80s Rock Legends Son Continues His Legacy With Iconic Song Cover: Youre Doing Your Dad Proud

‘80s Rock Legend Eddie Moneymay have passed away in 2019, but his son Dez Money is keeping his musical legacy alive and well. The 33-year-old has followed in dad’s footsteps into music, becoming an established artist and producer on his own.

    Dez captioned the video, “Covering my dad’s song ‘Shakin’’ live at the Whiskey A Go-Go in LA. Used to tour as a family and since he passed away we are now continuing the legacy.”

    It’s a stunning performance that highlights Dez Money’s voice and keeps dad’s spirit alive.
