History
Early years: 1968–1977 In 1961, Nielsen began playing locally in Rockford, utilizing an ever-increasing collection of rare and valuable guitars. He formed some local bands with names like The Phaetons, The Boyz, and The Grim Reapers. Finally, Nielsen formed Fuse in 1967 with Petersson, who had played in another local band called The Bo Weevils.
Fuse released a self-titled album for Epic Records in 1968, which was generally ignored. Frustrated by their lack of success, Fuse, which by then included college dropout Bun E. Carlos on drums, moved to Philadelphia in 1971. Nielsen and Petersson spent a year in Europe, then returned to Rockford and reunited with Carlos. A few months later, Carlos asked Beloit, Wisconsin native Zander to join a new group they named Cheap Trick. Fuse is the debut rock album by Fuse, released in 1969 (see 1969 in music). ...

The band played local shows around Rockford, southern Wisconsin, and the Chicago area for a few years while they developed a unique stage show. Cheap Trick also toured constantly, opening shows for The Kinks, Boston, Santana, and other headliners, and played as many as 250 shows a year. At the same time, the band developed a large fan base in Japan. Epic signed the group in 1976, and released its self-titled album in February 1977. The debut got great reviews but didn't sell. Their next two albums, In Color and Heaven Tonight, were well-received also – Heaven Tonight, with its teen anthem Surrender, is considered by many critics and fans as the group's best album.

Budokan brings success: 1978–1981 Not one of Cheap Trick's first three albums made it into the Top 40 in the United States. In Japan, however, all three albums became gold records. When Cheap Trick went to Japan to tour the country for the first time, in 1978, they were received with a frenzy reminiscent of Beatlemania.[2] During this tour, on April 28, 1978, Cheap Trick recorded a live show for their loyal Japanese fans at the Nippon Budokan. When that show was released as a live album titled At Budokan in 1979, their American obscurity changed for good. The description Gold Album is applied to recorded music albums that have sold a minimum number of copies (in the US, currently 500,000 sales). ...

At Budokan launched Cheap Trick into international stardom. Initially intended for release in Japan only,[3] the album went triple platinum in the United States and reached #26 on the Swedish music charts.[2][4] The smash track was the live version of "I Want You to Want Me", a song originally released on In Color. It reached #7, and "Ain't That A Shame" peaked at #35. In the United States, the Recording Industry Association of America awards certification based on the number of sales albums and singles have made. ...
One song from At Budokan, "Need Your Love", had already been recorded for the next studio album, Dream Police, which was released later in 1979. The title track of the album was a hit single, as was "Voices," but the work was panned by critics.[3] By 1980, when All Shook Up was released, Cheap Trick was headlining stadiums and arenas. All Shook Up was produced by former Beatles producer George Martin, reached #24 on the charts and was certified gold, but the album's high-class background didn't save it from descriptions like "Led Zeppelin gone psycho."[5] One song from the All Shook Up sessions, "Everything Works If You Let It", appeared on the soundtrack of Roadie, and Carlos and Nielsen participated in sessions for John Lennon and Yoko Ono's album Double Fantasy.

Post-Petersson years: 1981–1987 Shortly after the release of All Shook Up, Petersson left the group to record with his then-wife Dagmar, which resulted in a short-lived project and one five-song E.P. called "Tom Peterson (sic) and Another Language". Pete Comita initially replaced him, and shortly thereafter Jon Brant became Petersson's steady replacement. The first album recorded with Brant was 1982's One on One, produced by Roy Thomas Baker. The following year, Cheap Trick released Next Position Please with Todd Rundgren as the producer. In 1985 they were reunited with Jack Douglas, who had produced their debut album, which resulted in Standing on the Edge.

Over the course of the 1990s the band experienced several new lows when Sony Music, the successor to the band's CBS Records contract, put Cheap Trick's name on several budget compilations including Voices, I Want You To Want Me, Don't Be Cruel, and several others without their prior knowledge, consent, or agreement. Zander's eponymous record, produced by Jimmy Iovine, was released in 1993 and quickly cut out. ...
The group left CBS – or was dropped by CBS – to sign with Warner Bros. Records, but following the poor performance of 1994's Woke Up With A Monster, Cheap Trick decided it was time to go back to the basics. They concentrated on the strength of their live shows, which were near-legendary, and they decided to release new recordings to independent labels instead of major companies. Over the next few years, several bands who had been influenced by Cheap Trick gave them opportunities to open for them. [citation needed] Warner Bros. ...

In 1997, Cheap Trick signed with indie label/distributor Red Ant/Alliance, and released Cheap Trick.

Rebuilding: 1998–2003 Cheap Trick began to rebuild in 1998 by trying to restore normal relations with Sony and the music retail community. They established their own record company, Cheap Trick Unlimited. They toured behind the re-mastered re-releases of Budokan: the Complete Concert, and their first three records. One of the multi-night stands from this tour resulted in Music For Hangovers, a vibrant live effort. Amid much criticism, Cheap Trick Unlimited sold the CD exclusively on Amazon.com for 8 weeks prior to releasing it in stores. To support the record they headlined, co-billed with Guided By Voices, and also opened for Pearl Jam. Amazon. ...
