Eddy's music ranges from Caribbean Calypso, African rhythms, rock and roll, reggae and soul ... and some of his hits include "Baby Come Back", "Electric Avenue", "I Don't Wanna Dance" and the ever-popular "Gimme Hope Jo'anna".

Written in 1988, "Gimme Hope Joanna" was one of Grant's songs that contained strong political sentiment and it became an anti-apartheid anthem in South Africa despite being banned on state airwaves by Nationalist government.
