Cheap Trick was my second concert experience. I had enough money to go see one show. It was either The Kinks or Cheap Trick. That was 1977. I never did get to see the Kinks. I've seen Cheap Trick several times over the years. Always a great show!

As far as single LIVE albums - there are 3 - Live at Leeds, Get Yer Ya's Ya's Out, and Trick Live at Budokan. The Trick show reeks with incredible energy. Fantastic album...song of my teenage years. I"ve seen this band at least 8 times (maybe 9)....incredible show EACH time. Last time...move over you younger rockers....this particular Trick show was HARD & HEAVY......the way Trick is best! That was the way to show these young punks HOW to do it! Robin's voice is INCREDIBLE STILL!

I just watched this interview on Crackle a couple months ago, and didn't expect to enjoy it as much as I did. I've never been a huge fan, but like several of their songs (of course, "I Want You to Want Me" and its holiday counterpart, "I Want You for Christmas", "Surrender", "The Flame" and even "Just Got Back", which was included in the soundtrack to "Grown Ups"), but now that I've watched this, I must say Robin, Rick and Tom do seem like really nice guys, from what Ann & Nancy Wilson of Heart said about Cheap Trick, when they toured together.

@crisrose521 10 месяцев назад

Ironically , the band’s greatest studio was done during Toms absence which they didn’t mention which was Standing On the Edge that came out in 1985 and was produced by Jack Douglas who produced the bands debut album in ‘77 and they didn’t mention the dispute they had over ownership of the bands name “ Cheap Trick “ though Rick hinted on it a bit

@jaysantiago9673 10 месяцев назад

@ARIZJOE 6 месяцев назад

This demonstrates the role of luck in life, and Rick Nielsen's industriousness. A Japanese-American friend told me Queen was the biggest thing in Japan before this happened. Then Nielsen is asked to write an article on Queen, and it causes a stir. There was an opportunity, Cheap Trick took advantage of it, and they unwittingly found the success that had eluded them.

@twoblacklabs904 10 месяцев назад

Ron, they supposedly “settled up” with Bun E., paid him his back finances, restored his 1/4 voting rights and decision making abilities after he took those 3 to federal court AND WON. Still, he refuses to play with them because they destroyed the friendship and equal partnership. So he continues in an informal business arrangement, but sadly, he will never work with them on any stage, any longer…

@DrTomoculus 10 месяцев назад

That is genius. As one somewhat knowledgable about Japanese manga comics, through my own study, and my son's absolute love for them, that Cheap Trick achieved recognition in that country because they look like cartoon characters, before anyone had even heard a note, is just amazing. That's the gods smiling down on your fortune. Hmmmm. George Martin produces their album, this actually ends up stalling their career, and they lose their bass player. Hmmmm. They go to Julian Lennon's birthday party, they get their bass player back. Hmmmmm.

Legendary producer Tom Werman recently said Bun E Carlos was the best drummer he ever worked with. However, Bun sued CT and now gets 25% of all of the revenue CT generates. So, the other 3 bust their back touring, they have to pay the extra musicians they hire, the crew etc. Bun E makes more than the guys doing the work. I understand their frustration

@brotherhiram5682 10 месяцев назад

Bun E Carlos has health problems. He approved of Dax being the drummer.

@boldporcupine 10 месяцев назад

I don't think it's health reasons. My understanding is that Bun E. wanted to tour when Robin was trying to raise his child and he got pissed over Bun's remarks so they got rid of him. Petty if true. Bun E. accepts Dax because he still has a 25% interest in the band.

@davidteller7681 10 месяцев назад

Cheap Trick had just finished a residency in Las Vegas and were offered a huge sum to extend it. Robin's wife had just had a baby and he wanted to be home for a while. Bun wanted to take the offer. Things were said...Daxx is now the drummer.
