I've just been watching a bunch of live Cars videos and they are such a great live band. In that late 70s/early 80s era, there was so much amazing new wave/post punk coming out of the UK that it was easy to overlook the pop genius of our boys from Boston. But they were brilliant, and their songs sound just as current and awesome today as they did then--not dated at all. Benjamin Orr truly was one of rock's most gorgeous men--I had such a massive crush on him in middle school and high school when most of their great albums were coming out. I hated those stupid teen fanzines like Tiger Beat, but if Benjamin was on the cover, I'd buy it just to be able to gaze adoringly at his picture for hours upon end. Such a talented and good-looking man--and I'm a sucker for blondes and rooster shag cuts. (The Police were my other Tiger Beat cover stars.) It was so different back then when it came to being a rock'n'roll fan--no computers with social media and KZbin to provide you with such constant and instant access to your rock idols. They retained more of an air of mystery and cool because they were more untouchable back then. You really had to hunt down stuff on your favorite rock stars, and you bought every album and 45--none of this streaming a "Car's station" on Pandora, or buying a single for $.99 on iTunes that lives on your smartphone. Nope--you went to Tower and got the album, and then had all that awesome large-format album art, lyric sheets, and if you were lucky, a gatefold or a poster inside. I still have my embarrassingly massive vinyl collection--I guess I'm turning into one of those old farts!

Of course not - every fan knows he's a source of great strength and a key to their success! And it's not just the solos -- everything he does through the whole song is important. Ric adds his own thing on guitar, too. Elliot did a lot of the rhythm playing, but Ric has a cool style, and wrote some good riffs too. A great guitar team.

Just as watersreet68 mentioned I just now have rediscovered the Cars. Call em new wave, call em rock or whatever,for my money they were definitely one of the best and most talented bands ever! They were sorely under rated and deserve to be in the ROCK AND ROLL HALL OF FAME! RIP BEN ORR

So many great musicians including Hawke on keyboards. Another musician who gave the Cars their unique and very recognizable sound

You are right! This is the Benjamin at his absolute best! He was stunningly, heart-achingly beautiful. Perfection. How could so many wonderful elements be so harmoniously arranged into one human being? And that touches on the physical beauty. His stage outfit was striking to this day, his hair looking its absolute best. His stage presence: mesmerizing. His voice was one of the best for it had range and that special timbre and tonality that few vocalists have but you know it because it touches something deep and primal inside your body. His musical vibrations resonated with your inner core. Other vocalists with this extra something are John Wetton of Asia (deceased), Justin Hayward of Moody Blues, David Coverdale of Deep Purple and White Snake, to name a few. It is true that everyone has a special connecting point where this synchronicity happens, so while these vocalists have that special depth that emotionally satisfies many, some may be left feeling nothing. Like I said, it is a primal, synchronistic; almost inexplicable thing but you know it when you feel it. Ben touches millions of men and woman with his lovely spirit, stunning physicality and super talent.

Way ahead of their time, music still stands the test, just as great live as on the vinyl!
