All Shook Up is a 1980 album by Cheap Trick. It was their fifth studio album.
All Shook Up allowed Cheap Trick the opportunity to work with former Beatles producer George Martin. The album was much quirkier than its predecessor, the platinum-selling Dream Police. Many of its songs featured more complex arrangements and were less radio-friendly.
Right around the time of its release, bassist Tom Petersson announced that he was leaving the band. He was replaced by Pete Comita.
All Shook Up was certified Gold on December 30, 1980.
