The Cars - Good Times Roll Live 1978.

I am sure I have heard this version from Pandora but I don't know which album it is from.

Uploader says from Rock goes to college but I cna't find it on iTunes. I'm not looking for the slower original version from their debut album.

Looking at the wiki page for Rock Goes to College, it looks like The Cars stuff wasn't officially released (under the Bootleg section of the article):

I looked at Amazon (US and UK) and there's no Cars stuff as part of the BBC releases.

Ah, hmm. Thanks for looking into it.

Paff

did you seek out the 1999 re-release of the first album? Demos and live tracks, including a live version of Let The Good Times Roll recorded at The Paradise in Boston.

Man, Rock Goes to College was one of the coolest ideas ever, and seems so quaint now!

EDIT: Incidentally, the first time The Police played "Message in a Bottle" in public was on Rock Goes to College: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5G2LtPvPemw
