Rock icon Eddie Money reaches back and records 12 hit songs that influenced his career while growing up.
Editorial review
The '60s were arguably rock & roll's glory decade. The style had found its footing in the '50s, but the '60s were when all of its pop, R&B, blues, and country influences had blended into the perfect mix. You could hear all of these elements, but rock & roll had come into its own before splitting off into precise subgenres as the '70s loomed. With 2007's Wanna Go Back, no-frills rocker Eddie Money pays loving tribute to the '60s music that he and his fellow baby-boomers grew up listening to and performing in their teenage garage bands. (The album title is based on his bittersweet, nostalgia-themed 1986 hit "I Wanna Go Back.") Money is a hard-working veteran whose albums were often inconsistent but always included at least a couple of stone-cold knockouts, sometimes with their big singles and sometimes with lesser-known cuts. In a way, Wanna Go Back mirrors Money's career in that its cover songs include iconic hits and a few less obvious gems. Money and his daughter, Jesse Money, kick off the proceedings with Marvin Gaye & Tammi Terrell's "Ain't No Mountain High Enough." The father-daughter duo also team up on Inez Foxx and Charlie Foxx's "Mockingbird" (later recorded by Carly Simon and James Taylor) and Sam & Dave's "Hold On! I'm Comin'." The Foundations earn two spots on Wanna Go Back when Money takes on "Baby Now That I Found You" and "Build Me Up Buttercup." Money tackles some ballads including "You Don't Know Me" (the highest charting version was by Ray Charles) and the James Brown medley "Please Please Please/Baby Don't You Weep," but he's definitely more in his element when he dives into the rockers. Money's enthusiasm for this project is reflected in Jackie Wilson's "Higher and Higher," the Rascals' "Good Lovin'," Mitch Ryder & the Detroit Wheels' "Jenny Take a Ride," and Chris Kenner's "Land of a Thousand Dances" (although Wilson Pickett recorded the best-known version). Money could have pushed his voice harder at times, but he's clearly having a ball on Wanna Go Back. ~ Bret Adams, All Music Guide
Bio / Background
Classic rock icon Eddie Money has been making hit records since 1977.
Hits like "Two Tickets to Paradise", "Baby Hold On", Take Me Home Tonight" and "Shakin", just to name a few, have helped this future Rock & Roll Hall of Fame candidate sell more than 17,000,000 records worldwide.
This new release, "WANNA GO BACK", is his first studio album since 1999.
For this CD the singer reaches back to when he first began performing with his band, The Grapes of Wrath, still as Eddie Mahoney from Long Island, NY.
He gives outstanding vocal performances on such sixties classics as Jackie Wilson's "Higher & Higher", Sam & Dave's "Hold On I'm Comin" and The Foundations "Baby Now That I Found You".
Eddie's 17 year-old daughter, Jessica, makes her recording debut singing with her dad on Marvin Gaye & Tammi Terrell's classic duet "Ain't No Mountain High Enough".
Eddie leaned on his longtime keyboardist, Randy Forrester, to produce this CD.
↓ more ↓Forrester, originally from Memphis,TN,
has produced and/or performed on countless numbers of independent and label recordings in his 30 year career.
The musicians on the CD are an all-star cast with members of TOWER OF POWER, STARSHIP, GREG ALLMAN BAND and the ETTA JAMES BAND laying down the tracks.
The first few thousand copies of this CD will be issued as a "Special Edition" with a photograph of a 15 year-old Eddie on the front, so be sure to grab one of these before the packaging changes.
It will surely become a collector's item!
