Let’s Go!: Exploring 20 Essential Songs From The Cars’ Legacy
Description
This week, guest curator Joe Milliken — author of Let’s Go! Benjamin Orr & The Cars — joins me to craft a mixtape celebrating the best songs from The Cars’ legendary discography.
Along the way, we dive into Joe’s book, explore Benjamin Orr and Ric Ocasek’s pre-Cars band Milkwood, and chat about The New Cars, the 2007 lineup featuring Elliot Easton, Greg Hawkes, and Todd Rundgren.
As a lifelong fan, narrowing down their incredible catalog was no easy task — especially since The Cars self-titled album is my all-time favorite. In this episode, we spread the love across their entire catalog, uncovering hits, deep cuts, and fan favorites alike.
