PST Nancy, I also noticed Eddie's name was not mentioned on the Academy Awards. Even in death, Eddie gets no respect. It blame his ex-wives for their hate campaign against Eddie that has been going on way too long. And his daughter, Carrie, has also been putting him down, even now. As a fan of Eddie's for many years, it makes me sad. He was a nice person, not the person potrayed in the tabloids or by his ex-wives and children. Now his fans know he is at peace, but is sadly missed. |

PST I am sad that Eddie wasn't mentioned at the proper time in the Academy Award presentations tonight. I will listen to him on youtube and think of the serious injustice--not only to him but to his artistry. I wonder if I am the only one who noticed? |

PST It's his 82nd bd and I love him as much as I did when he returned from Korea. Elvis and Frank you are okay. But, Eddie had to give you a lesson or two. |

PST Hi, Eddie recorded Tell Me Why in 1951. He never used another name other than his own throughout his career. It could have been that RCA put another performer on the flip side of Eddie's record. I never had the 45, I only heard Tell Me Why on an album of Eddie's hits. |

PST Many years ago I bought an Eddie Fisher record singing "Tell me why" on the "b"side was a chap called Johnny Parker singing "A kiss to build a dream" whom I've never heard again. Did Parker exist, or did Fisher record both songs using a different name for some reason?. |

PST Hi Betty, Thanks for your answer. Al Martino recorded this song. I think the hit in Holland in 1953 was "Wish you were here", which was a hit in the U.S. in the spring of 1952. I think it sounds reasonable that, in that time, it became a hit in Holland a few months later. I'll change "Here in my heart" for "Wish you were here" and stop my research about this one. |

PST Hi, I don't think Eddie recorded Here In My Heart, I believe it was Al Martino. I am sure you could find it on a CD of Al's. You could check on that. |

PST Hi there everybody. I'm a collector of hits from the dutch charts. According to the "official" listings Eddie Fisher had a hit in Holland with the song "Here in my heart" in 1953. I've been searching for this recording for many years now, but was never able to find it. Since the last year i'm doubting if Eddie ever recorded this song. Could anyone give me any information about this. Many thanks in advance for your help |

PST Hi Betty, every so often I hear Eddie Fishers recordings. I would like to write to him if possible. We met at a book signing program about 10 years ago. I walk into the location where Mr. Fisher was sitting and actually singing along to the recordings that were playing on a speaker system. He was alone and I said hello, and we talked for a while. I beleive that Eddie Fisher (the singer) was one of the very best vocalist (and darn goodlook'in too). I met personally some of the greatest male vocalist in the business including FAS. even through Eddie made recording I still wish we could see him perform live. His was a voice admired by as you know 1,0000 of folks like me 70 yrs young. I told Eddie when he was getting into a lemo in Manhattan, I asked for his autograph, and stupidity I burned his hand with my cigaretee. How dumb of me. He said how did I react, I said you don't, he laughed and appoligized after ten years had past. Really, I like the guy, as a person, and we was gifted with in my opinion a marvelous voice. I wish him well and he and his family well be in my prayers. sincerely, Bruce Marchetta. |

PST Hi there, anyone have any idea how I could get a message to Eddie Fisher? Sounds nuts but it isn't. My next door neighbour recently told me he talked for hours to Eddie Fisher during war time over their radios during night shifts! Crazy but true!!! He would love to 'talk' with him again. These guys are getting older now, it would be a nice thought? |

PST Hi all of you Eddie Fisher fans! I am too. I am 55 and didn't really listen to Eddie until I heard him sing on Youtube, singing a Jolson medley on the Dean Martin show. I have since read both his biographies and while it was fascinating reading about the fabulous wealth, famous people, and beautiful women, I couldn't help feeling sorry for Eddie. How does one prepare for such success at such an early age? Look at Mike Tyson and so many others. Anyway i was also sad to hear of Betty Lin's death. She seemed such a positive force at the end of "Been There, Done That". Has anyone in this group spoken or received any mail from Eddie on how he's doing these days? |

PST Hi Derrick, That was nice that you spent some time with Eddie, when he needed someone. I am sure he would be happy to hear from you. The only way you could get his address is to write to his fan club president. She could pass a letter along to him. He still receives lots of mail from his fans, even though he is no longer singing. He does not have an e-mail, so the only way to write would be to his home address. |

PST Hi Betty In the late 50's I was a Metro Police Constable in London.it was at the time of Eddie's divorce from Debbie Renolds. He was having sleepless nights. He spent almost an entire night shift walking my beat with me. I was curious as to if he would remember. Have you an E-mail address so that I may ask him.Thanks Derrick |

I can suggest you get in touch with the fan club president, or if you would like to join the fan club, it may be possible to get Eddie's address and you can write him. He is retired and he lives in San Francisco. If you would like her address, you can let me know and write me at my personal e-mail address, which I will give you. |

This is not so easy when you live in the UK. We do have one thing in common - same age, but he sings better than I. Any help would be most appreciated. Rich |

PST Hi Norman, I belong to Eddie's fan club. I have my e-mail address on one of these messages on this board. We may have seen Eddie at the same time. I saw him in Montreal in 1987, can't remember the name of the club. Anyway, he lives in San Francisco now. His last wife Betty died a few years ago. You can write me if you want any information on how to get in touch with Eddie. Eddie recently attended an open house in Los Angeles with his two children by Connie Stevens and spent some time with them and his grandchildren, |

PST I,ve always been a BIG Fan of Eddie Fisher, I remember listening to his remarkable voice back in the early 50's, and have many records by him. Recently I came across an old LP record, and was amazed at how wonderful that voice was and still is. I saw him in Montreal Que, Canada once at a Dinner Show, that was in the late 70's early 80's, I was about 6 feet from him, so I was glad about that. Is there any way I could possibly contact him and speak with him? so I can personally congratulate him on his Artistry! Does he live in New York? or Calif. I eagerly look forward to your reply. Thank you so much for this opportunity to speak about him. God Bless Eddie. Norman |

PST Eddie Fisher is one of the best singers of all time,no I play his cds as much as possible. I just wish that I had had the money in my younger days, living in England to buy the old records. The good thing I was able to listen to them on a "pirate radio station.I had heard Eddie had been ill so I sent letters to Connie Stevens, Joely Fisher and Carrie Fisher.. NO REPLY. I had heard that Eddie was living in Haiwaii, I'd love his address if anyone has it.I was wondering if we all could get together and call our local radio stations on his birthday and have a Eddie Fisher day. |

Glad to hear you are playing Eddie's CDs every day. I listen to him a lot too, love to hear his voice. He seems to be doing well for his age, but he is no longer singing, sad to say. |

PST Hi Betty, I am so glad to hear from you. I sent you an email at the above Yahoo address, but Yahoo sent it back as undeliverable. It said the address was disabled or discontinued. Please give me a correct address. I am anxious to talk to you, and I am so glad to hear about Eddie's health. You can reach me through Ebay. My user name on Ebay is "belrimusic". I sell musical instruments. If you do a search under my user name, click on any of my listings, and you can email me by clicking on "ask seller a question". Once we make contact I will give you my private email address. Hope to hear from you soon. I will check back here tomorrow to see if you have another email address for me. I will also keep trying this address in case it was just a fluke that I didn't get through the first time. Thanks, Mary Anne. |

I will keep checking the board. Mary Anne, I have tons of picture of Eddie, several of Eddie and myself. I could send them to you in an e-mail. I know what you mean about when he sang to you, he has done that many times, and I wish I had pictures of it, but I do have pictures of Eddie and I together. He has moved, but he still lives in San Francisco. He is NOT in a wheelchair. And his health is not bad considering his age. Hope to hear from you. Betty |

PST Betty, I want to talk to you very badly. I have heard Eddie is in a wheel chair and that his health is not good. I sure hope this is not true. I sent him a letter to see how he was doing but he has not answered yet. In the past, when I sent him letters, he always answered, so I am worried about him. I found a person that was a relative of Eddie's who is selling a lot of Eddies stuff, pictures, awards, and personal things, like a gold watch he gave his father that is inscribed by Eddie. I have already notified that family that I am interested. Perhaps you are too. I was never a fan club member but no one could have loved him more than I did. This sounds silly, but I still love him. I have all his CD's, and I play them constantly. They always make me smile. I remember that night in Atlantic City when he sang to me, I was about 40 or so, and he was about 57 or so, he stared deep into my eyes, never blinking through the whole song. I wish I could have had a picture of that. I live in California, and I had gone back to Atlantic City just to see him. I am amazed to hear that he still has a fan club and I would like to know more about that. I would like to give you my email address or phone number, but I don't want to give it to the world here. Have you got any ideas? Mary Anne |

PST I am a big fan of singer Eddie Fisher. I found this page by putting Eddie's name in Google. I loved reading Elsie and Mary Anne's comments about Eddie. But this is the singer Eddie Fisher they are talking about. I agree with them about Eddie. Elsie, I could give you Eddie's address so you could write and tell him about your admiration for him. Mary Anne, it would be nice to talk to you about Eddie. I have seen him numerous times and met him many times after his shows. Have several photos taken with him. I admire him too. I have all of his videos and CDs. And Mary Anne, I belong to Eddie's fan club, and I could tell you what he is doing these days. I wish there was a way to get in touch with you and Elsie. I am not familiar with this Eddie Fisher, but I do know about him since I keep getting information on him when I search for the singer Eddie Fisher. |

PST I first met Eddie Fisher in Boston just before he went into the Army. It was at the radio station WMEX. He walked in as I was dedicating a song to some friends and I didn't scream just let out a little squeak. He was so handsome and was my dream. When he went to autographed his picture for me- he asked my name. I just stared into his eyes, and in the background one of my friends said-her name is Elsie- you know Moo Moo the cow. I was so embarressed and wanted to die. He signed my picture and later he case over to me, put his arm around my shoulder, hugging me closer and passed a folded piece of paper to me. He wrote me a poem. It said -Here's to Elsie who's not a cow- but moo moo anyhow. and signed his name. My friends wanted one too and he said no and hugged me again. Eddie Fisher knew how I felt and he had compassion for me. I have the greatest admiration for him and wish that one day I could tell him that ,not only was he the greatest singer - he was a great gentleman. I love Eddie Fisher. |

PST I am sure I am one of, if not the biggest, Eddie Fisher fan ever. I still think he is one of the greatest singers ever. I also love Mario Lanza. I have all of Eddie's albums, have seen him perform 3 times, and at one of those performances, he picked me out of the audience to sing too. It was the thrill of my life. I understand he is no longer singing, which I find very sad. If there is anyone out there with any information about him these days, let's here from you. |

PST I First heard about this artist back in the early 7o's. I have followed his work over the years and find him to be one of the great guitarist of all times. I had the great honor of meeting him resently at a CD signing in St Louis. I was blown away at the amount of people that stood in line to get there CD signed But It was worth the wait, Mr. Fisher stayed past the time of the signing to acommadate all that came.I love his work and was very happy to see the new Release on Verve Records on an old favorite, The Next One Hundred Years on CD. I also have his 42nd Street CD on his label. Keep up the goog work. a fan always |
