Cheap Trick - Budokan Ii

Fakta Budokan II' consist of the remaining tracks from 'At Budokan', the 1978 concert except for the tracks "Stiff Competition", "On Top Of The World", and "How Are You?". They were recorded during their follow-up tour. This is Cheap Trick at their best. Every song rocks up a storm, and the song list includes some of the band's heaviest, classic material from the first 3 albums. The only slow tempo number is the bluesy, and effective "Can't Hold On". Scorchin' hot versions of "Elo Kiddies", "Southern Girls", "Downed", "Oh Caroline", "California Man", and the ultimate pop-punk rock explosion - "Auf Wiedersehen".
Combining a love for British guitar pop songcraft with crunching power chords and a flair for the absurd, Cheap trcik provided the necessary links between '60s pop, heavy metal and punk.
