Supertramp


Particularly the album 'Paris' which ive always thought to be one of the greatest live albums of all time although some beg to differ. The song 'you started laughing' will forever stay with me as one of the greatest songs ever performed live in concert. Are there any Supertramp fans amongst us that might share their admiration for the band?

A few months ago, I bought the Supertramp 2-Disc Cd "Retrospectacle-The Supertramp Anthology" and it has become one of my favorite Cds. Excellent band, excellent songs. I have almost all of their albums on vinyl too.
My favorite is Crime of the Century. I think Supertramp got a little overexposed later in their career. That being said, their first few albums stand the test of time and
Paris captures a lot of that spirit.
I have a sealed copy of Paris as a back up to my nearly worn out copy. Great album. Also a big fan of Crime of the Century and Some things Never Change.
Big Supertramp fan here. Unfortunately never did see them live in their original form but did see Roger a few years back in a very small venue - great show! Retrospectacle is a great compilation but shame on them for not including "Hide in your Shell"...
"Crisis, What Crisis?," their follow up to Crime, is one of my favorites. It is often difficult to write the next album after the big one that put the band on the map, but with this one I think they succeeded. "A Soap box Opera" is amazing in its writing and performance. And then of course a couple of records later they hit the big, big time with Breakfast and it seemed every Honda Accord in 1979 in a parking lot was blasting this out the back with the hatch open.
