For those who dont know Ben Orr was "The Cars" bassist, and sometime lead singer for many years, and it was him who sang the song"Drive" which was a major hit all over the world,and was the TV link music on the first Live Aid concert. Sadly no longer with us, as he died of Cancer a couple of years ago, this was Bens only Solo Album and sadly to these ears is very disapointing.The Songwriting is mediocre, and even his singing is nowhere near the level of the songs he sang with The Cars, and its a shame he didn't produce a great album as his epitaph. Split between ballads, and Rockers there isn't one song I can remember, and i have played this about Ten times now,and its almost difficult to tell the difference between many of the tracks.So I would,nt recommend this but Ben Orr did leave a great epitaph his work with The Cars,his really great Bass playing,and ofcourse his vocals on the song "Drive". This is one of the all time great Pop Songs, and if you haven't heard the Cars(They disbanded several years ago) treat yourself to their "Greatest Hits" which is superb.Then try the "Heartbeat City" CD on which "Drive" is one of many brilliant songs, and performances. R.I.P Ben Orr,and Thanks.Read full review
