The Cars - 1981 - Shake It Up (2016 HDtracks) [FLAC@192khz24bit]  The Cars  Wikipedia: The Cars are an American rock band that emerged from the new wave scene in the late 1970s. The band originated in Boston, Massachusetts in 1976, with singer, rhythm guitarist and songwriter Ric Ocasek, singer and bassist Benjamin Orr, lead guitarist Elliot Easton, keyboardist Greg Hawkes and drummer David Robinson. The Cars were at the forefront in merging 1970s guitar-oriented rock with the new synthesizer-oriented pop that was then becoming popular and which would flourish in the early 1980s. Robert Palmer, music critic for The New York Times and Rolling Stone, described the Cars' musical style by saying: "they have taken some important but disparate contemporary trends—punk minimalism, the labyrinthine synthesizer and guitar textures of art rock, the '50s rockabilly revival and the melodious terseness of power pop—and mixed them into a personal and appealing blend." The Cars were named "Best New Artist" in the 1978 Rolling Stone Readers' Poll and won "Video of the Year" for "You Might Think" at the first MTV Video Music Awards in 1984. Their debut album, The Cars, sold six million copies and appeared on the Billboard 200 album chart for 139 weeks. As of 2001, the Cars have sold over 23 million albums in the United States. The band broke up in 1988, and Ocasek had always discouraged talk of a reunion since then. Orr died in 2000 from pancreatic cancer. In 2005, Easton and Hawkes joined with Todd Rundgren to form a spin-off band, the New Cars, which performed classic Cars and Rundgren songs alongside new material. The original surviving members reunited in 2010 to record a new album, Move Like This, which was released in May 2011, followed by a short tour. In 2015, they were nominated for induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Shake It Up  Artist: The Cars Title: Shake It Up Producer: Roy Thomas Baker Release Date: November 6, 1981 Recorded: Syncro Sound, Boston 1981 Label: Rhino Records, Elektra Records Genres: Rock, New Wave, Pop Rock, Art Rock, Dance Rock Duration: 40:43 Website: http://www.hdtracks.com/shake-it-up-291163 Wikipedia: Shake It Up is the fourth studio album by American rock band The Cars, released in 1981. It was the last album by the Cars to be produced by Roy Thomas Baker. A much more pop-oriented album than its predecessor, its title track became their first Billboard top ten hit. AllMusic Review by Greg Prato: By augmenting their sound with more synthesizers, electronics, and drum machines, the Cars' fourth release, Shake It Up, helped bridge their hard rock-based early work (1978's The Cars) with the futuristic-pop direction of 1984's Heartbeat City. The band's sound may have been evolving with each succeeding album, but Ric Ocasek was still writing compelling new wave compositions despite all the change, many of which would ultimately become rock & roll standards. The up-tempo title track remains a party favorite to this day (reaching number four on the singles charts), while the melancholic "Since You're Gone" remains one of Ocasek's best-ever tales of heartbreak. Intriguing videos were made for both songs, officially introducing the band to the MTV age. Like its predecessor, 1980's Panorama, filler is present ("This Could Be Love," "Maybe Baby"), but many lesser-known album tracks prove to be highlights: the almost entirely synth-oriented tracks "Think It Over" and "A Dream Away," the rocking "Cruiser," plus the more pop-oriented "I'm Not the One" and "Victim of Love." Although Shake It Up was another resounding commercial success, their next album would be the one that made the Cars one of rock's quintessential acts of the '80s.  01 - Since You're Gone - 03:31 02 - Shake It Up - 03:32 03 - I'm Not The One - 04:10 04 - Victim Of Love - 04:24 05 - Cruiser - 04:57 06 - A Dream Away - 05:40 07 - This Could Be Love - 04:27 08 - Think It Over - 04:56 09 - Maybe Baby - 05:06 Personnel: Ric Ocasek – rhythm guitar, lead vocals on 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 9 Elliot Easton – lead guitar, backing vocals Greg Hawkes – keyboards, backing vocals Benjamin Orr – bass, lead vocals on 5, 7, 8 David Robinson – drums, percussion    ♪♬♫ ENJOY! ♪♬♫ Sharing Widget |
