Eddie Money (born Edward Joseph Mahoney, March 21, 1949 in New York City, New York) is an American rock guitarist, saxophonist and singer-songwriter who found success in the 1970s and 1980s with a string of Top 40 hits and platinum albums. Rock impresario Bill Graham said of Money "Eddie Money has it all...Not only can he sing, write and play, but he is a natural performer." After becoming a police officer, like his father, during the late 1960s, Money began to be interested in music, and eventually ended his law enforcement career in favor of becoming a musician. He moved to Berkeley, California and became a regular at area clubs, where he eventually got enough attention to secure a recording contract with Columbia Records. Later in the 1970s, he charted with singles such as "Baby Hold On" and "Two Tickets to Paradise". Money continued his successes and took advantage of the MTV music video scene in the early 1980s with his humorous narrative videos for "Shakin'" and "Think I'm in Love". Money made
a comeback two years later in 1986 and returned to the mainstream rock
spotlight with the album
Can't Hold Back, which featured a
Ronnie Spector
duet with "Take
Me Home Tonight", which reached the Top 10, along with the
hit "I Wanna Go
Back". Money followed the album with another Top 10 hit in
late 1988, "Walk
on Water". During the 1990s and 2000s, Money has
continued to release numerous compilation albums along with several albums
featuring new material. Today, he still tours the "Oldies" circuit
regularly, often accompanied by other successful rock acts from his era,
and has also made several television appearances on
American
sitcoms. Since 1992, Money has traditionally opened the summer concert
season for
DTE Energy Music Theatre in Clarkston, MI
