Cheap Trick: Greetings From Rockford, Ill.
Ira Robbins, Trouser Press, December 1980
Rockford, Illinois (population 140,000) has made two notable contributions to the entertainment world: John Anderson and Cheap Trick. While there is little similarity between the two — no one in Cheap Trick has white hair — their roots, outlook and ethics (industriousness, seriousness, sense of commitment) are the same.
