I have big eyes...but they're on the guys when they see my chest... I can't remember how many guys wrote that I had 'Big Eyes' in my damn freshman yearbook!
Cream magazine was when i noticed them because of punk music coming into it's own, long/short hair. Then went to see Kiss @ the inglewwod forum, Cheap Trick opened and I never looked back, man they were loud and good. Kiss was a joke and couldn't follow that act.
@jeffv10 Original drummer STILL in the band....Guitarist Rick Neilsen's son has been filling in on tour because Bum E, (drummer) has had some health problems. Bun DID do all the recent Sgt. Pepper live dates though.
30+ years and a pile of great albums....and NOT inducted into the RnR Hall of Fame???? Total B.S. and an insult to a band that is highly respected by most major artists.
Hell...how many bands can say they actually recorded with John Lennon? + movie soundtracks & TV show themes?
@GSand84583 i saw them at 'red rocks ampatheater' right outside of boulder colo. up in the mountains cerca 1979. and yah, they were good. i wish i could have seen sweet.
West Fargo, ND, summer of 1980, if I remember right. They played this one, of course, and sounder better than the album, it just crushed. They were young and the songs were fresh. It was hotter than hell out and my friends and I made our way into the first few rows of sweaty, half-naked concertgoers (general admission outdoors back then) and I was truly made into a Cheap Trick convert.
It's not the way you look no-no It's not the way you walk Your eyes are somethin' good You know they're clear and bright It's not the color of your hair Big eyesI keep falling for thoseBig eyes They keep calling my name You're such a losin' cause Who says you write the laws Why don't you go get lostWho says you write the laws Go on get out of here
@LovelessSeime hey i think thats it's cool that you have an open mind to good old school music..i saw theses guys in 81...i love all of todays music too..just impressed, keep rocking
I was 12 just moved from Buffalo to a Chicago burb
in the summer 77 , met a neighbor my age couple doors down,was gettin high,he played this album.I thought it was really weird,the way they looked,I was into Zeppelin /Purple and not yet open to anything else...Cool album !
Damn what an underplayed song. 1977 rocked for me.

I wish that I bought the "In colors" album before the "Live at Buddakah" album. I would have understood the second album better!
