Raspbernie Posted August 3, 2004 Share Posted August 3, 2004 After our marathon MARATHON MAN book signing, Eric posed for a bunch of pictures holding the book. Just as I was putting the camera away he said, "Wait. You have to take one more picture." He then led Ken and I through his house and into his study. Its walls were covered in gold records, awards and other mementos. He placed his copy of ERIC CARMEN: MARATHON MAN atop a pile of his favorite books on his bookcase, right next to compilations of F. Scott Fitzgerald short stories and biographies of Brian Wilson and Paul McCartney.Bernie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

darlene Posted August 3, 2004 Share Posted August 3, 2004 Eric has made a classy display of "his favorite things." Very impressive choices he's made to display. Who signed his baseballs? EC MM looks "right at home" and in great company in the display. Way to go! --Darlene Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marvin Posted August 3, 2004 Share Posted August 3, 2004 I feel honored. Except for the first book (which appears to be a George Martin book) and "MM" (which I will get soon), I've got all the books that are in Eric's distinguished pile.Marvin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blackhawkpat Posted August 5, 2004 Share Posted August 5, 2004 Great photo, but I have a question.....what is that book on the bottom called "Beatles Album"? I have never seen that before. Is it a photo book, or text, or what? (Ironic for me because it uses the same script I had for a band emblem about fifteen years ago.)Hey, Eric, I can trade you some unreleased Eric Carmen MP3's for it in trade! Email me!

Poor4Life Posted August 5, 2004 Share Posted August 5, 2004 I'm intruiged by the Beatles book "After the breakup" and the McCartney tome "Many years from now" I've never heard of either of those. I'd be interested to know when those came out.Jeff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

marvin Posted August 6, 2004 Share Posted August 6, 2004 The "Many Years From Now" bbok is actually an authorized bio and worth picking up. Slanted towards Paul's opinions of course.Marvin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
