Cheap Trick In Color on 180g LP from Audio Fidelity
One of Rolling Stone's 500 Greatest Albums of All Time Mastered by Kevin Gray
"Mastering Engineer Extraordinaire Kevin Gray Managed to Transform This Record Into a Diamond" --TONE Audio
1977's In Color is Cheap Trick's second full-length release and the songs and music are as impressive as the band's debut. Melodic, gritty and just a rockin' good time, the album is one of rock's best ever sets of lip-smacking, hip-shaking, guitar-driven, harmony-coated super-songs. In Color contains the studio version of "I Want You To Want Me," which would go on to become one of their biggest hits a few years later when it was released on the At Budakon album, along with four other tracks from this record ("Hello There," "Big Eyes," "Clock Strikes Ten" and "Come On, Come On"). These original versions have all the energy of that classic live set.
Producer Tom Werman understood the band's pop dynamic and brought out the best in the individual members, resulting in pop/rock written and performed as close to perfection as pop-metal/power-pop gets. Aside from the craftsmanship, the album has genuine heart and a fun attitude. Cheap Trick is a band that never took itself too seriously as famously illustrated on the gatefold LP jacket where singer Robin Zander and bassist Tom Petersson are captured in full color astride motorcycles on the front cover while drummer Bun E. Carlos and guitarist Rick Nielsen are in black and white and upside-down, on the back. "Mastering engineer extraordinaire Kevin Gray managed to transform this record into a diamond, bringing out layers of previously unheard detail that on original pressings remained buried in grunge. Multiple spins revealed major treasure, yet the booty will be delivered the second you drop the stylus down on the short intro track “Hello There"…All of the other standard audiophile criteria are passed with flying colors (pun intended): quiet surfaces, a flat and centered pressing, and a package that features a stunning cover replete with a healthy clearcoat finish. Awesome." --Jeff Dorgay, TONE Audio, Issue 38, June 2011 Cheap Trick In Color Track Listing: 1. Hello There 2. Big Eyes 3. Downed 4. I Want You To Want Me 5. You're All Talk 6. Oh Caroline 7.
