As a dear friend of Del's who travelled around Australia, that last song is more than an omen that we should have seen. Could we have helped him? He was unhappy that the British invasion had hit record sales. He also did that last concert live in Sydney. He wanted it filmed. For someone that would scream at the control room if the lights were white or bright, and then this? There is a reason he wanted for us to treasure. A final farewell. WHY did we not see that? I was there that night it was recorded. Spent the day with him before it. I will always feel the pain that I, at least, should have seen something. Especially someone that had know him for 30 years.

When I hear these songs it takes me back to the early sixties when I was 14 years old and his distinctive voice would blast from the loud speakers of the open air swimming pool and the fairground rides. He brought joy to so many people who could relate to his lyrics. What a tragedy he couldn't feel the gratitude of a generation who loved his music.

Del is a legend that was way ahead of his time. He never got the dues he so deserved in life. What a shame he could not out run the past because that's all people wanted to hear. This man was a musical genius! He had more talent in his little finger than most could only dream of having. I wish he could have gotten what he so deserved! He was beyond talented! Only all these years latter can some people look past Runaway to his latter songs and finally see what the world lost Feb,8th 1990. I pray he is now at peace. The world missed out on his true,special gift simply because they wanted to stay in the past. Del deserved much more than that! I will love Del forever!

Del was such an underrated artist. I know how bad depression,feelings of insecurity and suicidal thoughts are. I deal with them every day. Being a musician myself(but nowhere near as good as Del was) I can completely relate to him. Unfortunately,he became totally overcome by the hell he lived in and we lost a very talented man. My heart goes out to his entire family and fans. God rest your soul,Del. May your music live on forever,brother.

All I can say is on my end as a true fan - I truly loved Dels music n while he was here,he graced our stages and radio's with his talent and made us get up and dance n sing!! So,he was an Angel in disguise for me. Not only a handsome man who was responsible for so many songs that other bands used to get famous from. If you look up his tunes,you'll find out they were used for some of The Beatles songs in their past. And alot of other artists ike,Roy Orbison and Tom Petty..on and on and on....

He had a big Booming voice, powerful , yet very melodic, the crowds loved him. His songs are iconic. I've even read that he was always afraid of going broke, but with all his hits that was never going to be a reality. Why, why, I do know that Prozac was partly responsible. He was on it for a while during the time of his death and couldn't sleep with it .I was on it too. Insomnia and depression are a toxic cocktail . I know his last wife was talking about them suing the drug company that manufactured Prozac. I never heard the outcome. RIP Del .. you're in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame . I wish you could have held out a little longer my brother . Your really missed !

a sad end to a true legend...rip del
i am crying for you my dear Del Shannon..
I will never believe he committed suicide because nobody like him. This guy was adored by millions. I wish he would have been part of the Willburys. There is a few people who I felt bad when they passed. Elvis Del Shannon and Ricky Nelson are just a few.
A young and up coming song writing duo John Lennon and Paul McCartney were introduced to the US Billboard Charts in 1963 when Del recorded their song "From Me To You". Del was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1999.
I'm so sad. What a great man. Loved his music. 🙏 RIP
Sometimes you don't know what's inside of them and they feeling! All kinds of thoughts! Sorry he went out like that! What a wonderful artist and underrated!RIP DEL!!
God Bless you DEL SHANNON REST IN PEACE ✌ all ways your music 🎶🎶🎶 lives On Fab SINGER still play to day a fan from England xxx
love del shannon his music is amazing your music will live on del
before the beatles happened i was totally into del shannon. what a fine songwriter! he has a great guitar sound on that last album (rock on) and the choruses are great. my favorite tracks are 'callin out my name' & 'i fall to pieces'. total heartbreakers...
What a super star….now singing in a heavenly choir🙏🏼
Oh Del, it still hurts to see this and know that you´re gone, love you always,caro
Breaks my heart.... Del Shannon was incredibly talented!!!! Was compared to Roy Orbison with his voice.... So sad
It sincerely is a crying shame that Del suffered the way that he did... its like you can accomplish so much, but when depression takes over you, you never see that success. You never are truly satisfied with yourself.. i can relate to a degree..
What can you say about Del Shannon.Simply the best

RIP DEL We Still Listening To You 2022
so sad we will never know why something troubled him I loved del always will a legend so talented why why did it happen rip del loved always
Rest easy my friend...Dell Shannon was big in the uk in the early 60s for sure...
came on man, I am crying right now. I got so sad. I am 30 and from Iran! but I love him so much.
He had a big Booming voice, powerful , yet very melodic, the crowds loved him. His songs are iconic. I've even read that he was always afraid of going broke, but with all his hits that was never going to be a reality. Why, why, I do know that Prozac was partly responsible. He was on it for a while during the time of his death and couldn't sleep with it .I was on it too. Insomnia and depression are a toxic cocktail . I know his last wife was talking about them suing the drug company that manufactured Prozac. I never heard the outcome. RIP Del .. you're in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame . I wish you could have held out a little longer my brother . Your really missed !

yes, suicide is no stranger to my family but i do know all drugs have side effects but prozac along with other psych drugs can bring a person to commit suicide... whatever the case such a shame.
I loved Del Shannon's music. Loved him so much. He was an amazing singer/musician. Pray he knows in heaven that his music means so much to all of us. He was so special.
thanks for this bit of history. del and roy gone forever but never forgotten....paul
I saw him many times in manchester during the 70s ,it was my friends who wanted to see him not me ,but when i saw his presence and heard his voice i was hooked ,he always gave a great performance ,and you could tell he was a good guy in pain with something ,and wgen i met him at the bar late one evening and he had a little talk to me one to one ,i knew he was not just a great act ,but a good man also ,glad to see some many performa ces on you tube

Thanks Del, for being an indelible peace of the American Rock.
Love his music
No Doubts that this a "shitty" report ! As life-long fan of Del+admirer of his talents, I must say that I still have great doubts in his "suicide" ,depending on the "reason" that his career was "down" !! Especialy in "that times" with having a new (its filled up with new hits!!) album out,replacing Roy at the "Travellin Willbs.",working together with great Jeff Lynn+Tom Petty,mentioned in the press(even here in fucking Germany!!) + so on, it was more a "climbing up" again !!!
Absolutely adored Del Shannon still play his music to this day 😢
Del was the last Traveling Wilbury. How good would you have to be to get into that group as Roy Orbison's replacement? Thanks Del, we're still listening.
del is number one to me love you del
R. I. P. Del Shannon ❤️
Love this man and his music!
Dick Clark hit the nail on the head with me as a pastor that preaches funerals! The preacher said he was happy but he wasn’t , makes me examine myself
RIP Del
What a shame he died he was so good. Love his voice wrote a a lot of good songs he was a star...

This is the first time a ever heard the song "Walk Away ". Wished they would release it. It is a great song.
**I know how it feels to realize 'your best days are behind you now' and you must admit to yourself "I'm old and don't have what I used to have and I'm afraid of the future"** (that 'fear' kills you...it makes a mockery of all you did before, and convinces you "You missed your chance" somehow)
I Gave Charles Drop Down And Get Me , Walk away and Rock On Every Song on his Last Love Hook Line and Sinker Charles Was Working On country music when I first met him and I told him you're not a country guy you are a rock and roller it's true he was my sponsor for 14 years and AAA I think he had a year more than me I send will be celebrating 40 Years of sobriety and I owe most of it to Charles I found him a studio in the Backwoods Saugus California and I always talk to him about music I always told him that every album he did he had to put at least one oldies on it and every song I told him to do he would do I loved him like a dad my favorite uncle a brother he was an amazing man we used to split BLTs and hash browns at the weigh station and at the health store on Lyons in Newhall I always knew that I was going to do something with music. So is always good friends with his family and ended up the last year's with his daughter Jodi that I love with all my heart and still miss her as much as I miss anyone including Charles I could tell story after Story but everything I said was true I remember after drop down and get me come out he said Bobby we have a bullet it was 30 on the charge and I was thinking well it's great but my name's not on anything but I was so happy to see how he was I gave him all that and he gave me much more I have my own All Star Band now and been riding for the last 12 years with Steve Miller's drummer Gary mallaber Eddie money's bass player Ralph Carter I started playing with Ray Charles when Ray got sick send Brad rabuchin that was with Ray Charles for Last 5 Years join my band and Big L Walker from The Temptations and Four Tops... I got to hire Mike Finnegan from Electric ladyland now it's Bonnie red and Johnny Rochelle that produced Bonnie raitt's album of the year 2004 to help me with my CD it should be out this summer 2018 not to show that I'm just not kidding around I've been playing guitar for 55 years and though Del showed me a few tricks I was already playing guitar but held back no one really knows my life and what I've been through myself I just want to rock and roll till the day I die and I'll Always Love Charles and Jody Westover till the day I die I love them with all my heart and soul...

Bobby Hart thanks for your interesting comments, any true fan of rock and roll would I'm sure still miss Del, odd isn't it that today many of the old rockers from that era are still rocking out and still sounding great even though many have passed on, Del had many demons I guess? booze being one, but under all that I learned from family and friends he was a very decent guy and he was always polite and courteous the 4 times I met him - died at 55 gee all those future songs and performances we've all lost since 1990 - what a waste - always in my thoughts!

His Country song ' In My Arms Again " was a would- be smash SMASH! & Shame on his Nashville Record Label company for not promoting it. It was our most requested song at KXOL Ft Worth & yet the record company just sat on their ass.
Prozac killed del Shannon
The only person that knew the answers, took them with him to the grave. Everything else is guess work and that's all it will ever be. So many people make assumptions that it is to do with the fame.

Was he still drinking at the time? Knowing 'anti'depressants I'm sure that would have made him worse.

This entertainment news magazine was produced and televised in the Miami Fort Lauderdale area on wsvn channel 7.. and yes, the reporter is Penny Daniels...who loved to sensationalize virtually anything for ratings. Like many who used to work for wsvn. Although some say that the practice is still common on that network
Can't begin to say how much I couldn't stand Penny Daniels and the entire Channel 7 news platform. A true embarrassment how they ask a "probing" lead question only to answer it by dubbing in his song lyric As for Del, a sad ending for a all-time rock and roller. RIP Del...

Always loved him ! i think what killed him is this time of year 2000 and more when real music died... There is no music nowadays...thats why people knowing that listen only music of the 50'..60's..70's...
How sad he had it all.
My heart bleeds
Love you del 🌹

Call it a a cold case please

I dont think of his death in the traditional sense, but, foul play yes. I dont think it was planned and there was not suicide note. His wife hit the nail on the head. If you look at the combination of Prozac and alcohol it can be a deadly combination and it was - pharmaceutical industry foul play.
