Description Released in the spring of 1977, with recordings covering a two-year period from November 1974 to November 1976, All Hopped Up is NRBQ's fifth album. But in many ways it showcases a new band with a new spirit, a new energy, and a new approach. It's the first album with drummer Tom Ardolino, who joined in August 1974 at the age of 19 and entered the recording studio just three month later. His joining signals the start of the edition of NRBQ that spanned almost 20 years while gaining notoriety for their blockbuster live performances and classic recordings. Along with all these noteworthy firsts, All Hopped Up also broke acres of new and fertile ground with it's broad mix of musical styles. "It Feels Good" and "Things to You" are poppier than anything previously released by NRBQ. 1 Ridin' in My Car 2 It Feels Good 3 Cecilia 4 I Got a Rocket in My Pocket 5 Call Him Off, Rogers 6 Doctor's Wind 7 Things to You 8 Help Me Somebody 9 Still in School 10 Honey Hush 11 Queen Talk 12 Bonanza 13 That's Alright 14 Chicken Hearted (Bonus Track) 15 Do the Bump (Bonus Track) 16 She's Got to Know (Bonus Track) 17 Start It Over (Bonus Track)
