you people want to hear something funny. i was 17 when this came out. mom and pop yelled turn this shit down. about a year ago my 24 year old son as we were driving said to me dad please turn this shit down.. music like this will always be #1 in my heart
The whole band's still got it!! Check out the DVD "Silver"...they KILL on all of the Budokan songs! Also, the second time Zander sings"...are you ready to rock/are you ready or na-a-at" in this clip is this sh-- !!
If you took a poll of the top 25 rock vocalists, most people wouldn't even think of Robin Zander - and that's a damn shame cause the guy can wail and always could.
Of course all the girls liked "I Want You To Want Me" ,.. but there was so much more,.. I especially loved the cover of Fat's Domino "Ain't That A Shame" Bun E. Carlos drum intro + then the guitar,..!! But I must say I loved evry song from beginning to end,.. "Hello There" to "Goodnight Now" ,.. "Clock Strikes Ten" "Come On Come On" and especially "BIG EYES" ,..... every single song ROCKed,... this is what ROCK'n'ROLL's about,.....!!!
Honestly, if a kid who is young like around 16,17 growing up in this generation...you have to realize ONE THING! This band..CHEAP TRICK was and will always be considered 1 of the originals....who have designed HARD ROCK!(Yes you heard me right!)..or legendary forefathers of modern day rock and roll...RIGHT HERE!(WHO!I might add is 1 OF THE MOST UNDERRATED FUKIN' BAND OF THE 70'S AND NEVER GOT THE CREDIT THEY DESERVED EVER IN ROCK AND ROLL).
Goatskull, the original Budokan concert album was taken from two different nights. The concert was performed both April 28th and April 29th. The original album flips around from both nights. The beauty of the new release from a year and a half ago is Cheap Trick released the entire April 28th show, and also a video DVD of most of the April 28th show taken off Japanese TV. I really believe Cheap Trick's concert at Budokan was one of the top 10 concerts of all time. A truly unreal performance
@nathandm1917 "Cheap Trick At Budokan" Is actually rated as being 1 of the Top Ten Live albums of ALL TIME,.... so you really don't have to believe it,.. CUZ IT'S TRUE,.... I remember watching this on T.V. at a friend's Mom & Dad's place one Friday night sooooo many years ago,.. and it was simulcast in Stereo with our local 107.3 FM radio station out of Calgary, Alberta,..!!!
I hate to burst some bubbles, but do any of you actually have the Live At Budokan album? The audio and the video are not the same. They were spliced together.
@Goatskull YES,...!!! It was also the first LP I think I ever bought,.. I was like about 12 years old,...!!! This concert & record is as awesome now as it was back then,.. to this day I know every little bit,.. cuz I played it over & over & over in my room, and also in our lunch room we had in Junior High,...

@Goatskull YES,.... it was the first LP I ever bought,.... it was an Import,.. all the lyrics were both in English and Japanese,...... I played it over and over and over,...
What an awesome band. I saw them in Memphis this year and they still rock. Classic rock radio really needs to play more Cheap Trick songs than just "I Want You To Want Me' and "Surrender." This band has an awesome catalogue of killer tunes.
@sheephider82 I love "Surrender",.. and of course all the girls liked "I Want You To Want Me" ,.. but there was so much more,.. I especially loved the cover of Fat's Domino "Ain't That A Shame" Bun E. Carlos drum intro + then the guitar,..!! I have the entire album from beginning to end memorized,.. still over 30 years later,.. I can tell if it's from the original "Live At Budokan" album or not,...!!!! Cuz it was the first LP I ever , ever bought,..!!
I was chuggin’ down my 4th quart for the evening and checked out your page. Dude thank you for puttin’ Cheap Trick here. I went right back to graduation 1979 and almost cried. I’m turnig 50 this year, so I puked n the hit the sac instead. I’m just a fellow you tuber who like your site man. Cheers!
Everyone I knew had this album. This stuff is still fresh sounding to me. Robin Zander's bark rivaled McCartney's. A very unappreciated band far as RRHOF is concerned at least. Screw em.
Cheap Trick doesn't kick less ass because some snobs don't want to acknowledge them.
I was 14 in 1978...what a year for music. Cheap Tricks Budokan and VanHalens 1st album. Kiss was going full bore then too...gosh WTF were we thinkin there? lol
@gmartinz01'...like each lyric was a line from Macbeth'-sir, I salute you.Can I use that myself?Seen them many times from 79 onward, including seeing them open and wipe the floor with Motley Crue, flying drumkit and all, and Im seeing them again in November. Just a fuckin great band.If they dont make you smile, youre already dead...
Back when rock was fun, before it was everyone on stage dressed in black, clutching the microphone as if to strangle it and acting like each lyric was a line from Macbeth.
i rememebr spending like 35 bucks for the import album from japan....my stepdad asked me if i was retarded to spend that kind of money on an album!! worth EVERY damn penny!!
Wow! The surprised never stop coming! So is this the actual first Budokan show that was also captured for posterity on the album as well? Sounds near Identical. If that's so, then I must say that I never knew it any Vid footage of it ever existed, much less the DVD. Awesome!

@cavedweller1996 It's similar to an 8- string (note + octave) but with an extra octave. Actually not too difficult to play.

it's a pretty fat sounding setup. you can't get away with slap or ghost notes, but it's awesome for simple basslines.
