Sought-after 1979 U.S. first issue vinyl copy of Candy-O, the second studio album by The Cars, signed beautifully on the back cover in blue felt tip by Ric Ocasek and Elliot Easton, in green felt tip by Greg Hawkes and Benjamin Orr, and in black felt tip by David Robinson. The consignor attests that the autographs were obtained around the time of the album’s release. In fine condition, with scattered tiny surface impressions. The record is included. Accompanied by a full letter of authenticity from REAL.
With classic hits such as 'Let's Go,' Dangerous Type,' and 'It's All I Can Do,' The Cars' 1979 sophomore follow-up solidified their standing as one of the most important rock bands of the decade. The iconic album cover was painted by legendary pin-up artist Alberto Vargas, who was persuaded to come out of retirement by his niece, an avid Cars fan. The result is widely considered as one of pop music's greatest album covers. This example is made all the more desirable for its first issue status, which bears no band name or album title. True vintage and fully signed Cars albums are quite rare, with this being a truly outstanding early specimen.
