7" Single. Vinyl plays with occasional light-crackles (play-tested). Cover is not the original picture sleeve.
Shake It Up, by the Cars, was released as a single from their album of the same name. Although appearing for the first time in 1981, it was actually written years earlier by the band's songwriter and lead singer Ric Ocasek. The song became one of the Cars' most popular songs (peaking at No. 2 on the Billboard Top Tracks chart and No. 4 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart in early 1982). With the track Cruiser as its b-side, it hit No. 14 on the Billboard Disco Top 80 chart.
