In 2019, the album was selected by the Library of Congress for preservation in the United States National Recording Registry for being "culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant". It was ranked number 426 in the 2003 edition of Rolling Stone magazine's list of " the 500 Greatest Albums of All Time". After several years of constant touring but only middling exposure for the band, At Budokan steadily grew off radio play and word-of-mouth to become a high-selling success, kickstarting the band's popularity and becoming acclaimed as one of the greatest live rock albums of all time and a classic of the power pop genre. It was first released in Japan on October 8, 1978, and later released in the United States on February 1979, through Epic Records. Cheap Trick at Budokan (or simply At Budokan) is the first live album by American rock band Cheap Trick, and their best-selling recording.
