RIP The Cars frontman Ric Ocasek
75-year old Ric Ocasek, original lead-vocalist, rhythm-guitarist, and keyboardist for new-wave rock band The Cars, known for hits like "Just What I Needed", "Drive", "Good Times Roll", etc., has just passed away in NYC in his apartment, one year after he & The Cars were inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame. Rock on in heaven Ric Ocasek.
