EDDIE MONEY - Can't Hold Back (1986)

Requested in "Request & Fill Corner" section..

EDDIE MONEY career was basically inclined to mainstream radio rock, but his sixth studio album "Can't Hold Back", released in 1986, obviously followed the trend of the moment: AOR.
We find colaborating here the most renowned songwriters of the era such as Richie Zito (who also play guitar, keys, and mixed the whole thing), Stan Meissner or Henry Small (Prism).
Also present are top-notch session musicians including Nathan East, Michael Baird, Pat Mastelotto, Richard Page (Mr. Mister) and Ronnie Spector to name a few.

Precisely the duet with Spector "Take Me Home Tonight" become a #1 hit in the U.S. Billboard Mainstream Rock chart, peaking #4 in the general Top 40. For this one, Money received a Grammy nomination for Best Male Rock Vocal Performance.
Besides, two other singles were amongst the 40 favorites: the excellent midtempo "I Wanna Go Back" and the '80s AOR of "Endless Nights".
All the songs are truly representatives of the golden decade. My favorite is "One Chance", penned by Stan Meissner (and also recorded by himself in his album Windows To Light).

If you don't know Eddie Money's work, "Can't Hold Back" is the album to start. Includes great commercial songs and a lush polished production & sound in the vein of Benny Mardones, eighties Michael Bolton and the aforementioned Stan Meissner.
