I love this album. I still remember bringing it over to my friend’s house and he showed it to his mom. She looked at it thoughtfully and said “Now are those boys or girls?” 😊

Love that record, the use of the mandocello on Heaven Tonight is absolutely brilliant!

And what to say about Surrender, On Top Of The World, On The Radio, Stiff Competition…

That was required listening in my orbit back then.

Auf Wiedersehen: A song about saying goodbye permanently, which also rocks hard enough to serve as a final encore.

An incredible track indeed.

Their best. Don’t ignore “On Top of the World”. As far as I am concerned it is their best song and one of the best rockers of the decade.

Yes, another phenomenal track - so many great ones!

"High Roller" is still my favorite Cheap Trick song.

Yes, an awesome gritty rocker with a great bass line!
