  7. The Cars, Panorama, 1980 on Elektra

    This was the third studio LP from Boston band The Cars, situated between Candy-O and Shake It Up. Includes "Touch and Go."

Not the first Cars LP you should buy, but worth being in your collection if […]

  31. #CurrentlyReading This is a pretty good read if you're into #TheCars. Most everyone who had anything to do with the band is interviewed. Love the chapters about the early years when #RicOcasek + #BenjaminOrr were ambitious but kinda rootless and unfocused. Also some insights into the industry's transition from bloated 1970s arena rock to garish 1980s video rock. Ain't always pretty LOL! 🎡 🎢 πŸ“– πŸ‘ 😁 #GregHawkes #ElliotEaston #DavidRobinson #ClassicRock #Music #Books #Biographies #PublicLibrary
