Another of my favorite bands has lost its front man. Ric Ocasek was found dead at 75 in his home.

Stepbrother grew up and just near 50.. not super super skinny or black hair..actually hardly any hair.. lol I didn't realize he was that old either. He is the same age as my parents. Sad to see him pass away. The cars is still on my play list. After Brittney Spears shaved her head and people were talking about her, I always thought of the song "Who's gonna drive you home?"

I just moved into a new home recently and we had our stuff in a storage POD delivered. I unpacked a box of my old albums from the 70's and 80's, and just this week saw my Eddie Money and Cars albums amongst them. I need to get a turntable and go down memory lane.

DH and I loved, loved, loved The Cars. All of their stuff was a big part of the musical backdrop of our dating years.

The Cars was the first album I purchased at Licorice Pizza. I couldn’t pick a favorite , that whole album was great.

Very sad to hear this. I remember liking The Cars too. They weren't part of my era of music-that was the 1970's when I was in high school, but I still really liked their music.
