Carmen's first brush with fame arrived in 1972, the year the Raspberries took 'Go All the Way' all the way to five on the Billboard Hot 100.
Eric Carmen, the Cleveland rocker who pioneered power pop as the lead singer of the Raspberries and later found solo success with such soft rock standards as 'All By Myself' and 'Hungry Eyes,' has died at the age of 74. His death was announced by his family on his official website. His widow Amy Carmen wrote, 'It is with tremendous sadness that we share the heartbreaking news of the passing of Eric Carmen.
Melding the heavy riffs of the Who with the candied harmonies of the Beach Boys, 'Go All the Way' created the blueprint for the style that became known as power pop: the sweet melodies were given heft by the crunching guitars. Generations of rockers would strive to replicate the sugared hard rock of the Raspberries but Carmen wound up softening his attack after he parted ways with the group.
