Band HATED Cheesy Ballad They Were FORCED Into…Until Singer SCORCHED the 1st Take!-Professor of Rock

In the 70s, Cheap Trick went on a crazy commercial rollercoaster through the music industry. Starting off slow with their first few records, they unexpectedly rose to the top of the tracks with a foreign import Live at Budokan. From there this band with the scorching duo of singer Robin Zander and Guitarist Rick Nielsen piled up platinum hits consistently and it seemed like they would coast right through the 80s. But then They HIT A WALL. Cheap Trick plummeted and their next five albums would all be… underwhelming…So in a last ditch effort to save this band’s career, their label hired a team of outside songwriters to basically write the album for them. 1988’s album Lap of Luxury. THIS didn’t go over well with the band. but from it came the band’s biggest chart hit EVER. The Flame. A smash power ballad that ruled the summer of 1988. Although loved by listeners, Cheap Track actually hated the song so much when they first heard it, their guitarist smashed the demo tape under the heel of his boot. This episode is a hell of a ride.

For today’s episode we’re covering a comeback band who made it big in the 70s, fell out of the spotlight, and then made it even bigger in the late 80s with a song the band hated but the fans loved. It’s Cheap Trick, and the story of their 1988 mega-smash The Flame. Cheap Trick was comprised of Robin Zander on lead vocals and guitar, Rick Neilsen on lead guitar, Tom Petersson on bass, and Bun E. Carlos on drums. They released their eponymous debut album on February 3, 1977… Unfortunately, the album went nowhere and was virtually unnoticed in the US… failing to break into the Billboard 200 and selling only about 150,000 copies. From there, things didn’t get much better. Their next two offerings, 1977’s ‘In Color' and 1978’s ‘Heaven Tonight’ at least reached the Billboard Albums Chart. But going to #73 & #48 wasn’t much to brag about. That being said, Heaven Tonight did feature the Cheap Trick essential track ‘Surrender.’Three albums in, Cheap Trick had yet to make much of a mark. But the silver lining through all this was they had built up a cult-like following in Japan. yes they were big in japan! There their albums were going Gold and fans treated them like rock royalty. So later in 1978, in a move to capitalized on the Far East fan-base, the band released Cheap Trick at Budokan. The record was recorded live in Japan and was initially intended only for overseas release. But it actually became so popular in Japan that Cheap Trick’s label Epic opted to release it as an import in the States. It would turn out to be their breakthrough record. Reaching a lofty #4 on the Billboard 200, the collection was powered by their well-known live version of I Want You to Want Me. Cheap Trick at Budokan
