Saturday Flashback: Let's Go!

The Cars had their breakthrough the previous year, but it was the release of Candy-O in June of 1979 that locked them in.  Featuring an original Alberto Vargas pinup style cover, especially commissioned for the album, Candy-O would be a teenage favorite that year.  A strong sophomore release with several great songs, the boys from Boston (although Ric Ocasek and Ben Orr are from Ohio) hit gold with "Let's Go", one of my favorite pop singles of the year.  Enjoy!
