      The Cars' blend of New Wave experimentation and trad-rock values made for nearly ubiquitous radio presence in the late 1970s and early 80s. Often jumpily ambivalent and marvellously pop-wise in the same moment, Ric Ocasek captured the zeitgeist for people to whom even Talking Heads didn't matter much. Kicking off with one of the all-time great singles, "Just What I Needed", then winding its way through seven more years of singles including the then-brand new "Tonight She Comes", Greatest Hits is one, um, well-oiled pleasure machine. --Rickey Wright
