{1a}"For Eddy" was inspired by a real person who was just as the song described, a one-armed piano player who drank too much and whose life didn't amount to much. But he earned a little money working at the Earl of Old Town, a folk music club in the heart of the [Old Town] area of Chicago. The dog was real too.
