Black Cars, Gino Vannelli's eighth studio album, came out on Polydor in 1984, produced by Gino with his brothers Joe and Ross. It's a sleek, after-dark ride of a record, glossy and muscular, the sound of a singer who made his name in the '70s mixing rock, jazz and pop and now roaring into the neon decade.
It gave him two hit singles, the title track and "Hurts to Be in Love". Canada took notice at the Juno Awards: Vannelli was nominated for Male Vocalist of the Year, an award he had won in 1979, and he and Joe took home the 1986 Juno for Recording Engineer of the Year for their work on "Black Cars".
