Everyone seems to remember him from the 80's, but he also had a few hit songs in the 70's as well. Tunes like: "Hey Hey Julia/Sneaking Sally Through The Alley" & "Give Me An Inch", among others. He also formed the group Power Station with the remaining members of Duran Duran.
I recall seeing him in concert back in 1979 and it was one of the best shows I've ever seen.
R.I.P. Robert, you'll be missed.Comment

Damn. I played his Riptide tape in the '80's till it wore out.
Dude was sophisticated and definately not into the rock lifestyle.
I recently bought the second Power Station album. His voice hadn't lost any of it's smoothness over the years.
Sad to see him gone so early.

Robert Palmer was a dear friend of mine- Worked with him in the mid eighties whenever he came to Ohio he'd call and leave passes and tix for me.
Not only was he my hero growing up, he was a mentor.
I recall a time in 1989 when he played the Newport Music hall in Columbus- we went back to the Hyatt with his drunner Dony Wynn and his bass layer who used to play with marvin Gaye and had a blast. He would speak of his custom made suits he had flown in from Milan and his childhood in Malta.
he was also portrayed as a great family man which was shocking because he took his mistress on the road with him on all his US dates-
Oh well he was a guy after all.
My favorite albums by him were " Clues" " Riptide" "Sneaking Sally "
and Heavy Nova.
I am really bummed by this news and no he wasn't a coker- he was a "smoker"
In fact he introduced me to Dunhill cigarettes- now it's clear I need to stop smoking them - I don't wanna die at 54
:-((
RIP

Nowhere near the quality of the first album -Tony Thompson formerly of Chic playing drums was definitely the best pasrt of the band that man had a sound like I have never heard before
HEAVY funk drummer
and of course Nigel Rogers producing that hit record made it a smash.Comment

Damn, horrible news...
I loved when Palmer dubbed his music Heavy Nova, a combination of heavy metal and bassa nova....
He once mentioned in an interview that it was odd that he loved Megadeth and his kids didn'tComment

ELP was Carl Palmer, Robert Palmer the singer is the one that died - heart attack at age 54. Guess the countdown is on for me.Originally posted by charly

Damn it...it sucks when musicians and actors that you actually remember from your childhood (not re-runs) start dying like this. I remember singing along to 'Addicted to Love' using hairbrushes as microphones while babysitting my niece. Guess it's time for another reality check.
Does anyone out there know where the hell all the TIME is going?? I'm throwing down years a lot faster than I would like to. WTF.

I heard about it on the local noon news here in Seattle (Kirotv7)
What was kinda weird is that the news announcer added after she said he had died from a heart attack, that "He had just gotten a complete good bill of health from his doctor."
Hmmm...
