Episode Details

This week, my guest curator is Joe Milliken, author of “Let’s Go! Benjamin Orr & The Cars” and we are crafting a mixtape filled with our favorite songs from (you guessed it!) The Cars!

We also talk about some of the subject matter from Joe’s book, Benjamin Orr & Ric Ocasek’s pre-Cars band Milkwood; The New Cars, a 2007 version of the band featuring Elliot Easton, Greg Hawkes from The Cars, and Todd Rundgren on vocals. 

It’s no secret that The Cars’ self-titled album is my favorite album of all time, so this was an extremely difficult episode for me, as I had to make sure to spread the love amongst all of their other (equally amazing) albums!
