If you don't have a copy of this CD find one, it's 1978 the peek of the Sex, Drugs and Rock 'N' Roll ear, this CD will take you back to the time when having friends was more than a chat room or a video game partner some where in ciber space. A lot of these songs still hit home with me, as they well you, Life for the taking, Can't keep a good man down, give me some water, were the big hits that summer, 'Call on me' for the lovely ladys, I can remember when I was just a kid, driving around town with my friends blasting tune after tune even the local cop's dug the music. So if your looking to score some great tunes, Hop in to your 72, get your sweet mama's head down in your lap then light up a fat one and enjoy "Life for the Taking" an excellent score.
Being from the Bay Area, Eddie's stomping grounds, he's been a big part of the rock 'n' roll scene in my area for decades now and LIFE FOR THE TAKING is a big reason why. His 2nd release features such stellar tracks as CAN'T KEEP A GOOD MAN DOWN, GIMME SOME WATER & ROCK AND ROLL THE PLACE and yet this release has been pretty much overlooked by critics and fans alike! Perhaps his stellar self-titled debut release cast a shadow to big to get out from under or critics felt he suffered the inevitable sophomore slump. Whatever the reason, LIFE FOR THE TAKING deserves another listen in my opinion. So if you're an Eddie Money fan and only have a Greatest Hits collection, and there are about half a dozen of them out there (!!!), do yourself a favor and big this Cd up, you won't be disappointed, it's an overlooked 80's classic.

This is one of my favorite albums by Eddie Money. It takes me back to my younger years. I remember listening to this with my two best friend and after many years we are all getting together and I wanted to surprise one of them. Because she and I would just play this and led zepplin over and over
Great old rock and roll music and even a couple blues songs mixed in.The title track is awesome,I turn it up loud whenever I hear it!
