For the first time, the DVD premieres the previously unseen historic 1978 Tokyo concert, aired only once on Japanese TV. Bonus features include a new interview with the band plus two songs taped at 2008 Budokan Anniversary Show. Two CDs feature At Budokan: The Complete Concert, newly remastered, while an additional disc includes the audio counterpart to the DVD plus four bonus songs not included in the original film.

5.0 out of 5 stars Be Careful With the Packaging, November 22, 2008
This review is from: BUDOKAN!(30th Anniversary DVD+3CDs) (Audio CD)
In the late 70's I always wondered if there was video available of the Cheap Trick At Budokan concerts. So, for me, there was no decision at all when this 30th Anniversary set was released that I was going to buy it. I already owned the Complete Concert on CD, but this is Cheap Trick at their best, so a back up set is no big deal. It is good to see and hear alternate versions of the songs we have known for so long.

As to the packaging, THANKS to all the prior reviewers for the warning. I used extra care when removing the discs and no scratches resulted. I just pushed down on the sleeves a little to give the discs some wiggle room and they just rolled out with only a little effort.

No real Cheap Trick Fan will want to be without this set. It is all that I expected and more.

5.0 out of 5 stars FINALLY!!! THANK YOU!, November 12, 2008
This review is from: BUDOKAN!(30th Anniversary DVD+3CDs) (Audio CD)
WOW! If you had told me when I was 9 years old in early 1979 while I was lying on my bed listening to this album(on the yellow vinyl import, thank you LOL)that 30 years later, I would be lying on my bed as a 39 year old WATCHING the concert on a wide screen high-def TV with a whole concert from the other night on CD to boot.....INCREDIBLE. It's amazing when I think about it. Between the bootlegs, internet, on demand TV...we are SOOOO spoiled these days....it's almost like another universe when I think back to my childhood in the 70s and how amazing it is that we have access to this stuff.
Anyway, the packaging does damage the discs, unfortunately, but I just put them in some cd slipcases and keep them in the box that way. It's a drag, but the content is so great, it's like Paul Stanley once said..."it's like winning the lottery, being set for life, and complaining about paying the taxes" LOL
My only gripe is that the video of the 1978 show flips back and forth, for no apparent reason, from video to film. The original broadcast was shot on video, and they put a film process on it to make it look like a movie....which I'm not a fan of...it seems to lose that "live" look to it. But that's my personal preference...it doesn't hamper the experience, but I don't know why it's in video for a few seconds usually at the start of a song, then switches over to film. Whatever. They also cut off the whole beginning of the TV special where they show the stage being set up, soundcheck clips, etc. If you have the boot of this, maybe keep it just for those snipets. The restored picture and sound are stunning...really. Kudos to Jack Douglas for whatever magic he weaved on the audio...sounds like Bun E's snare has been treated a bit on the bonus CD in some spots, my guess is that they found the master multi-tracks of that night and had some issues with the snare. It doesn't sound fake, but I'm a drummer so I notice stupid stuff like that.
The video brings back so many memories of why this KISS fan was so infatuated with Cheap Trick....the songs obviously, but the manic stage antics of Rick Nielsen, the overall presentation and energy....just captured me and I see why watching this again. I saw them live about 8 months after this was filmed...one of the best concerts ever.
The bonus CD sounds awesome...full, crisp, heavy...better than the official Budokan release in my opinion. And I haven't a/b compared the 'new' remaster of the full concert to the one released a few years ago yet, but upon 1st listen, it's sounds like it's a bit better...more full.
Kudos also to my good bud Ken Sharp on the liner notes...I know he's thrilled to have been part of it. I'd like to have seen longer interview segments, but I guess it's hard to talk about one album/gig for an hour LOL In closing, why the heck can't KISS do something this cool for Alive?? There's footage from Cobo Hall in May 1975, along with rehearsal footage from the day before doing dress rehearsals, the Alive cover shoot, etc...they could add a bonus CD of unused performances from the other gigs recorded for the album, etc. Guys...are you listening? ENJOY IT! And thanks to Cheap Trick and Sony Legacy for finally GETTING IT DONE!

5.0 out of 5 stars 5 for the material/0 for the packaging, November 11, 2008
This review is from: BUDOKAN!(30th Anniversary DVD+3CDs) (Audio CD)
This set has appalling packaging that damages the discs.

The 3 cds and dvd are simply slammed into 4 tight cardboard "notches" in a fold out pack with zero cushioning or protection. Each disc has a straight scratch that runs through the lower third of the respective discs. Its also impossible to remove the discs without pulling them slightly below the edge and thereby risking fingerprints.

On top of that, the dvd in my set was scuffed to hell and looks like a badly used dvd. One of the discs looks almost perfect - except for that ugly single scratch which corresponds to the top of the "notch".

Why the hell were Legacy too cheap to simply put the discs on pop-it hubs like almost every other box set I've seen has? Unbelievable.

I'll be returning this, but have a sinking feeling that finding a "clean" set will be impossible. I'm also going to lodge a complaint at Legacy. The material and the rest of the packaging is stellar - but the way they stored the discs in this set is garbage.
