For those unaware, in 2009, Eddie Money recorded eight cover songs that were released as a pair of CD EPs. Those songs now make their vinyl debut.

In addition to a pair of Beatles classics, the LP includes tracks popularized by AC/DC, the Doors, the Four Tops, Green Day, and Train. Between 1978 and 1991, Money scored 11 Top 40 pop & rock hits.

His self-titled 1977 debut album included the classic rock staples Baby Hold On and Two Tickets to Paradise, and sold two million albums in the U.S.

In 1986, Money scored big again with Take Me Home Tonight, a Top 5 single that earned him a Grammy Award nomination for Best Male Rock Vocal Performance. By the late 1990s, Money could be seen in guest spots on The Drew Carey Show and The King of Queens, but sadly the singer passed away in 2019.

This beautiful, erstwhile musical treasure chest look at another side of the artist we all knew and loved, opens on the impassioned Drops of Jupiter (Train) and a rousing take on the Beatles’ She Came in Through the Bathroom Window, and then we get a blistering crack at AC/DC’s It’s a Long Way to the Top (If You Wanna Rock ’N’ Roll) and a most joyous Reach Out (I’ll Be There) (by the Four Tops).

Along next is a dutiful drum and Hammond organ-led cover of The Spencer Davis Group’s Gimme Some Lovin’ and an atmospherically-charged Roadhouse Blues (The Doors), the recording rounding out with his adventurous take on Green Day’s When I Come Around, closing on another Beatles track, the free flowing dignities within the brilliant Ticket to Ride.
