Power-pop legends reunite after 30 years—can four middle-aged dudes still bring the teenage symphonies?
Live on Sunset Strip marks the triumphant return after 30 years of the Raspberries' original line-up of Eric Carmen, Wally Bryson, Dave Smalley and Jim Bonfanti, recorded at Los Angeles' House of Blues during the band's sold-out 2005 reunion tour.

Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
The Raspberries invented the power-pop template that Cheap Trick, Jellyfish, and Fountains of Wayne would later perfect—this reunion documents the source code.
The original band imploded in 1975 after just four albums; Eric Carmen's solo 'All By Myself' became inescapable, making this 2005 reunion a rare case of the blockbuster solo artist crawling back to the band.
