About
Eddy was inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame in 1994, a year after Rhino released the definitive double-disc compilation Twang Thang: Anthology. During the '90s and 2000s, Eddy continued to make appearances on record and on-stage, culminating in a headlining appearance at London's Royal Festival Hall in October 2010. This performance led to Eddy recording a new album with producer Richard Hawley. The resulting Road Trip appeared in the U.K. in 2011. He continued to play live shows and in 2018 played a series of concerts in the U.K. to celebrate his 80th birthday. Two years later, his distinctive guitar work was featured on Shemekia Copeland's Uncivil War album, as well as the Johnny Cash and the Royal Philharmonic album. His last appearance on a song during his lifetime was on "Going Home," an all-star charity track organized by Mark Knopfler. Eddy passed away on April 30, 2024. ~ Richie Unterberger, Rovi
