    Robin Zander is one of the Best vocalist in Rock n Roll history. He did not get the credit he deserved. One of the all time Greats! Thx Robin for al you gave us. I definitely noticed your talent
    I played drums since 1976, and it would have been a dream to play behind you sir!

    November 1982, I had fallen hard for a pretty blonde. We met at a skating rink, and as we were about to leave, this song came on. I moved in for a kiss, and 37+ years from then we are still together. Two kids and a grandson. Cheap Trick is the soundtrack of our life.

Everyone has their own opinions, but there is one thing that no one can quibble with, they are the hardest working band in the business. Bar none! Great talent, great songs, great sound track to my life.......

They wrote their own songs, played great LIVE performances had videos but still wasnt a household name. Again, the competition was really fierce. CT owns a special place in my soul they were my first concert at Riverfront coliseum 1979 Dream Police Tour. The Budokan album is one of the best LIVE albums and that put them on the R&R map. I think they did allright though they are in the Rock Hall at least. Finally some recognition.

      @FooBar Maximus never cracked the top 40 in the US... Record label didn't get behind this song at all. Radio wasn't playing it, at all. Cheap Trick tried to sue their label over royalties and lost badly. It set their entire career back, almost ruined them. Mtv played it because at that time in 1982, they would play anything to fill up 24 hours of video content. Thankfully, they did because if not, no one would know this song ever existed.

    One intriguing thing about Cheap Trick.... Early 1980's...MTV allowed us to actually see our favorite bands live besides going to a concert. So here you have the drummer, Bun E.,who looked like he could be my dad(at the time), lead guitar Rick with his whacky clothes and a million guitars, Robin king of front men, and the bass player Peterson. What an eclectic group of guys who can bang out killer tunes, Thumbs up CT!!

    • @bobkidd1054
      @bobkidd1054 9 лет назад +20

      OdyBeRidin The shame is that if you put together a band like this today and tried to break into the pop music scene, the A and R guys at the label would immediately demand that Rick and Bun be replaced because they are not marketable and would not sell posters and lunchboxes because they are not "good-looking". Then, they would make over Robin and run his voice through an auto-tuner. Then, they would force feed them "formula" pop songs for an extremely narrow demographic and dump them after their second album. God I miss these days.

    Cheap Trick was my first unofficial concert back in June of 1984. I was celebrating my 14th birthday at Water World and they were performing at the Southern Star Ampitheatre next door at Astroworld. There was a ridiculous little three foot high cable fence separating the parks that you can simply walk over and security was pretty lax. Once we got into the crowds it was super easy to not get caught. Too bad we didn't get to stay til the end cause my mom was coming to pick us up!

      Probably my all time favorite song. When I first saw it on MTV, I was utterly bewitched. I'd spend hours listening to Cheap Trick on vinyl with headphones on and the volume WAY up. I'd stare at Robin on the album cover and lose myself in the music.
      My youth would not have been the same without Cheap Trick bringing me so much joy with their phenomenal music!
      I used to watch MTV nonstop waiting for them to play,
      "If You Want My Love," again and again and again

    I love Cheap Trick so much - I am so disappointed that they aren't headlining but are the opening acts for acts who I believe should be opening for them. They can be the headliner and glam up the set a bit for their fans but they don't - not sure why. The opening act? Really? Cheap Trick is a LIVING LEGEND with so many great songs they don't sing in concert. Don't get me wrong I am thrilled they are still together and still make time to tour, singing the same songs over and over, are in great shape, look great - and put on a powerful, fantastic, extraordinary show - and I love that they are still together. But I feel as though they ARE the headliner. I read somewhere that Joe Eliot of Def Leppard, said Def Leppard was the opening act on a concert series and then thought what the? And decided that Def Leppard should be the headliner. And he was right. Cheap Trick is a HEADLINER! I love you Cheap Trick. xo
