The Cars - Just What I Needed: The Cars Anthology (2CD, 1995)
EAC | FLAC with CUE and LOG - 1,06 GB | Full Scans | MP3 CBR 320 Kbps - 372 MB
Genre: Pop Rock / New Wave | TT - 151:54 minutes | Label: Elektra / Cat. # 73506-2

With their irresistible synthesis of New Wave quirkiness and melodic pop, the Cars made music that was distinctive, edgy, accessible, and superbly crafted. Rhino's "Just What I Needed", a two-disc retrospective, is a testament to the band's enduring impact. Its 40 tracks encompass the group's most essential recordings, including B-sides, unreleased demos, memorable album cuts, and radio singles.

Despite musical roots that branched from the Velvets to Steely Dan and the likes of then new wave icons Roxy Music, the Cars never strayed far from the crucial, hook-conscious, three-minute pop song sensibility which made them one of the most successful and long-lived radio staples of the '70s and '80s. The hit singles and select album cuts stretch from their improbably rich debut through moodier efforts like "Panorama" and the vibrant, yet satisfying "Shake It Up" and "Heartbeat City". The CD is well seasoned by a cache of previously unreleased demos, B-sides, and outtakes. The earliest of these ('77 demos of "Take Me Now" and "Cool Fool") demonstrate that the band's sound was intact before they met their first multiplatinum producer, while later rarities (playful covers of Iggy's "Fun Time" and the Nightcrawlers' "Little Black Egg") underscore their eclectic, seemingly incongruous tastes. Devoted fans will want the entire discography, and those with a casual interest in the group will be satisfied with "Complete Greatest Hits", but this box set covers the ground in between, and makes a case for the Cars as one of the best bands of their time.
