Description:
The sounds of new wave pop music and the early days of MTV were defined by the work of a handful of iconic musicians, and few stood taller in that era than Ric Ocasek, frontman and primary songwriter for the Cars.


The band charted thirteen Top 40 singles in the U.S. from 1978 to 1987, the music video for their song "You Might Think" won MTV's first-ever Video of the Year award, and their biggest hit, "Drive," became a Top 10 hit across the globe. They would ultimately be inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Following the band's breakup in 1988, Ocasek continued to have a lively professional as well as personal life dating supermodels, publishing poetry, and appearing in movies. He enjoyed enormous success as a producer, working with such bands as Weezer, No Doubt, Guided by Voices, and the Bad Brains.

Moving in Stereo- The Life of Ric Ocasek, the Driving Force of the Cars serves as an in-depth guide to Ocasek's life and catalog as a musician. Drawing on interviews, personal reminiscences, and the the journalistic coverage he so reliably inspired, it gives a memorable portrait of one of the most essential voices in pop music during the MTV era and beyond.

Solid Everyday Shirt
Color: 312 Red, Size: X-Large
Pretty happy with this one. Fits true to size and looks good on. The cotton is soft and comfortable, feels decent for the price. Stripes look nice and haven't faded after a few washes so far. Not the thickest material out there but it works fine for casual wear. Good shirt to throw on when you want to look put together without trying too hard. Would consider buying in another color.

Perfectly fitted shorts with great stretch and comfort for the price
Color: 311 White, Size: Large, Color: 311 White, Size: Large
These shorts quickly became a favorite. The fit is spot on — snug in the right places without being restrictive, which gives them a really flattering look. The material feels high quality for the price, and there’s enough stretch built in to make them extremely comfortable for everyday wear. What stands out most is the value. For the cost, the combination of fit, comfort, and durability is hard to beat. They move easily with you, whether you’re lounging, walking, or being active, and they don’t lose their shape after wear. Overall, these shorts hit the sweet spot between style, comfort, and affordability. If you want something that looks fitted, feels good, and won’t break the bank, this is an excellent choice.

Very nice shirt, runs a little big depending on how you like it to fit
Color: 311 Black, Size: Medium
We got it specifically for the black and white stripes. My husband typically wears a medium. We buy the WYR shirts for him since they have a tapered, flattering fit. I initially ordered the medium but it was too big and baggy especially in the waist. We ended up getting the small and it fits perfect. I really like the hand of the fabric.

Seems great so far - 3 washes and nothing but good things to say
Color: 311 White, Size: Large
Shirt looks great colors wise and it's lasted perfectly so far in limited washing (cold water + dryer). There's a bit of stretch above and beyond what cotton normally does (from the nylon or lycra I believe) but you can't tell unless you're putting the shirt on. As for fit - fits me perfectly. I tend to be more of a large in the shoulders and a medium at the waist, but this shirt is great for me. Def more of a fitted look but NOT jersey shore douchey type fitted. EDIT - +1 year and shirt is still going strong. No rips tears, etc. I've washed cold and warm, tumble dry medium

Comfortable, and surprisingly good quality
Color: 31260 Green, Size: Large
Super comfortable and stretchy, worked great for my chicken little costume. I’ve washed it about 5 or 6 times now and it hasn’t shrunk or gotten pilly or anything.
