yes... RIP Eddie... Loved so many if his songs. Saw him in concert a million years ago. Awesome singer, song writer and showman! But the lyrics and music... wow! He will be greatly missed. :02:
 
Oh, man !!! Harkens back to the Golden Years of MTV, when they didn't show only shows about pregnant teenagers and young people sharing a house at the beach, and behaving like animals... :eek:

For you youngsters who may not know who Ric Ocasek was, here's one of my favorite vids !

R.I.P., Ric...

Gosh...this is just too much :puppy_dog_eyes: RIP Ric Ocasek.

Here is link to some of the Cars best hits and article. Every song brings back great memories of high school and early 20s. The Cars were just always on the radio when driving down the road with friends. I've loved music all my life, as I am sure you all have as well, but this time period was the golden age for me. And the sound of the Cars was so new and unique. I was blown away when I first heard them...Moving In Stereo! So sad to see such great song writers, singers and musicians passing away this year.. But at least their music will live on ... Thank you for the Awesome music Ric!

DBA,

Agree !!!

The Cars were the soundtrack of my divorce, and life, through the early 80's ! Keyboardist Benjamin Orr was a major player, too...died in 2000 ?

Here's another Cars song that's NOT "user friendly", but always intrigued me !

TSP-R : Is that bar in 5/4 time ? I remember trying to figure out the "Mission Impossible" theme, as a junior high trombone player !!! :D

"Play it by ear", we said !!! :D

Think you're right about the 5/4 time. I believe good Buddy Ian Anderson used that time on "Living in the Past"...

Yeap, "Stoplight", you have it right; as you mentioned you played the trombone in junior high so you do know about the patterns and accents of bars and beats in music. The song "Touch and Go" the drums and bass are played in 5\4 notation; on the other hand the vocals, guitars and keyboards are playing in the 4\4 measure. This song was a tough one to learn back in the day, nevertheless once you have both measures figured out it's just a matter of practicing practicing. Touch and Go it's one of those intriguing songs. Thanks for posting. Do you still play the trombone??

JFresno,

Yeah...Jethro Tull played some weird time signatures, too ! Guess that's why I always liked them...thanks for bringing that in (and the nod to my sig !) :D

TSP-R : Thanks for the post ! So the keyboard is in 4/4 ? Always wondered how Orr came in out of nowhere...:rolleyes:

No, I no longer play trombone...college was ROTC and engineering classes...no time for "silly stuff" like "band" anymore :worried: ...one of my "life regrets"

Recently gave my old 'bone to a high school buddy, who had given HIS 'bone away to one of his deserving students when he retired...go figure ! Now, I just listen to my Bill Watrous albums...:D
