Editorial Review:

Amazon.com:
The Cars' blend of New Wave experimentation and trad-rock values made for nearly ubiquitous radio presence in the late '70s and early '80s. Often jumpily ambivalent and marvelously pop-wise in the same moment, Ric Ocasek captured the zeitgeist for people to whom even Talking Heads didn't matter much. Kicking off with one of the all-time great singles, "Just What I Needed," then winding its way through seven more years of singles including the then-brand new "Tonight She Comes," Greatest Hits is one, um, well-oiled pleasure machine. --Rickey Wright

The Cars: Greatest Hits

INTRODUCTION:
The Cars were one of the finest classic rock bands ever. With their mixture of rock and roll and new wave pop elements, they won over a number of fans during their decade or so together. There are countless compilations out there for the band. Let's take a look at Greatest Hits.

OVERVIEW:
Complete Greatest Hits spans the Cars career 1978-1987. It features 20 tracks.

REVIEW:
I love the music of the Cars, they're one of my favorite bands of all time. But this compilation shows its age. Nearly every track on here (plus a whole lot more) is on the newer Complete Greatest Hits compilation. The omissions on here are far too great in number.

- Now surpassed by "Complete Greatest Hits"
Making a case for The Cars as brilliant singles band, this 1985 "Greatest Hits" is 13 songs that are all incredible. From 1978 till they dissolved in 1987, this Boston band helped to define what American New Wave music sounded like. A touch of Roxy Music, a dash of David Bowie, a really strong helping of melody and top that off with two solid lead vocalists in Ric Ocasek and the late Ben Orr, and you had the formula for the albums from "The Cars" classic to the hit packed "Heartbeat City." This CD was released while "heartbeat City" was still in its phenomanal commercail run, thus missed the singles from "Door To Door" (which is to say, not much).

As brilliant as the debut was, it is represented CD on this collection by three were singles, with "Just What I Needed" being one of the ... Read More
