5W Wilson was playing it.  Would have to go dig through all my albums...think I might have it on vinyl.




@Greenway. Candy-O was a decent album

Candy Oh was a good album.

Ric also had a great solo album that maybe I'm the only on who ever heard it, This Side of Paradise.

After thinking about it, I probably didn't buy the first album...it was on the radio enough.  Pretty sure the only Cars album I bought was Candy-O.  Part of the reason was the classic Vargas album cover

40 years ago today Candyo10

The album cover was painted by artist Alberto Vargas, who was known for his paintings of pin-up girls that appeared in Esquire and Playboy magazines in the 1940s through the 1960s. The idea to hire Vargas came from drummer David Robinson, the band's artistic director and a collector of pin-ups. The 83-year-old Vargas had retired several years earlier but was persuaded to take the assignment by his niece, who was a fan of the Cars. The painting, depicting a woman sprawled across the hood of a car, was based on a photo shoot directed by Robinson at a Ferrari dealership. The model, coincidentally named Candy Moore (famous for having played Lucille Ball's onscreen daughter on The Lucy Show), briefly dated Robinson afterward.

Once a week, your vinyl must be getting worn by now. What turntable you use?

Porizkova, 53, revealed she and Ocasek, 74, have actually been separated for the past year, and that while photos of the family of four are still "happy family photos," they are no longer a couple.

okay, I'm back.

It's a Sony. I'm not sure of the technical specifications. I'm about the tunes. If I'm home, there's about a 90% chance there is an album being played.
