Absolutely adore Breakfast in America it is a pity various disputes have kept a lot of the album from being available on various streamers, so I rely quite heavily on the cassette copy I picked up on a whim.
My dad gave me the vinyl he got in the 80s, it is definitely heavy in my rotation. Such a great album front to back.
Losing songs from Spotify playlists is one of things that prompted me to start up my Plex server. The old CDs still come in handy!
Breakfast In America is a great album, one I keep coming back to over the years.
I love this song! I was relatively young in the 70s and I never paid attention to the names of the bands from the radio. Was surprised when fairly recently I found out I’m a huge Supertramp fan, with Take the Long Way Home being my most memorable song from that time. Thanks for posting!
They’re one of those bands where I love the few songs I’ve heard, but have never gone out of my way to check out their catalogue. What album should I listen to?
Breakfast in America is a must listen, and I really love Crime of the Century as well, especially Dreamer.
Also highly recommend Paris, 1980 live album that covers a lot of ground and they sound great.
To be honest their 2007 Retrospectacle “Greatest Hits” collection is a really nice entrypoint. They are a band who were around for a little while and their sound changed. The first disk is their older stuff which has a softer jazzier balladic feel and the 2nd disk is more pop-rock/yacht-rock and is where you’ll find The Logical Song and some other classics like Breakfast in America, Long Way Home and Goodbye Stranger.
