| For the neebs that think 21st century new wave-synth-rock noveau is the real deal, get a grip on this bad boy from '78.
When I was 15, this was the shit & deservedly so.
The wandering synths, declinated power-pop riffing & rock sensibilities of The Cars awakened my generation to a whole new sound.
This was 1978, long before the new-romantic fetish and neo-metal retort. This was honest stuff and deservedly regarded as so. When those of us in our early forties hear it, we experience a somewhat romantic sensation akin to the flowering of youth.
Grab it and enjoy.
