A Transformational Album

I was born in 1966. I was around 12 when I saw Gary perform on SNL. I bought the vinyl record that week following. It was truly electrifying! There was NO ONE out there like him at the time. I played this to my beautiful 20 year old daughter the other day ( wore out the original vinyl, years ago, good thing for digital). She was as blown away; as when I first heard it 35 years prior ( yes we are old Gary :). This is way 'out of the box', and more than stands the test of time. Absolutely a classic!
A Perenial Gem

I bought this album in vinyl back in 1979 by a recommendation by a friend. It was a record that I would listen to and put on the shelf for a year and pull it back out and say "Wow! This is some good music. I must listen to it more." Then put back on the shelf for a year. Needless to say, I never wore it out so it always sounded fresh. This album is a timeless classic that is a must have in your collection.
Cars started it all..

Gary Numan and the song "Cars", in my opinion planted the seed that much of the 80's pop music bloomed from. This is when it all began. JDSB3

This album is awesome and the only dull track is the one that is two songs b4 cars(because it sounds just like it). ALL the synth sounds are awesome even if they are similar. Cars is NOT a one hit wonder to the chap that said that. this is an all but one hit album...
Under rated! :(

Cars is the sole song (besides A Flock OF Seagulls "I Ran") that got me into New Wave and 70's and 80's music! :D
Gary Numan deserves more than just Cars having a high rating.
Awesome 80s Album

I love this album.
I bought this album for a few reasons. The first is that I remember liking the song "Cars" when I was a kid (born 1985). I also like the electronic/shoegaze style of music and some of my favorite musicians like Trent Reznor like Gary Numan.
The music in this album is simple but entrancing. "Cars" is one of the more energetic tracks and great to rock out to. "Metal" and "Complex" round out my other two favorite tracks. The rest of the songs are pretty good.
I definitely recommend those three songs, if not the entire album, to anyone who likes 80's music, shoegaze, or electronic/synth rock.
this is for true electronic fans!!
