 Cheap Trick-At Budokan (1979) Epic Records 1-Hello There (2:27) 2-Come On Come On (3:17) 3-Lookout (3:01) 4-Big Eyes (3:55) 5-Need Your Love (8:46) 6-Ain't That A Shame (5:09) 7-I Want You To Want Me (3:45) 8-Surrender (4:25) 9-Goodnight (3:08) 10-Clock Strikes Ten (4:01) One of the best live albums of all time! The production ain't that great, as the bass is a little buried, but the band is tight and energetic. These songs are all beefed-up renditions of tunes from their first three records, which NEVER turn up used. The live version of "I Want You To Want Me" became Cheap Trick's biggest hit ever. |
These guys were doing glam-metal before glam-metal existed. Singer Robin Zander and bassist Tom Peterson are good looking pretty-boys while guitarist Rick Nielsen and drummer Bun E Carlos are just geeky looking. Nice contrast. |
