2005

It was Cheap Trick's live 1979 album At Budokan that initially gained them commercial popularity in the United States.  They had cracked the Top 100 with "Surrender" a year earlier, but the live version of "I Want You to Want Me" made it into the top ten and the rest is history.  Since then they have sold millions of albums and scored hits with "Voices", "Dream Police", "Can't Stop Falling into Love", "The Flame", and the Elvis remake "Don't be Cruel".
