My fav The Cars tune: Vte

More sad news, and this time, closer to home: longtime community member Rovermark . . .

. . . passed away last Tuesday night from the same illness that took Eddie Money's life - esophageal cancer. I had an image of him in my files until recently, but deleted it before learning he was gravely ill. If anyone has an image of Mark Mathews, pleas... 

That is very sad.

I’m sure I interacted with Rovermark at some point over the years. Hopefully someone will be able to source a picture. John

He was very fond of you, Nicolas. I'll try to get a photo . . .

Noooooooooo... Now I am very sad. I am a big fan of Ric Ocasek, his solo adventures with several super great albums and of course, hid career with the Cars... A band I discovered in 1978.

With this song: And this one, But the whole album is top. Since then I followed them, and him, of course with some jewels such as: Aaah, this one... And this one... And this one: This one is also linked the some great moments of my life... I grew with Ric... 

Aaah, that one...

First time I listen to some of them, I really liked Hello Darkness, I've listened to it three times so far. Thanks for sharing. Vte

Tonight’s agenda.

His music always made me happy. But I think I’ll be sad tonight. ...  

Agreed...I should have mentioned his solo career, which gave us many great songs.

Love their music. Who's gonna DRIVE me home now?

The six first albums: I stopped there: ...  

For some reason I'm drawn to Candy-O, even if not my favorite album. :)

The Cars always had beautiful women in their videos...including of course his later wife, Paulina Poriskova
