Rick Nielsen is a huge Beatles fan and you can here their influence on him in many a Cheap Trick song. Cheap Trick is hugely underrated. Finally got Rockford and, like most said, it is brilliant. I'm a huge Beatles fan and to have Cheap Trick do such a great tribute to The Beatles and Sgt Pepper as awesome. They aren't a bunch of egotists. They play great music and respect great music. Rick, Robin, Tom and Bun E.....awesome job!
too bad for the beatles that they have the greatest album ever but none of them have been played live by themselves(white album,abbey rd,sgt peppers,let it be etc)
@larkin38 Because Yann Wenner is a dick, and He has a big influence on the inductees. RUSH isn't in there either (they're rated #1 on the bands that aren't in the hall yet.

great... a completley shit band gets to cover the greatest band of all time... more importantly the greatest bands' greatest album of all time..... I can't wait for them to be torn to shreds by people who actually like music.... i mean who the f really covers an ALBUM.... not to mention the greatest album of all time.... what a complete pile of bullsh this is i hope it bombs and he gets depressed enough to commit suicide ... or the plane crashes somewhere....
Cheap Trick got asked to do Sgt Peppers live as a Tribute to The Beatles seeing as it was the 30th Anniversary of Sgt Peppers... Sometimes people show a little thing called Respect, try it out some time
@MrHenryrules You seem to forget one little detail; Cheap Trick are great and superb but... They did not write these fantastic, classic tunes and there is no way that Robin Zander "puts the Beatles to shame"! PLEASE....
You are an idiot. No onther band could have pulled this off. Check out their Las Vegas Sgt Peppr shows on YouTube, that is if you can spell that well enough to get into it.
Going to Vegas next month to watch CT perform this entire album with an orchestra at the Las Vegas Hilton. I can't wait. This is the most excited I've ever been to see a band and I've been to hundreds of shows.
I am so jelious i have the album and the dvd its amazing, i am both a cheep trick fan and fo course a Beatles fan i need to see that live. Ive also seen hundreds of shows Cheep trick alone ive seen 5 times but i really want to see them fuly do beatles., have a great time.
Saw them yesterday in Milwaukee. I have loved them for 30 years and my love only keeps growing. I love you Robin, the best leadsinger in the whole wide world!!!
To even attempt performing this live deserves major props. That they do it justice is icing on the cake.

What are you bitching about? The Beatles music can be played by everyone, sung by everyone. It's universal.

For those of you who ever thought to question how cool or good Bun E is...........watch his right hand at 2:54. He's not even thinking about it.
jrb5353 2 years ago
You're not kidding jrb5353. He can play anything when he wants to. He's totally unselfish though so unless you're a drummer you'll never know it.

I was just thinking the same thing.......Bun E looks great! Then I saw your comment. God Bless!

5 stars for the song and the part at about 0:37, where a hand pops up in the background and waves, but not with all fingers.
