CHEAP TRICK

Silver
Cheap Trick Unlimited

Cheap Trick: one of the definitive American rock bands.  Many just know them from "I Want You To Want Me", "Surrender", and "The Flame" -- but anyone who knows them beyond will know what I'm talking about.  "Silver" is a live recording, featuring two discs worth of the best performances from their three-hour 25th anniversary show in Rockford.  2/3 electric and 1/3 acoustic, you get some excellent surprise guests in Slash, Billy Corgan, Art Alexakis, and former CT bassist Jon Brant.  Yes, they might have released several live records before this, but this is the one to own.  Twenty-nine tracks clocked in easily over two hours, talk about a no brainer...
