times I’ve heard that. Just a down to earth great guy.
I loved Eddie Money! When "Two tickets to paradise" came on the radio for the first time, my dad and I were driving to Seattle to Tower Records to buy the album! My dad and I just looked at each other, and started jamming out to it! It was a great daddy-daughter outing. I miss Eddie and I miss my dad. But every time I hear Eddie Money on the classic rock station, I smile and remember that day with my dad. Love it! Thanks for showing that interview with the late great Eddie Money!!!!
Just coming across this video a year later! I got to see Eddie perform at a free concert in Omaha about 8-9 years ago opening for Joan Jett, and his entire band was comprised of his kids and their friends. They rocked it. He was so awesome, and gracious to the people in the park. The last thing he said as they closed their set was "I dont do this for me; I do it for you! Thank you so much for having me!" The man has very obviously been humbled and gracious for his legacy over the years and appreciated his fans. I hear all sorts of stories about how nice and friendly he was. He is definitely missed. Thanks, Prof.
This one really hit the feels button, Adam. Easy to see that you had such a wonderful relationship with your dad. Cherish that forever. Great interview.
Probably one of the most underrated singer/songwriter/musician, he could do it all! I really enjoyed this interview with a down to earth person! I especially like how he deferred or referred to the names you threw out or he brought up in such a positive and loving(reverentail)tone. RIP Eddie, you were one of the greatest!
I saw Eddie play at the Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk many years ago. He said, "I wrote this next song 3 rehabs ago." So funny. "I Wanna Go Back" is the greatest story of my life. May God bless you Eddie Money. I grew up playing songs from you. Hope to meet you in the next life.
I fell in love with him when his first album came out. I saw him so many times when he would come to Florida. I have pictures and two autographed concert T-shirt as well. I have them in ziplock bags, I never wore them. The last time I saw him I asked him if I could give him a kiss on his cheek! He said yes and that made the concert even better that night! He will always have a place in my heart.❤❤❤ 1:52 RIP Eddie.
Eddie Money and Heart appeared together at Fort Bragg in an unbilled concert for the troops in the early 80’s. I saw them there. It was magnificent. I feel fortunate to have grown up in the golden age of rock and roll. Thanks for taking me back there, Professor!
Saw Eddie Money live several times, always a great show. Jimmy Lyon is still one of my all time favorite guitar players, just great. One thing that stuck out in my mind the last time seeing him live was just how many great songs he had. Got to meet him as well after a show and like everyone has sad, just a down to earth nice guy. Great and everlasting memories!!!!
Great interview with Eddie. My favorite of his is "I Wanna Go Back". Yes, his version is the best and you never get tired of listening to it. RIP, Eddie!
Thank you Adam… just listening to Eddie Money talk, with that DEEP Brooklyn accent that will NEVER go away, reminded me of MY dad. And the way you and your dad would play music trivia in the car (just like me and my dad)… you brought a happy year to my eye. We have a local DJ here in the Wash DC area, Don Geronimo, who was also a HUGE FAN of Eddie Money. It was his show that I fist heard She Was Shakin, MY favorite Money song…
It's very special to me too. Eddie and my dad were best friends in the the early years in the bay area. He was his stage, road manager, and my godfather! I have great memories of being part of the family and seeing his success during the late 70's early 80's. So much fun. Love how much he enjoyed sharing his life stories with you! I'm glad we have his music to bring back these prcious memories. Take care~thanks for sharing yours Adam.
@@ProfessorofRock You are welcome! And boy the stories I heard about Jimi, Janis, and The Who ect...during those Fillmore West days. I was into hard rock in high school so of course I'll never forget their stories and photo albums. Lol I just wanted to add.... I got to meet April Wine back in 1982 when they opened for Eddie. That was, and still is one of my favorites.
Mr. Money was a friend of my childhood friends family. The family owned a popular Irish Pub in Berkeley (McNally’s) and Mr. Money was a regular there. I met him at my friends house when he had come for a BQ at their home in like 81 or 82. I was only in HS at the time. He was a totally regular guy and really friendly. Gave me a dollar bill that he signed which I still have somewhere. We also did yard work at his home in Moraga once. Great memories. RIP Eddie Money
Eddie mastered a contemporary rock sound with meaningful nostalgia-based lyrics. Saw him for a New Years Eve concert and he truly delivered... his beautiful wife was there and he introduced her to the crowd in the theater... So personable then and it's awesome to see it shine through in your interview... Thx PoR!
One of his last shows was here in Maricopa, AZ at the Harrah's AkChin casino. A few friends and I planned to go, but work schedules and such got in the way. We weren't even aware that he was sick, and he passed away about 4 months after that show took place. We were all really disappointed in ourselves for not going to that show, and sad that he was gone. That missed opportunity made us vow to go see every show we could... especially some of the artists that are in the twilight of their careers. You never know when you'll get another chance. Eddie Money was the epitome of cool!
Totally loved Eddie Money. I did get the privilege of seeing him live with his original band, while his kids were still little. It was completely fabulous. He is missed. RIP Eddie.
It still hurts. Eddie Money was one of my 1st music loves. The 1st time I saw Eddie he opened for Sammy Hager and Boston 😀. I couldn't even tell you how many times I've seen Eddie. My kids also grew up listening to Eddie Money, and We all still love him so much and miss him. Also what a really nice down-to-earth guy.
I love how Eddie's music is so tied to your memories of your Father. Then to be able to tell Eddie that and he turns around and says for you to thank your dad! That is what it's all about right there! You actually gave Eddie a gift by letting him know how his music personally touched his fans life! This was a gem of an interview!!
Being Detroit born and raised, we knew it was the beginning of summer when the voice of Eddie Money sang out from Pine Knob. Eddie opened (and sold out) the outdoor music theater 28 years in a row. He is sorely missed.
Eddie's wife keeps his Facebook page alive. And so endearing to see how much she obviously love Eddie. He just seems like a just a regular guy who happened to be a Rockstar
Eddie passed 1 week after my brother, u was actually getting up to go to my brother's funeral when I saw my phone was lit up with messages. People knew how much of a fan I was. He was so friendly and approachable and always delivered a solid concert. I miss him so much.
The duet with Ronnie Spector was one of the greatest songs ever done. Also, got a kick from the song "She was shake'n". The line "Her Ts were shake'n!" was great!
RIP Eddie Mahoney. Thanks for the great songs. This is a great channel. Whenever I listen to an artist interview, I listen to their music, usually after many years.
My appreciation for the Professor of Rock - and, of course, for Eddie Money - just increased by - I'll just say, a thousand-fold! This was a FANTASTIC interview! Thank you very much!
@@ProfessorofRock Yes he was. First time I met him his wife was very pregnant and he asked us to help her while he was getting their luggage to his vehicle. They had just landed and we were picking someone up. We spent about an hour helping him and just BS-ing about music (we were all in struggling bands at the time). He told us to just keep playing. The second time he was walking into a restaurant we had just finished doing a sound check on. We had a cover band gig that night. He remembered us, stood there talking to us for a while, then said he'd come back later and listen to us. The place was called Imperial Garden in Hollywood off Sunset. The place was packed that night and tended to attract a lot of famous people of the time, so I have no idea if he came back or not, but he seemed genuinely happy to just get to talk music with regular dudes.
When MTV came out in the early 80’s I was in the 3rd grade. I was absolutely infatuated with his Shakin’ video! I would stand at the door every morning waiting to see if the video would come on before the bus would come. That album, No Control, was the very first album that I ever owned, I got it that Christmas. It hangs on my wall to this day. One of my favorite artists of all time. 🙏🏻
we miss him big. he always opend the season .first concert of summer at pine knob in Michigan .we never missed his show. he was Awesome with great memories and good times linked to him. Thank you eddy we love ya.
I saw Eddie Money at a free concert he did with Night Ranger, Joe Walsh, Tim McGraw and Montel Jordan @ Camp Lejuene North Carolina in 1997 while I was serving in the Marine Corps. He was by far the best of them all. Thank you Professor for this one. Great memories!
My wife was born on Camp Lejeuine, and her dad was a Marine there. He was retired and worked the boat docks for Civil Service there as well. I LOVE that area. God Bless you for your service sir… Ooooohh Rahhh….
What a wonderful interview! Eddie was such a character. He could have made it as a stand-up comic. Two-Tickets To Paradise has such a great vibe to it and Jimmy Lyon’s outstanding solo work really carries the tune. Touching story about the connection to your dad, too. Thanks, Adam!
Oh he was funny. I met him at a record convention. His manager was hanging around making sure he didn't overindulge. He gave the waitresses some very generous tips and definitely was a character!
Thanks for the personal reflection. I miss my Dad too every day. He was a music fan. He loved Creedence Clearwater Revival. We would listen to music together and he would always appreciate those moments. Almost as much as me. Eddie Money was the real deal. RIP
Thank You for letting us all GO BACK AGAIN. Yout are the best at what you do. Kasey Kasam would agree. I love hearing the Artists takes behind their music. ROCK ON. You are the ULTIMATE ROCK and ROLL HISTORIAN. Thanks for the memories.
I saw Eddie Money live at an outdoor street event in Orlando over a decade ago. My boss asked me the next day, "How was it?" I looked at him dumbfounded, "He rocked, of course." What else can you say except that he'e EDDIE MONEY. I love these interviews. So many of these people are my favorites since I was growing up. They're even more favorite now. "They" say not to meet your heroes but "meeting" these heroes have only endeared me more. Such great music, such great memories. Thank you.❤
My family and I moved from England to Long Island at the end of 1964, and Eddie was one of my first friends in America. I used to work in an advertising mailing company, and sometimes he would pick me up after work. He would be standing outside of his car singing at the top of his lungs ‘Waiting for a factory girl’ You just never knew when he would break into a song!
Candid conversations are the best interviews, this one is so outstanding. My father, mother , sister, and brother have all passed. I'm so grateful for music that keeps their memories alive, some songs warm my thoughts of the ages. Especially songs they loved. So glad Eddie Money's music has been and always will be part of my life.
The Best Male Rock singer. Missed every day. I also relate me to my dad, who passed a year before Eddie. He took me, back in 1991, to see Eddie in San Diego at a place in Kearney Mesa named "The Rhythm Cafe" for the first time. Eddie also deserves to be in the Hall of Fame of Rock & Roll for sure. Great Video Professor as always. Cheers

In classic fashion, he stuck his hand out and said, “Eddie Money. Rock star.” Classic. Seemed like a super nice, normal guy. Rest in peace.
He was just one of the greatest guys in the music business.
I even clicked the little info link. Gonna get me some ZENNIs while I support the Professor of Rock.
That sounds EXACTLY like something Eddie would've done hahaha.
Sounds like the title of a song... Eddie Money... Rock star.
Was this in 1981 in Lakeland when he opened for Foghat? Great show and ALL great guys in both bands...
I had the opportunity to meet Eddie at a meet and greet in the mid 90’s and told him how his music saved my life. I was experiencing panic attacks and depression from a volatile relationship and just knowing somebody like him existed soothed my soul- it was a recording I had made of some live show in the tropics- it was soo beautiful and inspiring. As I walked away he stood up and yelled “I love you!l 😆💜 he really was as genuine as his music💜
That's awesome just listening to him do this interview makes me feel good he was truly an amazing person. Rip
My Dad died two days after my 15th birthday in 1973. Never got to really share a lot of music with him. I would love to sit down with him and talk about so many things, music included. Thanks for sharing this wonderful interview Adam. Eddie made such good music. My wife and I loved all his songs. Lost her in 2021. Now music is a two edged sword. Lots of memories but they can be very bittersweet. R.I.P. Dad, Rhonda and Eddie Money. Wish all of you could “Take me home tonight.”
Back in 2011~12 my daughter’s elementary school music teacher invited LI area rock legends to appear for their Spring 2012 school concert. Invites went out to Billy Joel, Pat Benatar, Brian Setzer and Eddie Money. Out of all of them, Eddie was the ONLY one to respond and ACCEPT that invitation. (He lived for a time in Levittown btw)
Keep in mind that this was way before his popular resurgence courtesy of his 2018~19 reality TV show ‘Real Money’ and he graciously took the time to visit the school and perform a rousing rendition of TTTP with the students for the faculty and families.
I still have video of that evening’s performance as well as pics taken with him and my daughter.
Truly a stand up guy. Thank You and Rest In Power Eddie..
Saw him at the Wichita Riverfest. Put on an amazing set and afterwards announced to the crowd he'd be hanging out on the side of the stage for any fans who wanted to come up and say hello. Super nice and very humble. Appreciated his fans.
I just sent this to mrs. $. I'm sure she'll really love it. I love interviews with Eddie. He really was such a character and all-around good guy.
He was always a delight. What he did for Roni Spektor was incredible
I LOVEd him!! His song 'Shakin' brings back fond memories of my Senior year in high school. It was playing on the radio on the way to school one morning and everyone walking in the halls and thru the doors was singing that song. Really cool moment and memory.

"I grew up in the 60s. Nobody got laid." A gem. Seemingly a very down to earth guy. RIP
Rest in peace to the late Eddie Money. He had so many great songs, it's overwhelming! Such a cool thing to be shown, an interview with him, it's a time capsule!
Thanks RC32!
@@ProfessorofRock My pleasure!
Miss him dearly.
Eddie Money is truly a great guy. A Brooklyn guy who became a California rock star. Love it.
2 Tickets to Paradise is what we get with you every day, Professor. Thanks for this.
That's right! Gotta love it.
Enjoyed this one.
I saw Eddie twice in one year back in the mid nineties. Great performances. At the greet, and meet after the second one my wife mentioned to him that I was a state trooper. He seemed to get excited, and thanked me for being a cop. He seemed very sincere. Great guy.
I had a chance to meet the Money Man when he played a theater-sized venue in the small town I lived in. My best friend was stage crew and got me in. He and the band and I ended up hanging out talk7ng like musicians do. The band invited me back to the hotel to party after.
Eddie was one of the nicest, funniest, most genuine musicians I've ever met. He was just a regular shmoe who happened to be an international rock star, but was not any better than anyone else.
He's hilarious Probably the funniest guy I've ever interviewed !
He loved to make people happy and make them laugh…
I met Eddie in Boardman Ohio! He was one of the nicest guy you could evert met! Man was he cool and fun! I never forget that!! Good times!
I had the pleasure of actually meet Eddie Money once at a USO concert while I was in the Navy. It was a small audience and you couldn't tell because he rocked it as if it was a full auditorium.
After the concert he stayed to mingle with us sailors and sign autographs. He was amazing. I always thought about he took a lot of time making all of us feel loved and appreciated.
When I say small crowd I'm talking about a dining room at an on base all hands club. Probably around 100+/- audience. He didn't seem bothered and gave a real performance. So humble.
Adam….THIS was your best interview.
It has personal connections between you and your dad and Eddie….Eddie’s stories on how he met other people in the business…how he became a singer…
IMHO your best interview.
May your dad see this from heaven and smile! God bless.
:)
RIP Eddie. I’m so glad you got to interview Eddie. What a great interview. And the fact he said to you to thank your father for turning you on to his music. It don’t get no better than that. Music is magical.
❤️💜💚
Adam, you bring out the best of the artists, in all your interviews. I was fortunate to have seen Eddie in Austin, Texas. What a fantastic show!
He's really, a wonderful man... He's sorely missed.
RIP 🙏 EDDIE
You won't be, Forgotten!
GOD BLESS
👍👍❤️😊

You pull some of the best interviews out of these artists because of your deep respect for the musicians who create these masterpieces. And your love and respect for the man who introduced you to the art . . . your father. Good job, Mr. Reader!
I saw Eddie Money , about 10 or more times opening for other bands. Then he became the headliner and other bands opened for him.
He is truly missed.
He is definitely missed.
A true rockstar.
My uncle's band played this song in the 90's, and one day I sat in on their practice with my keyboard. They loved my keyboard playing, and the fact that I could play all of these 70's songs by ear. They sounded AMAZING in the chorus for "Two Tickets To Paradise." I can still hear it in my mind to this day.
Great memories. A great thank you for sharing it .
I can play a lot of classics on the piano too.
@@xxlilly_playsxxkiz9980 The song that was the most fun for me was "Swingtown" by Steve Miller Band. I played those cool keyboard notes, and kept changing sounds like they do in the actual song.
@@BillGraper It’s an otherworldly sounding song.
Eddie Money is extremely underrated imo! His Greatest hits is great.
Saw him a couple years before his death. He was a natural with the crowd, had everyone dancing and singing, and played his saxophone too. We lost a legendary performer.
One of the most underrated vocalists/artists of the late 70’s and early 80’s in my opinion. It wasn’t until that big 1986 hit “Take Me Home Tonight” that people actually heard or knew of his music which is sad.
My favorite is Gimme Some Water
I agree. Good call.
Great vocal on that one!
Not really underrated. Great history. Sad that he fought addiction.
Here in Australia it is Baby Hold On from 78 that is more known
I love the stories about your father that you share with us. My best music memory I have with my father was a discussion about a Hollies song in the 1960s, Long Cool Woman (in a black dress). Lead singer Allan Clarke, who was also a cowriter, had a great voice. My Dad, an older guy born in 1916, told me that he didn't understand why anyone with such a good voice would want to sing that kind of stuff. I always remind myself that his idea of a rollicking tune was Mack the Knife! Thanks, Professor!
My very first Eddie Money song was “Shakin’”. I saw the video on MTV during the summer when I was 15, and became an instant fan. “Two Tickets To Paradise” is my favorite of his songs, but I can’t help loving “Take Me Home Tonight”, too. I actually knew who Ronnie Spector was and thought it was so cool that they did that song together. Thank you for this segment. Eddie was one of the greats, for sure.❤❤
What a cool guy,, just really personable and humorous and I know you realize how fortunate and frankly,, historic in an artistic sense to get such an offhand and perfect interview with a guy who IS classic rock,, hats off again Professor,, you NAILED it...
So lucky to be an 80’s child!
The music was so amazing!
No kidding!
Like, totally.
I saw him on his very last tour. He stayed after the show and gave out autographs. I met him and thanked him for his music. Shakin' was always my favorite.
Eddie Money was one of kind. He was such an authentic, kind and interesting man. Anytime I get to hear an interview with him I never pass up the opportunity.
"He sounds pitchy." -- Literally laughed out loud and woke up the dog.
For those in the Metro Detroit area, Eddie Money and Pine Knob went hand in hand. Every year, he was the concert that kicked off the summer concert series. Every year, we would proudly purchase those tickets and attend. Eddie Money was the start of summer, and the start of summer music. I always looked forward to that show, even if i was a little too young for the audience. :)
RIP Moneyman.
He was such a great live performer.
After watching the professor of rock’s videos for a while, I’ve come to the conclusion that he is truly the heir apparent to Casey Kasem. Thoroughly knowledgeable with the facts, respectful interviews, and always great backstories. A true tribute to the master!
Saw him back in the 80’s. His music never gets old.
Eddie Money was a great live act but was such a great humble guy. He he never lost that wild Brooklyn accent.
That's right!
Very personable.
Hope he made it to Heaven.
Without a doubt! @@timothyroskie5742
Eddie money was like Tom petty ; the backbone of rock n roll but rarely mentioned up there with the greats even though they were great in their own right!
I remember singing “ I got 2 chickens a bag of rice, won’t you grab some eggs we’ll eat toniiiiiight” lol great times!
Eddie Money was a good ol' Rock & Roller. Saw him many times in the late '70's & '80's. Went to one of his last concerts in Arizona before he died & he was still rockin'.
He's a rocker that leaves it ALL on the stage!
I only saw him 3 times. I snuck into his "Two Tickets To Paradise" tour when I was 10. I then saw him in 1982 and lastly in 1986 or 87. All great concerts! Gone way too soon!
One of the best rockers ever.
You are a man of a good heart. Stay well, and thank you sincerely so much for your touching videos.
I lived next to a horse racing track in Upstate NY for 34 years. In the late 90's that track hosted Fireworks Over Central NY for a local radio station (TK99). Eddie Money loved playing that gig so much he did it for almost 10 years in a row. Every year I'd sit in my backyard and have a free Eddie Money concert with my family... That's a special memory...
Michigan here, best memory I have of Eddie Money is when he was playing Two Tickets to Paradise in 1982. He was an opening for The Who and I jumped the wall to get down to the main floor during the song. I will always cherish that memory as one of my formative moment in my teenage youth.
I saw Eddie Money open for Foghat on 4/5/1978. We didn't know much about him then. That changed over the next few years!
Very cool!
He started making hits.
I loved and still love Eddie Money. I am so lucky that I was alive and grew up in the ‘70’s and ‘80’s. I hope he knows that no one fell asleep.❤️💔❤️🩹
Thanks Adam. Eddie is one of my favorites. Sad he’s gone.
Endless nights is one of my favorites & I wanna go back is my theme song.
Endless Nights is a classic
Very underrated songs.
Great interview. I saw Eddie 5 or 6 times. 4 times in front of a large crowd. Once in front of a huge crowd.
1 time, and the most memorable, was in front of maybe 35 people at a casino in the middle of nowhere in Oklahoma.
My wife and I looked to be the only people that even knew who he was.
He put in the same fantastic show for us and a few others that he’d put on in front of 5000 people.
At the end of the show he told the “crowd” - “Tell everyone what a good show they missed!”
We bought some Tshirts, Eddie and his daughter - a good singer herself btw - signed them and we talked awhile.
One of my fav entertainers ever - a class act.
These interviews are the best and this one with Eddie is simply magical. Adam takes pop music history to another level, proving with every interview that he loves the music as much, if not more, than the musicians themselves. Only someone with Adam's genuine love for the subject would be able to get Eddie's eyes light up like they did when he learned about how his music tangentially led to Chris Pratt and Anna Faris meeting. That's a rare gift. I would love to see a feature at some point on Bill Graham. The impact that one man had on our culture is almost impossible to fully appreciate, but if there is someone who could, it is our humble professor.
You know you’re a legend when you end up marrying Chris Pratt and Anna Faris.
I came to L.A. from Boston to visit my sister and she and her boyfriend both worked for Eddie's record label. After a fantastic dinner party honoring Jonny Mathis, they took me to a studio where Eddie was recording an album. It was great to meet him. Such gentleman. It was quite an evening for me, a greenhorn from Massachusetts. That was when L.A. was still an exciting and fun place. The 80s! Miss them along with the 60s and 70s.
Classy dude, so glad I got to see him in concert when I was younger. His music sounded as good live as it did on cassette! Real whaler, and awesome singer.Rip Eddie.
I used to work backstage security for concerts years ago.I recognized him as he walked towards me,I said "hey Eddie Money!"He came over and gave me a hug. I was a fan of his music, but just then I became a fan of him personally.
I got to see Eddie Money at a race track about 10 years ago. It was a free concert and "I think I'm in love" is one of my all time favorites, so why not? His voice was a little rough for the first couple of songs until he warmed up, but just amazing from then on. This was also a great reminder of how many hits he had put out. I could only remember a few walking in, but counted at least 13 by the time it was done. Great time.
I watch your channel all the time. I usually don't comment but this episode really moved me. This is kind of a long story. In the summer of 2007 my son was 15, on a spur of the moment we decided to go downtown to see Eddie Money. This started a regular occurrence and until Eddie passed away, we saw him open the summer concert at Pine Knob. We miss only one or two shows in those years and that was due to in 2015 I was diagnosed with MS. That was the start of my son's love of music. I have even taken my step kids and grandkids to see Eddie. Thank you for your channel, music is sometimes the only thing that heals the mind, body and soul.
Funny, I got stuck in an elevator with him at the Venetian hotel for two hours. He told me he was a New York Policeman. I said “man you’re a dead ringer for Jon Von Jovi” he laughed and said you don’t know how many times I’ve heard that. Just a down to earth great guy.
Awesome. Thanks for sharing that!
Haha, did he sing in the elevator? He used to sing sing anywhere he went.
Awwww…so sweet.
I loved Eddie Money! When "Two tickets to paradise" came on the radio for the first time, my dad and I were driving to Seattle to Tower Records to buy the album! My dad and I just looked at each other, and started jamming out to it! It was a great daddy-daughter outing. I miss Eddie and I miss my dad. But every time I hear Eddie Money on the classic rock station, I smile and remember that day with my dad. Love it! Thanks for showing that interview with the late great Eddie Money!!!!
I wish we had that many record stores where I live. Sadly, there aren’t any…
Just coming across this video a year later! I got to see Eddie perform at a free concert in Omaha about 8-9 years ago opening for Joan Jett, and his entire band was comprised of his kids and their friends. They rocked it. He was so awesome, and gracious to the people in the park. The last thing he said as they closed their set was "I dont do this for me; I do it for you! Thank you so much for having me!" The man has very obviously been humbled and gracious for his legacy over the years and appreciated his fans. I hear all sorts of stories about how nice and friendly he was. He is definitely missed. Thanks, Prof.
This one really hit the feels button, Adam. Easy to see that you had such a wonderful relationship with your dad. Cherish that forever. Great interview.
Probably one of the most underrated singer/songwriter/musician, he could do it all! I really enjoyed this interview with a down to earth person! I especially like how he deferred or referred to the names you threw out or he brought up in such a positive and loving(reverentail)tone. RIP Eddie, you were one of the greatest!
I saw Eddie play at the Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk many years ago. He said, "I wrote this next song 3 rehabs ago." So funny. "I Wanna Go Back" is the greatest story of my life. May God bless you Eddie Money. I grew up playing songs from you. Hope to meet you in the next life.
Lol I love it.
I fell in love with him when his first album came out. I saw him so many times when he would come to Florida. I have pictures and two autographed concert T-shirt as well. I have them in ziplock bags, I never wore them. The last time I saw him I asked him if I could give him a kiss on his cheek! He said yes and that made the concert even better that night! He will always have a place in my heart.❤❤❤ 1:52 RIP Eddie.
Eddie Money and Heart appeared together at Fort Bragg in an unbilled concert for the troops in the early 80’s. I saw them there. It was magnificent.
I feel fortunate to have grown up in the golden age of rock and roll. Thanks for taking me back there, Professor!
Awesome!
I’ve been to Fort Bragg many times.
I love Eddie SO much!!! Thank you for this interview. He and his music touched SO many people's lives! You are missed, Eddie.❤
Saw Eddie Money live several times, always a great show. Jimmy Lyon is still one of my all time favorite guitar players, just great. One thing that stuck out in my mind the last time seeing him live was just how many great songs he had. Got to meet him as well after a show and like everyone has sad, just a down to earth nice guy. Great and everlasting memories!!!!
Great interview with Eddie. My favorite of his is "I Wanna Go Back". Yes, his version is the best and you never get tired of listening to it. RIP, Eddie!
Saw him play live in 2001 at pine knob in Michigan. Good show. He really puts it all out there when he gets on stage.
He loves it.
He was a hoot.
Thank you Adam… just listening to Eddie Money talk, with that DEEP Brooklyn accent that will NEVER go away, reminded me of MY dad. And the way you and your dad would play music trivia in the car (just like me and my dad)… you brought a happy year to my eye. We have a local DJ here in the Wash DC area, Don Geronimo, who was also a HUGE FAN of Eddie Money. It was his show that I fist heard She Was Shakin, MY favorite Money song…
It's very special to me too. Eddie and my dad were best friends in the the early years in the bay area. He was his stage, road manager, and my godfather! I have great memories of being part of the family and seeing his success during the late 70's early 80's. So much fun. Love how much he enjoyed sharing his life stories with you! I'm glad we have his music to bring back these prcious memories. Take care~thanks for sharing yours Adam.
Very cool! Thanks for sharing that. the Good OLD DAYS!
@@ProfessorofRock You are welcome! And boy the stories I heard about Jimi, Janis, and The Who ect...during those Fillmore West days. I was into hard rock in high school so of course I'll never forget their stories and photo albums. Lol I just wanted to add.... I got to meet April Wine back in 1982 when they opened for Eddie. That was, and still is one of my favorites.
Mr. Money was a friend of my childhood friends family. The family owned a popular Irish Pub in Berkeley (McNally’s) and Mr. Money was a regular there. I met him at my friends house when he had come for a BQ at their home in like 81 or 82. I was only in HS at the time. He was a totally regular guy and really friendly. Gave me a dollar bill that he signed which I still have somewhere. We also did yard work at his home in Moraga once. Great memories. RIP Eddie Money
@@cnph7067 Thanks for sharing your awesome memories.
Eddie mastered a contemporary rock sound with meaningful nostalgia-based lyrics. Saw him for a New Years Eve concert and he truly delivered... his beautiful wife was there and he introduced her to the crowd in the theater... So personable then and it's awesome to see it shine through in your interview... Thx PoR!
THanks Flavelinator! Love EM.
I saw him in 1985/6 opening for one of our local bands (.38 Special) and he put on a much better show.
He was truly entertaining.
Professor, much respect to you for the way you honor your father. I feel the love you have for him and I know where you are at.
One of his last shows was here in Maricopa, AZ at the Harrah's AkChin casino. A few friends and I planned to go, but work schedules and such got in the way. We weren't even aware that he was sick, and he passed away about 4 months after that show took place. We were all really disappointed in ourselves for not going to that show, and sad that he was gone. That missed opportunity made us vow to go see every show we could... especially some of the artists that are in the twilight of their careers. You never know when you'll get another chance. Eddie Money was the epitome of cool!
Loved all of Eddie Moneys songs…soundtrack of my childhood! Another awesome synopsis Professor!
Thanks Steven!
Totally loved Eddie Money. I did get the privilege of seeing him live with his original band, while his kids were still little. It was completely fabulous. He is missed. RIP Eddie.
Saw him backup Allman Brothers in ‘81!! Put on a great performance!!🤘🔥
Very cool!
He was born a ramblin’ man.
It still hurts. Eddie Money was one of my 1st music loves. The 1st time I saw Eddie he opened for Sammy Hager and Boston 😀. I couldn't even tell you how many times I've seen Eddie. My kids also grew up listening to Eddie Money, and We all still love him so much and miss him.
Also what a really nice down-to-earth guy.
I love how Eddie's music is so tied to your memories of your Father. Then to be able to tell Eddie that and he turns around and says for you to thank your dad! That is what it's all about right there! You actually gave Eddie a gift by letting him know how his music personally touched his fans life! This was a gem of an interview!!
Being Detroit born and raised, we knew it was the beginning of summer when the voice of Eddie Money sang out from Pine Knob. Eddie opened (and sold out) the outdoor music theater 28 years in a row. He is sorely missed.
Rest in peace Eddie definitely one of my favorite artist of all time great songs
Such a legend.
He was awesome.
Eddie's wife keeps his Facebook page alive. And so endearing to see how much she obviously love Eddie. He just seems like a just a regular guy who happened to be a Rockstar
What an interview! What a guy! Always a huge fan of his. That was a pleasure to watch. Thanks Adam!
Thanks for watching.
A legend who is sometimes under appreciated in the grand scheme of things. What a voice.
Eddie passed 1 week after my brother, u was actually getting up to go to my brother's funeral when I saw my phone was lit up with messages. People knew how much of a fan I was. He was so friendly and approachable and always delivered a solid concert. I miss him so much.
The duet with Ronnie Spector was one of the greatest songs ever done. Also, got a kick from the song "She was shake'n". The line "Her Ts were shake'n!" was great!
RIP Eddie Mahoney. Thanks for the great songs. This is a great channel. Whenever I listen to an artist interview, I listen to their music, usually after many years.
Very cool!
From your interview I can see what a sweet guy Eddie was, and how excited he got when talking about meeting the other rock stars. Now I miss him!
What a nice guy, he has a touch of Rodney Dangerfield about him. 🙂
For sure!
Love Rodney!
My appreciation for the Professor of Rock - and, of course, for Eddie Money - just increased by - I'll just say, a thousand-fold! This was a FANTASTIC interview! Thank you very much!
I met him twice. Once at LAX, once as he was walking in a restaurant I was walking out of. Really nice guy both times.
Very cool. Down to earth for sure.
@@ProfessorofRock Yes he was. First time I met him his wife was very pregnant and he asked us to help her while he was getting their luggage to his vehicle. They had just landed and we were picking someone up. We spent about an hour helping him and just BS-ing about music (we were all in struggling bands at the time). He told us to just keep playing. The second time he was walking into a restaurant we had just finished doing a sound check on. We had a cover band gig that night. He remembered us, stood there talking to us for a while, then said he'd come back later and listen to us. The place was called Imperial Garden in Hollywood off Sunset. The place was packed that night and tended to attract a lot of famous people of the time, so I have no idea if he came back or not, but he seemed genuinely happy to just get to talk music with regular dudes.
He was very sweet.
When MTV came out in the early 80’s I was in the 3rd grade. I was absolutely infatuated with his Shakin’ video! I would stand at the door every morning waiting to see if the video would come on before the bus would come. That album, No Control, was the very first album that I ever owned, I got it that Christmas. It hangs on my wall to this day. One of my favorite artists of all time. 🙏🏻
we miss him big. he always opend the season .first concert of summer at pine knob in Michigan .we never missed his show. he was Awesome with great memories and good times linked to him. Thank you eddy we love ya.
That's such a great memory!
I’m glad.
I saw Eddie Money at a free concert he did with Night Ranger, Joe Walsh, Tim McGraw and Montel Jordan @ Camp Lejuene North Carolina in 1997 while I was serving in the Marine Corps. He was by far the best of them all. Thank you Professor for this one. Great memories!
My wife was born on Camp Lejeuine, and her dad was a Marine there. He was retired and worked the boat docks for Civil Service there as well. I LOVE that area.
God Bless you for your service sir… Ooooohh Rahhh….
What a wonderful interview! Eddie was such a character. He could have made it as a stand-up comic. Two-Tickets To Paradise has such a great vibe to it and Jimmy Lyon’s outstanding solo work really carries the tune. Touching story about the connection to your dad, too. Thanks, Adam!
Thanks Robster! Always appreciate your comments.
I would have loved to see him do a stand up routine.
Oh he was funny. I met him at a record convention. His manager was hanging around making sure he didn't overindulge. He gave the waitresses some very generous tips and definitely was a character!
Yeah, I got a Rodney Dangerfield vibe from him. All he'd need is a red tie.
Thanks for the personal reflection.
I miss my Dad too every day. He was a music fan. He loved Creedence Clearwater Revival. We would listen to music together and he would always appreciate those moments. Almost as much as me.
Eddie Money was the real deal. RIP
My dad LOVED CCR! So cool to have that connection. Thanks for sharing.
Love me some CCR.
Thank You for letting us all GO BACK AGAIN. Yout are the best at what you do. Kasey Kasam would agree. I love hearing the Artists takes behind their music. ROCK ON. You are the ULTIMATE ROCK and ROLL HISTORIAN. Thanks for the memories.
I saw Eddie Money live at an outdoor street event in Orlando over a decade ago. My boss asked me the next day, "How was it?" I looked at him dumbfounded, "He rocked, of course." What else can you say except that he'e EDDIE MONEY. I love these interviews. So many of these people are my favorites since I was growing up. They're even more favorite now. "They" say not to meet your heroes but "meeting" these heroes have only endeared me more. Such great music, such great memories. Thank you.❤
I got so moved by this video, watering eyes. What a great guy Eddie was (still is). Thanks Professor, always excellent videos.
My family and I moved from England to Long Island at the end of 1964, and Eddie was one of my first friends in America. I used to work in an advertising mailing company, and sometimes he would pick me up after work. He would be standing outside of his car singing at the top of his lungs ‘Waiting for a factory girl’ You just never knew when he would break into a song!
I imagine you telling your Dad about this interview. That must have been a good conversation.
It' was amazing. We watched it together.
So...as I was fast forwarding to the interview, I thought is that Thurman Munson !!! ....Wow. RIP Eddie RIP Thurman.
Candid conversations are the best interviews, this one is so outstanding. My father, mother , sister, and brother have all passed. I'm so grateful for music that keeps their memories alive, some songs warm my thoughts of the ages. Especially songs they loved. So glad Eddie Money's music has been and always will be part of my life.
Thanks for sharing.
Keeping the music alive!!!
What an absolutely awesome interview of an amazing guy, a music legend and incredibly down to earth man!
The Best Male Rock singer. Missed every day. I also relate me to my dad, who passed a year before Eddie. He took me, back in 1991, to see Eddie in San Diego at a place in Kearney Mesa named "The Rhythm Cafe" for the first time. Eddie also deserves to be in the Hall of Fame of Rock & Roll for sure. Great Video Professor as always. Cheers
