'80s Pop Hits [Sony]

'80s Pop Hits [Sony] (2001) more music like this

by Various Artists

'80s Pop Hits is a three-disc set from Sony with a heavy emphasis on ballads, many of which continue to be played on adult contemporary radio stations across the U.S. The relatively upbeat material -- like Wham!'s "Wake Me Up Before You Go-Go," Toto's "Rosanna," Luther Vandross' "Stop for Love," and Deniece Williams' "Let's Hear It for the Boy" -- ...

Authorized Greatest Hits

Authorized Greatest Hits (2000) more music like this

by Cheap Trick

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 songs) and better choice of material; the single version of "Southern Girls" makes it on this time around, for instance. Still, like that other album with ...

The Greatest Hits [Expanded]

The Greatest Hits [Expanded] (1991) more music like this

by Cheap Trick

Despite the fact that much of Cheap Trick's best material didn't come near the charts -- many of their greatest songs, including "He's a Whore," "Oh, Candy," "Downed," "Southern Girls," and "Auf Wiedersehen" were never singles -- the Greatest Hits compilation remains a good sampler since it contains such classics as "I Want You to Want Me," ...

Cheap Trick [1997]

Cheap Trick [1997] (1997) more music like this

by Cheap Trick

Titled Cheap Trick like the group's debut album, presumably because the record represents a new beginning, Cheap Trick is indeed their most powerful, direct and melodic album in years, and certainly their heaviest since their late-'70s heyday. Stripping away all of the glossy, big-budget excesses of their late-'80s and early-'90s major-label ...

At Budokan

At Budokan (1979) more music like this

by Cheap Trick

While their records were entertaining and full of skillful pop, it wasn't until At Budokan that Cheap Trick's vision truly gelled. Many of these songs, like "I Want You to Want Me" and "Big Eyes," were pleasant in their original form, but seemed more like sketches compared to the roaring versions on this album. With their ear-shatteringly loud ...

In Color [Bonus Tracks]

In Color [Bonus Tracks] (1998) more music like this

by Cheap Trick

Though Cheap Trick's second album, In Color, draws from the same stockpile of Midwestern barroom favorites as their debut album, it was produced by Tom Werman, who had the band strip away their raw attack and replace it with a shiny, radio-ready sound. Consequently, In Color doesn't have the visceral attack of its predecessor, but it still has the ...

The Essential Cheap Trick

The Essential Cheap Trick (2004) more music like this

by Cheap Trick

Since both fans and critics agree on what Cheap Trick's core canon is, from the first three albums to the highlights that follow, it seems like it would be a fairly easy job to assemble a good overview of the band. History has proven that theory wrong several times. 1991's Greatest Hits largely ignored the first three albums, the 1996 box set Sex, ...

Dream Police [Bonus Tracks]

Dream Police [Bonus Tracks] (1979) more music like this

by Cheap Trick

At Budokan unexpectedly made Cheap Trick stars, largely because "I Want You to Want Me" had a tougher sound than its original studio incarnation. Perversely -- and most things Cheap Trick have done are somehow perverse -- the band decided not to continue with the direct, stripped-down sound of At Budokan, which would have been a return to their ...

One on One

One on One (1982) more music like this

by Cheap Trick

Tom Petersson left the group after the muddled All Shook Up, which was another sign that Cheap Trick was entering a confused period. One on One, the first record the group recorded with his replacement, Jon Brant, confirms that suspicion. In comparison to their earlier efforts, the album is a little muddled and directionless, yet the group manages ...

Standing on the Edge

Standing on the Edge (1985) more music like this

by Cheap Trick

Sounding more assured with Standing On the Edge, Cheap Trick shows once again that they always had a way with a great pop tune. "Tonight It's You" is pure pop and was a glimpse of what the band would sound like in the very near future. It's flawed, but okay. ~ James Chrispell, All Music Guide

Rockford

Rockford (2006) more music like this

by Cheap Trick

Cheap Trick's recorded work has been so inconsistent for so long, bouncing back and forth between belabored attempts to reach radio and self-conscious returns to their classic early work, it's kind of a shock to discover that 2006's Rockford is a good, solid Cheap Trick record. Scratch that -- it's a very, very good Cheap Trick record, ...

Billboard Top Hits: 1988 (1988) more music like this

by Various Artists

If there's anything the Billboard Top Hits compilations documenting 1985 through 1989 indicate, it's that the period covered wasn't exactly pop music's most glorious era. Not only was there a lot of rock music being made that aged almost instantly; the mainstream had yet to fully embrace rap music, and a lot of the production qualities ...

Kuschelrock, Vol. 2

Kuschelrock, Vol. 2 (1998) more music like this

by Various Artists

Kuschelrock, Vol. 2 isn't as musically coherent as some of the later volumes in the series, as it mixes pop hits from two distinctly different musical eras -- the '70s and the '80s -- but it still functions as a handy way to obtain loads of popular singles in one two-disc swoop. The biggest negative factor might be the import price, but then again ...

Cheap Trick [1977]

Cheap Trick [1977] (1977) more music like this

by Cheap Trick

Cheap Trick's eponymous debut is an explosive fusion of Beatlesque melodic hooks, Who-styled power, and a twisted sense of humor partially borrowed from the Move. But that only begins to scratch the surface of what makes Cheap Trick a dynamic record. Guitarist Rick Nielsen has a powerful sense of dynamics and arrangements, which gives the music an ...

Lap of Luxury

Lap of Luxury (1988) more music like this

by Cheap Trick

Cheap Trick's comeback album is by no means a return to the creativity and vitality of their glory days. But even though Lap of Luxury is largely formulaic, the band's strongest collection of material in some time fills that late-'80s pop-metal formula quite well. Combining grandly romantic power ballads ("Ghost Town") with catchy hard rockers ( ...

Heaven Tonight [Bonus Tracks]

Heaven Tonight [Bonus Tracks] (1998) more music like this

by Cheap Trick

Heaven Tonight, like In Color, was produced by Tom Werman, but the difference between the two records is substantial. Where In Color often sounded emasculated, Heaven Tonight regains the powerful, arena-ready punch of Cheap Trick, but crosses it with a clever radio-friendly production that relies both on synthesizers and studio effects. Even with ...

Say Goodbye

Say Goodbye (1997) more music like this

by Cheap Trick

Two first-class tunes from Cheap Trick's artistically-pleasing but ultimately ill-fated revival. Say Goodbye delivers an irksome send-off which quotes Dylan and the Beatles. The back side "Yeah Yeah" pilfers Trick's own One on One (Ian Taylor again on board) and is a strong and snarly album cut, not filler. Both come from the '97 self-titled Red ...

Don't Be Cruel (Sony)

Don't Be Cruel (Sony) (1998) more music like this

by Cheap Trick

Like many budget-priced collections, Sony Music Special Products' Don't Be Cruel takes a scattershot approach to compilation, randomly throwing a selection of hits, cult favorites, and album tracks together. Since Cheap Trick had an abundance of great album cuts, at least on their first few records, the odds were good that Don't Be Cruel would be ...

Rock: Train Kept a Rollin' (1999) more music like this

by Various Artists

To commemorate the end of the century, Sony Music assembled the 26-disc box set Sony Music 100 Years: Soundtrack for a Century. The title was imposing, as was the idea behind it -- to chronicle the life of the oldest record label in the music industry. To be clear, Sony Music has not existed for 100 years, but the heart of its catalog, Columbia ...

I Want You to Want Me (1992) more music like this

by Cheap Trick

No rock record collection should exist without Cheap Trick's first three albums. But if you really want a budget (actually not that cheap) sampler, I Want You to Want Me should suffice. Of course the explosive miracle "Surrender"makes an appearance, and "Dream Police" packs almost as brilliant a punch. The tinkly studio original of the title track ...
