Truly amazing LP. Supertramps best album. So much emotion in all the songs
tightly written pop rock lp. One of those ones with very few wasted seconds. super fun album. great cover and asthetic.- 9/11 was just Supertramp trying to be logical all along!
- Does anyone have feedback on a pressing that features Libby with two other people black and white picture disc.
Edited 10 months agoIt should be possible to figure out the date the back
cover photo was taken based on the visible headlines (Glasgow Herald ("Callahan slams tax brakes on spending"); Manchester Evening News ("Boy, 15, Dies In Train Horror"); Oxford Mail ("Secretary Held After Shooting"); the band member in the purple sweater (sorry, I don't know his name); the only part of his newspaper I can make out is its title (Advertiser) and the main headline ("Strike threat to BL jobs")).
Edited one year agoWeird trivia: If you hold the LP front cover up to a mirror the "U" and "P" in "SUPERTRAMP" reads out as "9 11" right over the twin towers, and the cover picture is supposed to be the view from an airplane. I see posts on the internet making conspiracy theories out of this, but as the album came out in 1979, it's obviously just a sad coincidence.
such an amazing and fun album. im 21 but remember listening to this back in high school just digging it back out gives me a lot of memories
Edited one year agoEasily one of the Best Drum sounds put down on album. Headphone listen require to hear all the detalis. Child of Vision sounds magnificent. States that Supertramp Produced Breakfast in America but who got the perfect drum microphone set up and deep rich drum sound. Was this Davies and Hodgson or the engineers?
PERFECT ALBUM!
Such an amazing album from start to finish, beautiful blending of instruments that make for some addictive melodies, great vocal performances by Roger Hodgson and Rick Davies, every track has only grown on me with time
Is this the version sold at Walmart?
I can't find any newer pressings to match mine with. It does NOT say "Back to Black" on this one.
