RIC OCASEK – LEAD SINGER OF 'THE CARS' HAS DIED

Posted on by X-Timelord
Hello and Welcome Back…. Sad news

Lead singer of the 70s / 80s band ‘The Cars’ has died.

Ric Ocasek (Richard Theodore Otcasek) was the lead singer for most of the bands history which started around 1976 with Benjamin Orr (dec) swapping vocal duties

One of the Best 80s albums (in my opinion) was Rics 1986 solo album ‘This Side of Paradise’ which spawned the hit ‘Emotion in Motion’.

The other excellent albums that are similar are ‘The Cars – Heartbeat City’

  & Benjamin Orr – The Lace

All are highly recommended albums…

Ric was an amazing singer/ music producer/ musician. He was only 75 years young.

RIP

R3C OCASEK – THIS SIDE OF PARADISE

Posted on by X-Timelord
Hello and welcome back… Solo Album from ‘The Cars’ front-man ‘Ric Ocasek’

The good thing about certain 80s bands is that from time to time, the respective band members go it alone and give listeners a treat. Phil Collins was one of those, while not fronting Genesis, he often would release solo albums, so anyone who was into Genesis got a double treat, he also released albums that kinda sounded similar.

The Cars were another of those bands with Benjamin Orr and Ric Ocasek releasing solo albums that had similar sound to their main job… Its not ‘The Car’ but it close… Sort Of.

Released in 1986, This Side of Paradise spawned two singles, ‘Emotion in Motion’ and ‘True To You’

For me, my favorite track would be ‘Mystery’, with lush melodic synths, its a song i could listen to over and over…

TRACK LIST
 01. Keep On Laughin (4:42)
02. True To You (4:01)
03. Emotion In Motion (4:41)
04. Look In Your Eyes (5:59)
05. Coming For You (5:34)
06. Mystery (4:18)
07. True Love (4:25)
08. P.F.J. (3:39)
09. Hello Darkness (4:52)
10. This Side Of Paradise (8:28)
