Cheap Trick brought in famed Beatles producer, George Martin, for All Shook Up. It's definitely a change of direction, and probably at least a little misguided. Stop this Game, for example, is rather horrible. Overall, I think the negative reviews were a bit unjust, because there are some good songs here, and the album seems like something of a masterpiece when compared with The Doctor. But, it's clearly no where as good as the Cheap Trick of yesterday. I wonder how the album would have fared with a different producer?
