The Cars is the debut studio album by American rock band the Cars, released on June 6, ... AllMusic [4] The Encyclopedia of Popular Music [12] Q [13] Record Mirror
The discography of the American rock band the Cars includes seven studio albums, eight compilation albums, four video albums and 26 singles. Originating in Boston in 1976, [1] the band consisted of singer/guitarist Ric Ocasek, singer/bassist Benjamin Orr, guitarist Elliot Easton, keyboardist Greg Hawkes, and drummer David Robinson.
Donald A. Guarisco of AllMusic described the song as "one of the Cars' finest experimental tracks," noting that it "sounds like a new wave update of Eno-era Roxy Music." [2] Classic Rock History critic Brian Kachejian rated "Moving in Stereo" combined with "All Mixed Up" as released on the album as the Cars' all-time greatest song. [5]
The band's second album, Candy-O, was released in June 1979 and eclipsed the success of The Cars, peaking at No. 3 on the Billboard 200 album chart, 15 spots higher than the debut album. Featuring a cover created by the famed Playboy artist Alberto Vargas , the album featured the band's first top-20 single " Let's Go ".
Donald Guarisco, also of AllMusic, wrote "One of their strongest tracks [on Heartbeat City with experimental roots] was 'Hello Again,' a stylish new wave rocker with plenty of experimental touches." [2] Guarisco added that it "represents the Cars striking a unique balance between their gift for pop hooks and their love of experimental sounds." [2]
The Cars were an American rock band who recorded 89 songs during their career, of which included 86 originals and 3 covers.Emerging from the new wave scene in the late 1970s, the group consisted of singer, rhythm guitarist, and songwriter Ric Ocasek, bassist and singer Benjamin Orr, lead guitarist Elliot Easton, keyboardist Greg Hawkes, and drummer David Robinson.
[4] AllMusic critic Greg Prato called it one of the "lesser-known compositions [that] are just as exhilarating" as the "familiar hits" on The Cars. [3] Ultimate Classic Rock critic Dave Swanson rated it as the 5th best Benjamin Orr Cars song, saying that it shares the "same great pop spirit" as the Everly Brothers' song with the same title. [5]
