The Cars - Heartbeat City - Vinyl

Limited 180gm vinyl LP pressing. MTV had become a major marketing tool by 1984, and The Cars were one of the first bands to use the new video medium to their advantage. The band's fifth album, Heartbeat City (Elektra), spawned several imaginative and memorable videos, which translated into massive chart and commercial success, making it one of the biggest releases of the year. Produced by hitmaker John quot;Muttquot; Lange (AC/DC, Def Leppard), the album included two Top Ten singles - the ballad quot;Drivequot; and the charismatic quot;You Might Thinkquot; - plus an additional two that landed in the Top 20: the summer anthem quot;Magicquot; and the eccentric quot;Hello Again.quot; But it didn't just stop there, plenty of other tracks could have been hits as well, such as the sparse rocker quot;It's Not the Nightquot; and the breezy pop of quot;Looking for Love.quot; Other highlights included the ethereal title track, the melodic rocker quot;Stranger Eyes,quot; and the moderately paced love song quot;Why Can't I Have You.quot;
