    Sad news. Absolutely love him as a musician, song writer, vocalist, producer, and overall great human being.

    RIP Rik Ocasek. I Listen To Cars music weekly and now it will have a sad meaning. With Ben gone in 2000, these original members have entered the spiritual realm of passed rock stars. RIP Eddie Money. .

    I always enjoyed Rick Ocasek and the Cars as they had a unique style to them. RIP

    Imagine Weezer's Blue album without Ric producing it. You don't have to imagine long, as every other Weezer album is a great example of exactly what would happen.

    I'm listening to it now. Sounds like a bunch of noise.

    Well that piece of trivia just blew my mind.

    Only In Dreams is probably in my top ten.
