BEN ORR



He was the better singer and died from pancreatic cancer at 53.

Saw them live in Boston a few times.

It's really something how the two singers in the band sounded similar on vocals. I agree. The bass player who died from cancer had the better voice.

Before that video I didn't know who sang what.  My favorite Cars tunes feature Ben on vocals.

Let's Go, Bye Bye Love, Just What I needed.

I loved their music. I worked at a bar in college and it was a retro staple on the juke box. PIP

One of the top 5 American bands. Tod Rundgren fronting the band was a travesty.

Yeah, that was an odd lineup.  I love Rundgren's own song catalog, though.

Keith Richards

I always thought Charlie Watts fried his brain years ago, just based on his lifeless, zombies facial expressions during shows.  The guy's mind is fully intact.  Richards is even more on the ball than him.  These dudes are like Gods of Drugs and Booze, probably have better physical exams than most getbiggers.
