        Now him and Benjamin Orr can make great melodies again.

        Loved The Cars first album … Definitely in my top 10 of BEST ALBUMS EVER !!!

        RIP

            That one hurts. The Cars were a great band.

              The Cars are one of those bands that I enjoyed at the time, but I have a new level of appreciation for as time has passed. Thanks for the tunes, Ric.

                I was surprised he was so old.

                That would make him like 35 years old when The Cars first album came out.

                  he was like 21 years older than his lovely wife. I think she was 20 when they cast her in their video and he started dating her. the life of a rock star
