Product Description Includes 5 Bonus tracks (numbers 11-15) About the Artist Self-titled debut album for Rockford, Illinois based power-pop/hard rock quintet recorded at Record Plant, New York. Most songs where written by lead guitarist/pianist Rick Nielsen. Although the album was favoured by critics it failed to chart in the United States. (The first four albums are nowadays considered by fans and critics to be Cheap Trick's best works). In Japan the band began to develop a fan base and their debut album became their first Gold Record. In 1987 Big Black covered 'He's a whore' for there 'Songs about f**king' album and Concrete Blonde covered 'Mandocello' in 1994 for their album 'Still in Hollywood'.

Hot! Love it!
Absolutely superb album. Hot Love drives at you like a freight train, He's a Whore...same impact. The Ballad of T.V. Violence... same thing, but more subtle. This was my introduction to CT way back in history. A punk from its birth,, I could appreciate the aforementioned tracks, and utterly loved them. The rest took the passing of time to get to grips with, but let me tell you.... this album is hard rock through and through and should be in every rocker's collection.In every punk's collection too. In fact, so should every album Cheap Trick ever released, including their Sgt Pepper's album. I would say in fairness, that this S/T album could do with a total remaster, as the original vinyl, and subsequent cd versions, seem to lack quality production but don't let that put you off. There's a live quality to it, and maybe that's what CT wanted. Invest in it, then you can rate it yourself, but don't rate it based on a cracked cd case, the colour of the jiffy bag it came in, or the quality of the Sellotape used to secure the package. Irrelevant! It's the ALBUM you're rating!
