CHEAP TRICK "heaven tonight" cd, 1978
career stats:
studio albums.................17

this album...............#48 US...#84 AU

"surrender".............#62 US...#32 AU...#79 CAN
"California man".......no chart action
the band's third album and second for 1978...
they were trying to find a sound on their debut...
found it on their second but they didn't know it because this one is more softer than that
one, I guess they were still searching to a degree, or trying to expand on that second one...
trivia: this is the first rock album that uses a 12 string electric bass according to Wiki...
album features a cover of The Move's "California man" and possibly their signature tune "surrender"...
their second album contained a track called "oh caroline", this one has "oh Claire", I guess they were stuck on girls names...
even though their sound is softer on this one that the others I own, I still like it..
I LIKE THIS ALBUM
worst track: Auf Wiedersehen
best track: how are you?
