- Guys, what's going on here? What happened to the band that recorded "Crime of the Century" and "Breakfast in America"? Maybe they all got sick and some crappy replacement band stepped in? Or the record company kidnapped them? How else could such bland and forgettable pop songs be sold under the name "Supertramp"? Come on people, let's start the search. Someone must be holding them hostage in a basement somewhere or something like that. Trust me, they're out there somewhere. Supertramp would never have put up with such a bland and heartless impersonation! I mean, there's at least two straight up traditional love songs on the damn thing!
In all honesty tough, this is an incredibly sad album. Not because the music is so emotionally impactful, but because I've never felt so clearly that the old Supertramp is gone. No wonder Hodgsen left after this one. There is no love, no story and nothing special in this album. Now I'm not going to say its bad. Infact, it is kind of a standard album, and I have a lot of these kinds of standard pop albums. They're fun sometimes. But "standard pop album" - that's just not what Supertramp is for me. If you want a standard pop album, I guess go for it, but if you want Supertramp, you can pass on this one, except of course if you want the last studio album with Hodgsen on board. But honestly, he might just as well not have been there.
"Did you get all you want?
Did we see the whole show?
So, where's all the fun
that we used to know?"
"Waiting So Long", the penultimate song on this album. Sums it up perfectly for me. I didn't get all I wanted, and I've really just got the same question left. - My copy of this is on translucent purple vinyl that looks black unless you hold it up to the light. Much like some of the versions of Synchronicity by the Police.
- The song Bonnie on this release is messed up in the beginning within the first few seconds of the piano opening.
- This is the Supertramp album to have in any collection because all the songs contained within are so great. While the song "It's Raining Again" may be the only single remembered and loved, another single "My Kind of Lady" also should be remembered to its nod to the golden oldies and the sax solo that closes out the song. A must-have for any music lover.
