    Staple of my youth, when sports and MTV ruled my world.

    This is how I first knew about The Cars.

    This is the one that came on every 25 minutes, it seemed.

    “Let The Good Times Roll” is the ultimate t-top song. RIP.

    Drive is the other one that played nonstop for 2 or 3 years.

    Had a long career as a producer as well. My advisor in college always admired Ocasek...not because of his music but because he landed Paulina Poriskova.

    Cars song that I’ve really gotten into the last few years.

    Touch and Go.

    Drive is great, but Since You’re Gone is my favourite Cars track. Also produced some of Weezer’s best work.

    No way he could have been 75, I don’t imagine.
