The Cars' "My Best Friend's Girl" - the first ever picture disc - peaked at no.3 on the UK chart behind The Boomtown Rats' "Rat Trap" and Olivia Newton-John's "Hopelessy Devoted To You".

Ok ok, since we're being honest here, I saw the cars in concert with UFO at the old Capital Centre in DC. yes I did and oddly enough??? I had a thing for Ric Ocasek for about a minute I did enjoy their style of music

I only ever bought this record (yes i said record) of theirs, but I think I wore it out. My favourite song was "Moving in Stereo". Might have had something to do with my college mind-set back then.
I do believe the cars where playing while this pic was taken......

Great pic and of course records For some odd reason all of mine still survive somewhere in my basement along WITH (drum roll) the record player to play them on. I have no earthly answer as to why though. Must be my packrat nature. Lol

Vinyl is the new fad, didn't you hear, it's making a comeback! Hubs just bought a new turntable, and pulled out the old lps, and singles....

New fad?? I had no idea. Must not have caught on here in the frozen tundra of Maryland. My kids still laugh at me and burn through cd's faster than they can buy them

Actually, I think it's just us old farts that are resurrecting them.... the kids still think they're messed up!
