Honestly didn’t think Ocasek was quite that old, was thinking more like 65... what a terrible weekend for music

The Cars first two albums came out while I was a rock DJ at Mizzou. Candy-O was a smash album with Vargas Girl art on the cover. You don't hear bands cover Cars tunes because the synth work is so elaborate and essential in re-creating the song. Ben Orr the bass player died from cancer almost 20 years ago. Ric helped produce other bands the last 20 years or so. He was by all accounts a super nice guy and one hell of a songwriter. RIP.

I saw them at Kemper. One of the best concerts I'd seen. Nothing flashy, just GREAT music. |

RIP Rick. One of my favorite 80s bands.

Grew up dating and mating to the Cars.

Bummer, the first concert I ever saw was the Cars. It's been a long time since Benjamin Orr died (the bass player and other frontman/singer) and now Ocasek is gone. Very sad indeed

I had no idea until now that The Cars released two more albums after Heartbeat City, including one in 2011 with the original members (minus Orr, of course). For some reason, I thought Heartbeat City was their swan song.
