Album Notes Cheap Trick: Robin Zander (vocals); Rick Nielsen (guitar, keyboards); John Brant (bass); Bun E. Carlos (drums, cymbals). Producers: Todd Rundgren, Cheap Trick, Ian Taylor. Recorded at Utopia Sound Studio, Woodstock, New York. Recording information: 1983. This was Cheap Trick's third album in a row made with a high profile producer identified with a specific sound--here it's Todd Rundgren, previously it was George Martin, and before that Roy Thomas Baker. And yet, the band sounds resolutely consistent. This is vintage Cheap Trick and stylistically identical with classics like HEAVEN TONIGHT. Granted, there are a few new wrinkles, notably Rick Neilsen's guitar work on the opening "I Can't Take It," which appears to have absorbed the influence of the Police's Andy Summers. Elsewhere, however, it's melodic pop-rock business as usual, with "Y.O.Y.O.Y." (perhaps the band's most breathtakingly ironic ballad), and the melodically exquisite "Heaven's Falling" being particular standouts.
