Album Description

On August 28, 1999, {\power pop} masters {$Cheap Trick} played a special show for fans at {~Davis Park} in their hometown of Rockford, IL, to salute their 25th anniversary as a band together. The show included several musical celebrities making cameo appearances (as well as relatives of {$Cheap Trick} bandmembers) and the inclusion of {$the Rockford Symphony Orchestra String Quartet} on several tracks, while the 29-song set list dipped deep into the band's catalog -- including at least one song from every album of their career thus far. The evening's proceedings have been captured on the 2001 double-disc {^Silver}, the band's second live release in two years. All of the expected fan faves are included -- {&"Ain't That a Shame,"} {&"I Want You to Want Me,"} {&"Surrender,"} {&"Dream Police"} -- but longtime fans will go straight to the set's abundance of more uncommon material. Standouts include two standards of early {@MTV} ({&"If You Want My Love"} and {&"She's Tight"}), the {$Big Star} tribute {&"That 70s Song,"} the forgotten 1979 {$Beatlesque} power {\ballad} {&"Voices,"} a song that two members of {$CT} cut with {$John Lennon} back in 1980 ({&"I'm Losin' You"}), the jamfest {&"Gonna Raise Hell,"} plus tracks sung by other members -- {&"World's Greatest Lover"} ({$Rick Nielsen}) and {&"I Know What I Want"} ({$Tom Petersson}). Also featured are guest appearances by big-name fans {$Billy Corgan} ({&"Just Got Back"}), {$Slash} ({&"You're All Talk"}), and {$Art Alexakis} ({&"Day Tripper"}). Although it lacks the punch of their 1979 classic {^At Budokan} (widely regarded as one of the greatest live {\rock} albums of all time), {^Silver} shows that the band is still having fun on stage 25 years later. ~ Greg Prato, All Music Guide

Authorized Greatest Hits
Released: Aug 29, 2000
Label: N\A

This is an "authorized" greatest hits collection in the sense that the band picked the selections themselves. It's preferable to the 1991 {^Greatest Hits} comp for its slightly greater length (16... Continue[+]

Album Description

{$Cheap Trick} celebrated their 25th anniversary in the best way possible. In a handful of major cities, the band did a brief residency, performing one of their classic first three albums in its entirety on three separate nights. And for their stay at {~Cabaret Metro} in their hometown Chicago, they added a fourth night, where they ran through {^Live at Budokan}. {^Music for Hangovers} collects 14 highlights from their stand at {~the Metro}, including selections from the encores, where they dipped into songs from {^Dream Police}, {^One on One}, and {^Next Position Please}. In this context, the music is stripped of the novelty -- after all, it's not every day that a band decides to run through a classic album, in its original running order -- and left to stand on its own merits. Astonishingly, the record rivals the legendary {^Live at Budokan} and, at times, sounds harder and rocks harder than that album. They may be doing oldies, but their hearts are in it, and the results are giddily entertaining. There are no new arrangements or anything unexpected (even the cameos from {$Billy Corgan} and {$D'arcy} of {$the Smashing Pumpkins} fit seamlessly into the band's sound), just tight, exciting versions of classics, from hit singles ({&"Dream Police,"} {&"I Want You to Want Me,"} {&"Surrender"}) to cult favorites ({&"How Are You?,"} {&"Madocello,"} {&"Oh Caroline"}). {^Music for Hangovers} proves that getting older is not necessarily a death knell for a rock band, since {$Cheap Trick} sounds as good as ever throughout the record. A welcome surprise from a great band. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine, All Music Guide

Album Description

Why {$Cheap Trick} never maintained U.S. success is one of rock & roll's great mysteries. The Illinois power-pop quartet of vocalist/guitarist {$Robin Zander}, lead guitarist {$Rick Nielsen}, bass guitarist {$Tom Petersson}, and drummer {$Bun E. Carlos} certainly had the goods: terrific songs and a built-in image thanks to the matinee-idol looks of {$Zander} and {$Petersson} and the dweeby charm of {$Nielsen} and {$Carlos}. {$Cheap Trick}'s two short-lived bursts of stardom occurred a decade apart: 1978's legendary {^At Budokan} live album and 1988's number-one hit single {&"The Flame."} The 1990s weren't very kind to the band. Ever the dogged road warriors, {$Cheap Trick} spent the decade opening for bigger -- and often lesser -- acts, headlining club and theater gigs, and spending the summers suffering the slight indignity of slogging through the outdoor-festival circuit. {#Live in Australia} preserves a decent performance at a Sydney club during the {^Lap of Luxury}/{&"The Flame"} era, and it also includes the obligatory behind-the-scenes footage. {&"On Top of the World"} and {&"Dream Police"} are full of energy. {&"Clock Strikes Ten"} is carried by {$Zander}'s vein-popping vocal effort. The band stretches out and jams a bit on {$Fats Domino}'s {&"Ain't That a Shame"} and {$the Move}'s {&"California Man."} Despite being stripped of its studio gloss in a concert setting, {&"The Flame"} sounds fine. By the late 1990s, however, the members refused to perform the song; they didn't write it, were forced to record it, and claimed they never liked it in the first place. The classic warhorse {&"I Want You to Want Me"} closes the regular set and the encores include the terrific {&"Surrender"} and {&"Auf Wiedersehen."} ~ Bret Adams, All Music Guide
