Sadly , Julie is gone too. She passed away in August 2024.

Oh I’m gonna purchase this book about my beloved Benjamin however would you or someone else please tell me as to why there isn’t any live performances of Benjamin with his earlier bands?? Surely that tv show would have known Benjamin would go onto bigger and better things. Did they not record any please tell me. As a true fan of Benjamin and the Cars, this would be a treasure to watch. Thx. RIP Benjamin ❤

All the videos I’ve seen have his date of death as 10/03/2000. But his actual headstone on his grave notes his date of death as 10/04/2000. I don’t think the headstone would be incorrect.

Ben had it all over Ric Ocasek. I said what I said....

Thank you.

Good looking, talented man because he was Polish 😊

Really bad selection of font colors :-(

WOW que talentoso y hombre bello Benjamín...QDEP

Some people were just born to be great and they do the things we all wished we could, Benjamin was definitely one of those few, I bet people that knew Benjamin before they hit the big time saw that in him.

Well done, Mr. Milliken! Your book was a thorough tribute to Ben Orr and such an enjoyable read. Keep up the good work. You are truly a gifted writer. ❤

He passed away on my birthday 😢 that's so, so sad . Your music still lives on Ben . ❤

What a great collection of photos of a talented and pivotal figure in modern day music. Rest in peace.

Stay the night é a minha canção favorita dele

❤❤❤

Hey! Thank you so much for this great compilation of pica of Benjamin. Well done. I'm a female, and absolutely no doubt that the man was a real looker. As I get older (still listening to the Carrs!!!) I've come to see beyond the superficial and honor the facts about his character. He was devoted to not only his craft but to his child. His endurance in the end, battling cancer is a real inspiration for alot of folks going through that difficulty. I'm 9 years free, but it was a close call at times. So his courage makes me humble and grateful for another day. Thank you Ben for all these things, RIP.❤❤❤

Still ..i don't have the Book !! 😢😢

A very special thank you to Joe for a fantastic book! I've read many rock n roll biographies and yours was direct, fact-filled, entertaining, heartwarming and most of all, respectful. Ben was so private that, aside from basics, we know little about his youth, his adolesence, his military life, girlfriends - any era of his life. He wanted it that way. And because everyone respected Ben, everyone respected his wish for privacy, even after his death. He never boasted, a very humble, private guy. Even though you INTERVIEWED EVERY PERSON WHO KNEW BEN, you never had a bad word to write about Ben. You respected his wish about his privacy (even with Ben being dead). I think of Ben Jr: how he lost his only sibling and his father, who at vulnerable age of 5, worshipped his daddy above all. imagine being 5 yrs old and being told, you'll never see dad again. Absolute confusion, devastating loss and never-ending longing, as he watches other kids with their dads. Now imagine a fan - a stan - obsessed with Ben, who travels the country worshipping him, even though he's dead, not a chance of meeting him. This blogger then wrote stories so horrible about Ben and put them out into the universe for Ben Jr to find. Stories from a bitter, unsuccessful man, stuck in the past, Jim. So now thanks to a blogger, Jim gets to shape Ben's legacy, all thanks to "sweet" purple June. Twenty yrs dead she chose to publish sordid tales by a bitter man who was left behind in the wake of folk music, but "sweet" purple june believed smearing Ben was of utmost importance. She demolished his reputation. Even Ric, who Ben despised and fell out with, never did that to Ben!!!

missing him more NOW. .

He sure was a good looking guy

Cruel irony. Life imitates art . Ric manages the store ,hires Ben, just like the way it worked with 🥹The Cars..

❤❤❤❤

W❤W!! Made my Valentines Day . Ty so much . And to Benjamin You will always be 1 of a kind . Your beautiful voice and gorgeous face will live in my mind and heart Forever ❤

Ben Orr was the voice of The Good songs 🎵 Rest Easy Ben ❤you are so loved and so missed. 😢

I would love to know if that pretty girl in the photo at 1:39 was his girlfriend at the time.

Benjamin Orr was born in September 8, 1947 and died in October 3, 2000

I just got this book for Christmas. I'm not impressed with the repetitions.

This interviewer is rude and abrupt.

E senhor

Such a sweet face and sexy mouth...can I say that ?

😥😥😥😥

It's From Too much smoking and drinking. That's what causes pancreatic cancer.

Love Ben’s singing voice on the 1st songs before the Cars, especially ‘Come Back Down’ one, it’s super groovy, a very talented man

Ric said he was never the same after Ben died.

Morreu novo 53 anos😮😢

Mil gracias por la traducción al español soy fans de Ben Orr que dejó un lo legado maravilloso😢

LOVE YA BEN. My husband's best friend is the nephew of Greg hawkes the cars keyboardist. It's so weird my husband's brother looks like ben.

One of the greatest musicians ever, so underrated. Gave the Cars some of their unique sound....the whole group had their own things. I love them

This slideshow was amazing! So funny to see him in the previous bands with the pompodore hair doo, since I never thought of him like that. He was born to play music, and sadly missed.

Reading the book right now, having finally caught up with it. I was trying to read John Lydon's Anger is An Energy but it's so badly written and organized, I gave up on it. I mean, it's truly atrocious. A lot of rock books are just not good. I'm about 40 pp. into the Ben Orr book and it's fascinating. I'm a huge Cars fan from way back and I didn't know much about Ben's Cleveland days and history. I didn't even know a thing about Upbeat the TV show, given that I grew up here on LI NY. I read a bit about it in the Alex Chilton biography. I managed to see The Cars only once in 1988 at Madison Square Garden. A good show, but I wish I'd seen them back in the heyday. My friend Erik saw them at Forest Hills for the Heartbeat City tour. He's one of of THE biggest Cars fans of all time.

@1:17 Love Benjamin singing the “Come Back” song…wow it sounds fabulous!

Bye bye love.

What a lovely tribute.

This is an amazing tribute to Ben Orr. He was one of those rare people who you took your breath away on so many levels and you just wished you realized how special it was before it was gone. Excellent book btw, very happy I bought it.

БОЖЕСТВЕННЫЙ ГОЛОС БЕНА БУДУТ СЛУШАТЬ ВЕКАМИ! ТАЛАНТ ЛЕГЕНДА! ВЕЛИКОЛЕПНЫЙ МУЗЫКАНТ! НЕДООЦЕНИЛИ БЕНА! 👌👌🇸🇮🇸🇮🇸🇮2023г
