Editorial Review:

Amazon.com essential recording:
Originally released as a 10-track live album in the late 1970s when live albums were all the rage, At Budokan neatly summed up this oddball power-pop/hard rock band with the added ferocity a live show brings. Tracks such as “Hello There,” “Surrender,” “I Want You to Want Me,” and Fats Domino’s “Ain’t That a Shame” were infused with a power their studio versions only hint at. Twenty years after the original concert in April 1978, the classic live album has been expanded to include nine additional tracks that make this a must-have for fans of the original. –Rob O’Connor
