The Cars
The Elektra Years 1978-1987, a six-disc box set offering all six of The Cars' albums - The Cars (1978), Candy-O (1979), Panorama (1980), Shake It Up (1981), Heartbeat City (1984) and Door to Door (1987) - all newly remastered. (This marks the first time that any album outside of the band's powerhouse debut gets a sonic upgrade!) Vocalist/guitarist Ric Ocasek oversaw the mastering, while drummer David Robinson, who helped create the band's original album covers, served as art director for the set. (For vinyl enthusiasts, a limited edition 180-gram version will be available on June 7, with each record pressed on a different color vinyl.)
