Vinyl LP pressing. The Cars was released on June 6, 1978 on Elektra Records. The album,
which featured the three charting singles "Just What I Needed, " "My
Best Friend's Girl, " and "Good Times Roll, " as well as an abundance of
radio hits, is recognized as one of the band's greatest albums. The
album sold six million copies and appeared on the Billboard 200 album
chart for 139 weeks.

The
Cars' 1978 self-titled debut, issued on the Elektra label, is a genuine
rock
masterpiece. The band jokingly referred to the album as their "true
greatest-hits album," but it's no exaggeration -- all nine tracks are
new wave/rock classics, still in rotation on rock radio. Whereas most
bands of the late '70s embraced either punk/new wave or hard rock, the
Cars were one of the first bands to do the unthinkable -- merge the two
styles together. Add to it bandleader/songwriter Ric Ocasek's
supreme pop sensibilities, and you had an album that appealed to new
wavers, rockers, and Top 40 fans. One of the most popular new wave
songs
ever, "Just What I Needed," is an obvious highlight, as are such
familiar hits as "Good Times Roll," "My Best Friend's Girl," and "You're
All I've Got Tonight." But like most consummate rock albums, the
lesser-known compositions are just as exhilarating: "Don't Cha Stop,"
"Bye Bye Love," "All Mixed Up," and "Moving in Stereo," the latter
featured as an instrumental during a steamy scene in the popular movie
Fast Times at Ridgemont High. With flawless performances, songwriting,
and production (courtesy of Queen alumni Roy Thomas Baker), the Cars'
debut remains one of rock's all time classics. ~ Greg Prato, AllMusic
