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?

Another Supertramp fan here. The LP that did it for me,
"Even in the Quietest Moments". The title track &
'Fool's Overture' are favorites from that. ("There's a
lot of me got to go under before I get high." -
profoundly true in so many ways.) I listened to it over and
over back in the day before the internet and CDs. I don't
think I even knew what other recordings they had out until
Breakfast In America came around. I don't own, "Crisis
What Crisis?" or "Crime of the Century"!
Guess I'll have to fix that. I tend to like the long track,
e.g., Fool's Overture, Breakfast in America, Bro. Where You
Bound that seems a hallmark of the recordings I do own. So
do the 5 I have (mix of LPs and CDs) cover enough of their
discography? I have a cassette a buddy made of the Paris
recording. Guess that should be added to the list.
Anything else? Good thread, Donjr.
I recorded the simple striking piano chords of Crime into a ring tone and wonder if some will be able to identify it.
Hey all (again, good thread started by Donjr). I'm wondering if any of you have followed Roger Hodgson's solo work. I think I prefer his contributions to Supertramp vs those from Davies. Expect I will order "Eye of the Storm" and "Open the Door". If any of you have those, please let me know your opinion. Donjr, I hope you will not object to this minor hijack. Does seem in keeping with the spirit of your original post. Ciao.
I don't mind at all. The man whom so eloquently sang Hide in Your Shell deserves a plug. I haven't followed Roger so I hope some people chime in. I'm always looking for new music.
