The Cars

Sounds like they never left for 20+ years. This new song has really got that same vintage sound.

Definitely an 80's sound and definitely the Cars sound, but I didn't like Ocasek's sound on that song at all.

Not bad, but I wish it sounded more like 70's Cars.

This reminds me of Revelation; the legacy sound but something's just not right. Like it's missing some oomph.

It's missing Ben Orr. Always liked his songs better.

I totally agree. I miss his voice and talent as well. The Cars are not the same, but will be listening to the new release.

Just heard Blue Tip so far, but the New Cars with Todd Rundgren blew this away even though they only did a few songs:

Wish I could find the studio versions... oh well.
