At No. 7, iconic pop/rock band the Cars return to the Billboard 200 with a new studio album for the first time since 1987 as "Move Like This" debuts with 36,000. This is the Ric Ocasek-led group's fifth top 10 album. They previously notched top 10s with "Candy-O" (No. 3, 1979), "Panorama" (No. 5, 1980), "Shake It Up" (No. 9, 1981) and "Heartbeat City" (No. 3, 1984). The Cars' last studio effort, "Door to Door," peaked at No. 26 in 1987, while they last visited the chart in 2002 with "Complete Greatest Hits" (No. 144).

Only 36,000 copies sold. With the bar that low, Journey having a top ten album looks like easy money.

This new album fits right in with the rest of their catalog. They didn't reinvent themselves or change anything just to be different. If you are a Cars Fan, this exactly what you would expect them to sound like if this came out in 1987.

Well done, guys.

I don't know about the new Stevie Nicks cd. I haven't even given it a spin yet. My sister told me it blows.
