The Cars - Candy-O

When it comes to new-wave, one band towers over the rest of the field. With a sound that's synonymous with great '80s pop and arena-sized hooks, the Cars became a veritable greatest hits factory. Half-speed mastered from the original analog tapes for the first time in history, Mobile Fidelity's numbered, limited-edition 180-gram vinyl LPs of the Boston quintet's blockbuster 1978 debut The Cars (on which ever song is a radio classic) and smash 1979 follow-up Candy-O sound sensational. Let the good times roll!

How did the Cars move beyond their smash 1978 debut and secure their status as one of music's leading bands for years to come? Look no further than the quadruple-platinum Candy-O. Continuing along the streamlined pop paths of its predecessor, the 1979 sophomore effort is preoccupied with desirable women that are as mysterious, sexy and cool as the group's music - and the records' pin-up cover.
