NEW * Go All The Way - Raspberries {DES Stereo} Summer 1972

1972.....#5 U.S. Billboard Hot 100, #4 U.S. Cash Box Top 100, #5 Canada, #14 Australia
DES Stereo by Bob Zwolinski / Original video edited and AI remastered with HQ stereo sound.
"Go All the Way" is a single by American rock group Raspberries, released in July 1972 and written by band leader Eric Carmen. The song reached the Top 5 on three principal US charts: number 5 on the Billboard Hot 100, number 4 on Cashbox and number 3 on Record World. The single sold more than 1.3 million copies, earning the band their only certified Gold Record. It was their second single release, their all-time biggest US hit, and appeared on their debut LP, Raspberries.
Carmen has stated that the inspiration for the song was the Rolling Stones' hit, "Let's Spend the Night Together." Because of its sexually suggestive lyrics, considered risqué for the day, "Go All the Way" was banned by the BBC.
The tune ranked at number 33 on Billboard's Top 100 Singles of 1972 year-end list (number 39 on Cashbox's year-end best-sellers countdown). In 1989, Spin magazine named "Go All the Way" in its list of the "100 Greatest Singles of All Time", ranking it at number 91. "Go All the Way" appeared in Blender magazine's July 2006 issue as one of its "Greatest Songs Ever".

The music world lost an incredibly talented songwriter, vocalist, and musician. As a lifelong Clevelander, the sad news of Eric's passing hits hard. RIP Eric Carmen

I'd never heard of The Raspberries until quite recently even though I knew who Eric Carmen was but his voice sounded a lot like Russell Mael of Sparks here.

[davidirwin]
