…is it too early to start sniping about “The New Cars”…?
Actually, I admit it, I’m curious to hear them.
No, Ric Ocasek is nowhere to be found…although he reportedly gave them his blessing…but Eliot Easton and Greg Hawkes are in the house.
So who’s on lead vocals?
Todd Rundgren.
He’ll be joined by Kasim Sulton and Prairie Prince, both of whom have worked with Rundgren many times in the past.
Cars fans have gotten up in arms, as have Rundgren followers, and you can’t really blame them. It’s not the Cars if Ric Ocasek isn’t in the band, and who wants to hear Todd sing other people’s songs when he’s written so many of his own? But I still can’t believe it wouldn’t be worth hearing…
