Cheap Trick - Gonna Raise Hell........ September 12, 2008
Steven Sly (Kalamazoo, MI United States)
Catching just about everyone by surprise Cheap Trick's "Live At Budakon" album, released early in the year, vaulted to the top of the charts and became a smash hit. All of a sudden the band went from opening act / club status to being able to headline arenas. "Dream Police" was actually already in the can when the live album was released, and was pushed back to the end of the year in order for the live album to run it's course. I don't think that "Dream Police" is quite as good as the previous studio disc "Heaven Tonight", but it has some great songs on it. The title track is an all time classic and still gets played on classic rock radio to this day. "The House Is Rockin" is a great rocker. "Gonna Raise Hell" is a track that is cool, but features a rather dated disco beat to it. "Voices" was the other hit from the album and was a rather nice ballad. The album closer "Need Your Love" was a 7 minute plus tour de force that features some killer guitar work from Rick Neilson. This track almost sounds like something UFO might have recorded. The rest of the album is just ok. Cheap Trick were at the peak of their popularity at this time in their career and "Dream Police" is a great portrait of where the band was at during this time period.

For many Cheap Trick fans this marks the end of the "classic era." While the follow-up to this one, All Shook Up, is arguably their best work, it also marked their decline in the pop music industry and fall from the top of the charts for a few years until they returned with a couple of power ballads. Anyway, Dream Police is a must have for tricksters and contains some of their best songs. Like the album before it, Heaven Tonight, Dream Police kicks off with a pop rock masterpiece as the opener and doesn't really contain a bad song all the way through. Some are better than others but there's nothing to skip on this CD. Standout tracks include: Way of the World, Gonna Raise Hell, I'll Be With You Tonight, Need Your Love.

I love this album. Probably my favorite in the CT catalog. I was so happy to hear that they were finally remastering this. What took them so Long?!! Anyway I'm glad they did because they do it justice. It sounds way better than the original version released on CD in 1990. No matter how many times I hear the title track I never grow tired of it. It rocks!! But I really enjoy "Gonna Raise Hell" for it's quirky CT approach and Robin really stretches his vocals here. Pure genius!! Not to mention the pop rock perfection of "Voices". This is truly a calssic! I love it!! Oh, yeah! And there's bonus tracks too! The live version of "I know what I want" sounds great!
