Elliot Easton met ace songwriter Jules Shear while working as a sideman on Shear's "Watch Dog" album.
So when Easton asked Shear to collaborate on a solo record he was thinking of, the resulting "Change No Change" was probably beyond the expectations of Cars fans that heard it.
Elliot also sings in a pleasant, if reedy voice, which is more than can be said for the Billy Squire sound of the five previously unreleased bonus songs.

 Elliot Easton Discography   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-10)
The lead guitarist from The Cars (who knew they had a "lead" guitarist?), Elliot Easton released a really good neo-pop album in 1985, Change No Change.
Featuring material written by Easton and Jules Shear, it sounded more like The Rembrandts than The Cars, and Elliot acquitted himself on vocals nicely (imagine a flatter version of Robin Zander or Elvis Costello).
When The Cars broke up, Easton turned up on various albums as a guest, produced a few, and formed Elliot Easton's Tiki Gods for some one-off projects in the '90s.
