THE DOOMSDAY DJ:
TUNES FOR THE POST APOCALYPSE
https://youtu.be/3dOx510kyOs
This week in 1978, The Cars self-titled LP debuted on the UK Albums Chart at #56 (December 2)
The Cars unique brand of synth-infused guitar-based power pop was a breath of fresh air on the charts around the world, and has proved to be timeless…
And this album is in the conversation as one of the best debut LPs of all time.
Guitarist Elliot Easton said:
“We used to joke that the first album should be called The Cars' Greatest Hits!
We knew that a lot of great bands fall through the cracks. But we were getting enough feedback from people we respected to know that we were on the right track."
Well it’s not far off a Greatest Hits album as it turns out, packed with songs like “Bye Bye Love”, “My Best Friend’s Girl”, “Just What I Needed”, “Good Times Roll”, and “Moving In Stereo”.
It went to #5 in New Zealand, #18 in the US, #29 in the UK, #35 in Australia, and #50 in Canada.
Rolling Stone ranked The Cars at #353 on its 2020 list of the "500 Greatest Albums of All Time".
