He was honored as an Apollo theater (living) Legend The program was taped in front of a standing room only audience for the 2007 season to be televised nationally as well as some international markets. Eddie was introduced as a child prodigy by the new Apollo television show hostess - none other than the great and funny Whoopi Goldberg.

Eddie regularly performs aboard cruise ships and has actually performed on over 600 international cruises.
Here are a couple of guestbook entries to share: "We just returned from our 25th Anniversary Alaskan Cruise on the Sun Princess, on which we were privileged and blessed to experience your show and your awesome talent - twice! Thank you for your fabulous performance, wonderful spirit, and for being a major contributor to some of the best memories of our anniversary celebration. We hope to be `singing` as happily about each other, as you do about your wife Sheila, when we are at 41 years of marriage! We're certainly heading in the right direction - as we are more in love now than ever!" You're an excellent example of a man walking his talk in faith as you touch so many with your gifts of music, compassion, and fun! Thank you for touching our lives in such a special way. You're the best!
Blessings to you and yours
Katy & Paul
Hi Eddie,
Man was it a pleasure to work with you onboard the Sun Princess (June 24 -August 12). Night after night you continued to amaze me and the band with your golden voice. (I still laugh at the fact that you don't ever warm up.) Like you said to me backstage...'If I can't sing by now, I need to get in another business...'
I am now back home in Dallas enjoying the family and playing some jazz. Thanks again for your friendship. I hope we work together again.
Sincerely, Tim Pottorff
