Robert Palmer died yesterday in Paris from a heart attack at the age of 54. Although Palmer’s most popular hits were during the ‘80s, including “Addicted to Love,” “I Didn’t Mean to Turn You On,” and “Simply Irresistible,” his work in the ’70s was also critically acclaimed albeit not a huge seller. He might be best known for his videos and singles during the ’80s, but his body of work was underrated in my opinion, more eclectic and genre-spanning than most people realize.
