Rest in Peace Ric Ocasek
Ric Ocasek
The Cars
Naturally, there are much deserved tributes to lead singer, rhythm guitarist from The Cars, Ric Ocasek pouring out all over the music blogosphere. When I posted about The Cars’ self titled debut album from 1978, it was said that they were ahead of their time and they were. For me, The Cars were one of the chief founders of the new wave/punk movement. Since all of the best words have already been said, the best I can do is to add my all time favourite Cars song, “My Best Friend’s Girl.”
Rest in Peace Ric.

Rest in peace Ric. The man could really write a song.
Uh oh, it’s magic!

Great play on puns. I’m sure Ric would have loved it.

This is so true. It started with Lemmy in 2015 and it keeps on going.

Really shocked when I read the news the other day. Been fitting in some Cars to my listening the last couple of days.

I felt sad when I heard about that. Somebody needs to put a brake on time.
