Awesome Album, But What's With the Changes!? Oct 22, 2009 This is a great album, even greater now in its completeness. But I was shocked to hear that the version of "Goodnight" on "The Complete Concert" is different from the one on the original album. I loved how Zander's voice gave out several times during the first few lines of the song on the original album--he had rocked so hard his vocal cords couldn't hold up. Awesome! On this complete concert, his voice sounds fine all the way though! What gives!?
You can hear the old version on the MP3 sample that Amazon makes available for those purchasing the original CD. Compare for yourself--the difference is marked.
Anyway, I'm disappointed to find that the complete concert is not just the old album with the left-out songs added. I don't know if the version of "Tonight" is a version from a different night or if they "fixed" the original one. Either way, a disappointment. Still, overall a classic and worth picking up.
ROCKING AT THE BUDOKAN Sep 12, 2009 Twelve years since the Beatles' Budokan performance, here came Cheap Trick, performing songs from their ground-breaking show, that would be released in 1979, and catapulted them into world prominence. Here now is the expanded collection of all of the songs the band performed .High spots include such rockers as "I Want You To Want Me", "Surrender", "Ain't that A Shame","Clock Strikes 10", and "ComeOn ComeOn". This set has to be on the Top Live Albums list of many people.
finally Jun 15, 2009 2 cd 20th aniversary set. wish this would have been a double album release back in 78. one of the top 10 live shows of all time

Terrific concert! Oct 25, 2008 Cheap Trick was a moderately successful band in the late 1970's that was a regular resident of the rock charts, but it hadn't yet translated into major mainstream success. They had, however, achieved success in Japan and decided in 1979 it was time to try to capture the energy they showed their audience...and it was brilliant to do this in Japan. The album captures the manic showmanship of guitarist Rick Nielsen and the power and presence Robin Zander's flexible voice provides. Even the rhythm section takes it to a whole new level live, aptly displayed on their fun take on "Ain't That A Shame" and the then-new song "Surrender". Oddly enough, my favorite moments are the ones added by this expanded set - the bluesy, powerful "Can't Hold On" (originally released in a 1980 EP called "Found All The Parts") and the high energy of "Auf Wiedersehn" and "California Man". The manic opening "Hello There" and closing "Goodnight Now" always make me smile and remind me, that I'm listening to a band that LOVED performing. And on this night, they felt their audience like few bands ever did - Zander and Nielsen in particular fed from their hysterical audience, seemingly kicking up their energy as the night went on. The live album is not a big deal anymore, and this album reminds us why it used to be - because in the 1970's, some rock artists really cared if their audience was having a good time. Cheap Trick really, really, did - and if you can't hear it on "Budokan", you're deaf.
