Another can't-miss track is \"All By Myself,\" which appeared in 1975 on Eric's first solo album. The piano and string arrangements, combined with Carmen's reflective voice, make for a song that's certain to played as long as adult-contemporary stations exist. \"That's Rock n' Roll\" is a danceable number that chronicles the road life of a rock \u0026amp; roll band. \"Hey Deanie,\" a '50s-style rock tune that was later a hit for Shaun Cassidy, rounds out the set.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFormat: CD\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenre: Rock\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReleased: 1997-06-17\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Eric Carmen","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41675732516923,"sku":"EVP-886976939120","price":9.82,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0375\/2873\/1707\/files\/eric-carmen-the-definitive-colle_7SBlp.jpg?v=1776127023","url":"https:\/\/record-stop.com\/products\/eric-carmen-the-definitive-collection-cd","provider":"Record Stop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
