A friend just e-mailed that he died today. I hope this doesn't sound flip, but I hope he took one of his 'two tickets to paradise', because he seemed like an authentic blue-collar kind of guy - like The Boss.

09-13-2019 04:47 PMMy high school soundtrack lost a giant. The Ronnie Spector reveal in the Take Me Home Tonight video still gives me chills. RIP

09-16-2019 01:17 AMAnd now Ric Ocasek. Another blow for those of us who came of age in the 80's. Sounds like it was unexpected.

09-16-2019 02:17 AMIn the article they mention two Cars songs which are accurate although Ric Ocasek did not sing "Just What I Needed". The lead on that tune was the late Benjamin Orr as were a number of, particularly the early, hits from the band. Ocasek sung lead on enough of them that they could have picked two he sang.
Ocasek's line at The Cars RRHOF induction:
"It was decided that Ben would be the singer and I would be the good looking member."
As to Mr. Perry....please no. I don't want to spend a couple of hours reviving my wife.Last edited by NotDutra5; 09-16-2019 at 02:20 AM.
