The Cars

The Cars, 1978

1. Good Times Roll 3:44
2. My Best Friend's Girl 3:44
3. Just What I Needed 3:44
4. I'm In Touch With Your World 3:31
5. Don't Cha Stop 3:01
6. You're All I've Got Tonight 4:13
7. Bye Bye Love 4:14
8. Moving In Stereo 5:15
9. All Mixed Up 4:14

 

지금 들어도 산뜻한 기분이 드는 앨범. The Cars는 Drive나 싱글로 발매된 Tonight She Comes 정도 알고 있던 밴드인데, 첫 앨범부터 좋은 곡들이 많다. 앞부분은 장난스러운 분위기인데, 뒤로 갈수록 진지해진다.

Candy-O, 1979

1. Let's Go 3:32
2. Since I Held You 3:16
3. It's All I Can Do 3:46
4. Double Life 4:11
5. Shoo Be Doo 1:41
6. Candy-O 2:37
7. Night Spots 3:14
8. You Can't Hold On Too Long 2:47
9. Lust For Kicks 3:52
10. Got A Lot On My Head 2:59
11. Dangerous Type 4:30

 

이 앨범은 황학동에서 빽판으로 많이 보았던 기억이 난다. 1집에 비해서는 좀 심심해진 편이다.

Panorama, 1980

1. Panorama 5:42
2. Touch And Go 4:55
3. Gimme Some Slack 3:32
4. Don't Tell Me No 4:00
5. Getting Through 2:35

7. Down Boys 3:09
8. You Wear Those Eyes 4:55
9. Running To You 3:22
10. Up And Down 3:31

 

기타간주가 좋은 Touch And Go 외에, 꼽을만한 곡은 없는 듯. 이 앨범까지는 아직 밴드로서 주목받기 전인 듯 하다.

전반부에 가볍고 재미있는 노래들이 있고 뒷부분은 좀 밋밋하다.

여섯번째 앨범. 많이 평범해졌다.
