American singer, songwriter, guitarist, and keyboardist Eric Carmen, a former member of The Raspberries, passed away peacefully in his sleep at the age of 74 earlier this month. The news of his death prompted a resurgence in interest in his music, with many fans revisiting his work in tribute to the late musician.
This week, Carmen posthumously achieved a significant milestone by landing his first two hits on the Digital Song Sales chart. These placements mark a notable achievement for Carmen, as the chart did not exist during his prime years in the music industry.
