    This would make a great Cameron Crowe movie... The Midwest meets the Far East... Maybe even the Cohen Brothers... From Jack Douglas walking into that bowling alley seeing them for the first time, Rick doing his carnival game... How they started ans all that led up to Budokan. A rock and roll underdog story

    yes, cheap trick and Budokan are synonymous in this part of the world, especially for us time travelers

    I actually met Robin and Bunny after their show at Whitewater. They stopped by my friend's dorm room for the post show party. When they walked in they were just so cool. It is difficult to put into words; but, I could immediatly see why they were major stars. An aura of coolness, as a phrase, doesn't quite cover it; but it's close. And another part of it was that they were very down to earth. And I mentioned that I had their first album and Bunny seemed surprised. They were my favorite band and still are!

    First time I saw them was with Foreigner in 70's. Met my first wife that night, she hated me..lol. Rick was quite an athlete jumping around on stage just non-stop..lol So damn stoned but I still remember it like yesterday..lol

    Reminds me of The Ramones, they got big everywhere except the US. Hendrix moved to the UK to find success. Sucks that so many talented people have an almost impossible job on their hands.

    Cheap Trick were pretty much the band that the phrase "big in Japan" was coined for. It was that level of fanaticism, plus the screaming girls in the audience that really put "CT at Budokan" over the top and made them huge both here in the states and worldwide. You can just feel that level of excitement coming through in the recording, and it's all real. No overdubs, no added audience noise. What you hear is really how it was, and the authenticity is palpable. Robin's slowed down between song banter has become iconic. I've seen more than a few bands cover "Surrender", and they always do the "This next song... is the first song... on our new album..." bit at the beginning. Budokan has to be the most well known live album ever made.

    Rarely are live albums game changers. I can only think of maybe four.: The Allman Brothers at Fillmore East, Framton Comes Alive, probably James Brown At The Apollo, and Cheap Trick's Live At Budokan. The first two have technically excellent (all-around better takes than already great studio versions) versions of high points of the artist's repertoire. The Brown and Trick albums though convey the humanity of very high energy over anything technical. It's a great bonus we have these and that they are so well captured on tape. For very emotional reasons my favorite two live rock albums at Live At Fillmore East and Live At Budokan. They're polar opposites in style and that in itself weighs heavy as each does much more than it was believed to be possible for each band...and the fans. Thanks for what may be the best party live rock album ever.

    "This is the first song off our new album". Drop the beat ! Opening for Check your Head, Beastie Boys. I am a 70's kid and Cheap Trick fan who was also a 90's music nerd. That sample of Robin's voice opening that funky lo-fi, hip-hop masterpiece brought everything full circle.

    That's how it is, many band find fame in other countries beside their own. It's strange and fk'edup but true. Just like many English new wave band found fame in the USA but not back in their own countries! The beauty about Japan, the people there love music and welcomes any foreign band that puts out all their best to make the music sound amazing for them!

    Man, I love this band!!! Right from the start I thought they sounded cool and powerful I think the term "PowerPop" came from that time! Catchy pop songs delivered in a powerful/punky style! They truly have their sound and are still rocking as hard as they did (Sorry Bun E. isn't there) as I saw them with ZZ Top a few tears ago...

    IlThe first album i purchased of Cheap Trick was live at Budokan. I can't imagine the siund being any better. It was awesome. I had no idea that before that performance the band wasn't that well known.
