With all due respect to Blondie and The Talking Heads, The Cars are the best new wave band ever (record sales will bear this out too). The group's self-named debut album came out in the summer of 1978 and is basically their greatest-hits record: "Just What I Needed" (number 27), "My Best Friend's Girl" (number 35), and "Good Times Roll" (number 41). The Cars stayed on the charts for over two and a half years, delaying the release of the group's second album, Candy-O by almost a year. Too bad no one buys albums any more, The Cars had some of the best cover art ever.
