[Tiggi]

The dubut is my preferred Cars album, although Heartbeat City is an amazing piece of studio work.

Mrs Tiggi used to play Cars albums endlessly when we first met, and it put me off for a while, but I'm over it now.

At times a great band...

THE CARS

Candy-O is a very close second for me, but the S/T album was amazingly fresh, the song list reads like a "Best Of" and the track "Moving in Stereo" is one of my all-time favorite productions - still blows my mind what The Cars were able to accomplish in the studio in 1978.

[Music Head]

I'm Not The One that always wants to Shake It Up, so Think It Over, and just Maybe Baby, at last, This Could Be Love, because Since You're Gone, we both know that if I jump in my Cruiser, you being a Victim Of Love, is just A Dream Away.

The Cars gets my vote.

Sidenote: I recently acquired 'Shake it Up' on vinyl and I'm super excited about that!

[JTRiff]

1st album was OK, forgot they had done others.

[Houston DJ]

I love two songs on the 1978 "Cars" album- "Good Times Roll" and "My Best Friend's Girl"

[BrilliantDisguise]

Their first album...The Cars.
