I have a slightly heightened risk of getting it because of having Barrett's esophagus, and if I ever get diagnosed, that's it, I will try to go on my own terms. The "cures" are as bad as the disease.

I heard him interviewed once. He said his father called him a

"Rock n' Roll bum" and noted how Parents never want their kids to be

Rock musicians "until you buy them their first house".


Sorry to see you go this soon, Eddie:. You will be missed.

I liked many of his songs, even in his later days of recording.

However, THIS is my favorite Eddie Money song.

RIP Eddie ....



Damn, why my youth gotta be LEAVING ME like that
