| Ah,
the beginnings of New Wave. The Cars were one of the best New Wave
groups around. Ric Ocasek's flat baritone, Greg Hawke's cheesy keyboards, Ben Orr's good looks (and voice to match) . . . all the elements for originality and success present in their debut disc. |

| My
favourite Cars album, this one rocks from the get go. Great songs,
fantastic hooks, and a great marriage of art and commerically successful music. A definite must have for any record collection. |

| I
love this album for the fact that The Cars were flying in the face
of convention and did what they wanted to do. Commerical suicide to be sure, but artistically it was wonderful. Very futuristic and unlike anything they've done before. |

||||||
| Because
of the commercial lambasting they got for Panorama, The Cars
decided to go back to their old formula. Trouble was, they forgot what that was and ended up embarking on the road to Top 40 'success' with this record. Overall, not a bad batch of songs; it just lacks the excitement of the first two. |

Hello

| An
unusual album. Commercially successful, it followed the formula but overall
it just didn't have the punch as their first two albums had. |
