Without his infectious keyboard work, their songs would've just been average, instead of the instantly addictive pop songs they were.

You know what? This song is really, really fun to play on guitar! Especially Ric Ocasek's opening rhythm guitar part. It's a sort of strumming on a power chord, where you hit the chord only on the off-beats (one-AND-two-AND-three-AND-four-AND). On the ON-beats, you don't bear down on the frets, so you get harmonics instead of the lower notes (mostly B or A). Ric also uses this technique in "You're All I've Got Tonight", later in the song, after the main riff has been established. Brilliant!

It had to be amazing to have heard the Cars in clubs as they were perfecting the material on their 1st LP. The first thought had to be that you were hearing something new and fresh that was not out there. They were not an exciting band to see from a theatrical standpoint, though Benjamin Orr was eye candy for the girls and obviously had the rock star look. "Moving In Stereo" will forever be in my top 20 of "stranded on an island" songs to want.

Imagine, a whole new genre at that time which I did no know what to make of their sound. Its so unique and vibrant, so different that it just blew-out the end of the 70s in glorious fashion. The first three albums should be in everyone's record collection with all of the pops, scratches, and skips of reliving the 70s all over again.
