This way: Heaven Tonight
Near Perfect Album
Of course the song Surrender is a masterpiece. Grand-slam. A no-doubter. But I can hear the LP beginning to end and find a lot to love. Heaven Tonight is Cheap Trick's third studio album, produced by Tom Werman and released in 1978. The album cover features lead singer Robin Zander and bassist Tom Petersson on the front, with Rick Nielsen and Bun E. Carlos on the back. Pretty boys vs the weirdos.
Heaven Tonight is considered Cheap Trick's best album by many fans and critics. While their debut album Cheap Trick showed the band's darker, rawer side and In Color explored a lighter, more pop-oriented persona, Heaven Tonight combined both elements to produce a hook-filled pop-rock album with an attitude. Popular songs from this album include the anthemic "Surrender", "Auf Wiedersehen", the title track, and a cover of The Move's "California Man".
Heaven Tonight is also known as the first album ever recorded with a 12-string electric bass.
