The Raspberries were a fantastic power pop band. RIP Eric.

He was huge for a short while in the 70s. Bit like John Miles musically.

Hungry Eyes is one my favourite ever songs. RIP

Yep, great band, not so keen on his solo stuff.

Don’t know who he is either

Never heard of these either. Is this thread some elaborate early April fool?

Rachmaninov Piano concerto no2 in Cm, second movement.

Not a patch on the Shostakovich Piano Concerto no2 in F in my opinion

I like a bit of Em myself

Very talented. He had 3 very successful phases. First as the singer in the power pop band, The Raspberries, in the early 70s, then as a singersongwriter in the mid-late 70s and, finally, in the highly stylised synth-laden late '80s.

This emotive song may be his best:

It’s weird. Considering I’m usually shit hot on the 80s and I win popmaster more often that I lose, I seem to have a blind spot here. I mean, I know hungry eyes but I couldn’t tell you who it was by. The name means absolutely nothing to me and I do know some right chod from the 80s.

His most successful period was 1973-77
