The singer plays guitarr on some songs.

Supertramp was a unique sound back in the day. Check out the 4K official video, more details and footage of each band member.

This could have been written this morning!! Their orchestration was the first of the kind for the time. Always amazing. Their “Goodbye, Stranger” was featured onSupernatural sparking a new generation of listeners.

[@setonhillstudios]

I agree! This song seemed to be ahead of its time indeed! Thanks for the suggestions. Can’t wait to explore more from them! 😁

[@joanholman3105]

Good hair was due to all natural food and clean water!!! The lyrics are so now. We only had ringing phones back then: same ring any phone all stuck to the wall. It was unique for the time. They were huge!

[@setonhillstudios]

Makes sense! Thanks for sharing!

[@marylreddick]

So many good supertramp songs

[@setonhillstudios]

Can’t wait to dig into more tunes from them! Have a great one! 😁

[@pamstuckey8349]

Boomer here. So happy to see someone reacting to Supertramp. You don't hear their name mentioned enough. I can tell you that their sound stood out - no other band sounds like them. And they had a message / sentiment that others were not sharing. At least that's how I felt. I really appreciate your reactions

[@setonhillstudios]

Glad you enjoyed the video! They are definitely unique and this song was awesome! Can’t wait to hear more

STRESS is the number one factor causing early hair loss in the younger generations as well as diet. Vegetarians and vegans lack enough protein necessary for proper hair growth. Also, dying/coloring hair. Just listen to our music in the 60s, 70s, and 80s and tell us we were stressed!🤣😆 Not at all! And we had proper diets. Okay, enough science. More SuperTramp, please! "Bloody Well Right" should be next. I'll be surprised if you guys haven't heard that one in some capacity before. " Breakfast in America ", "Take the Long Way Home", "Dreamer", " Give a Little Bit" are some of their greats. Such a unique sound, you cannot mistake for any other! Thanks for the great reaction😊❤

There are three keyboards and a grand piano on that stage. Roger Hodgson (Lead singer) plays the guitar. Check out "Goodbye Stranger" Roger does a cool electrical guitar solo at the end of the song. The "Digital" sound was NOT a cellphone. We didn't have them back then. It sounds like an old fashioned alarm clock (The kind that you had to wind up to set). There was NO other band like Supertramp. And apparently they were too progressive to get into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame. Check out "Child of Vision" live too.

The digital sample you heard when Roger sings "d-d-d-d-digital" was added on the fly in the recording studio, where the guys from the band played with a hand-held electronic soccer game from Mattel. They preserved that sound for the live gigs.

[@setonhillstudios]

That’s so awesome! Thanks for the info and for checking out the video!

[@itsmadfar]

Glad you enjoyed this gem of a song. I have to say I prefer the recorded version given the precise orchestration of the song. I suggest you check it out. Supertramp was a uniquely imaginative rock band. Their standard of originality and playful exploration was always met and surpassed! Truly superb!

[@GrandmasGotGraceLW]

Really great reaction to some really great music! WOW! Thanks for the fun! 😀

[@setonhillstudios]

Thanks so much Linda! Hope you had a great weekend! 😃

[@dagmar.6954]

Supertramp is a great English rock band formed in 1969. They had so many hit songs in the 70's-80's such as "Dreamer", "Give A Little Bit", "Goodbye Stranger", "Breakfast In America", "Rudy", "Take The Long Way Home", "School", "It's Raining Again", "Bloody Well Right", "My Kind Of Lady", "Cannonball", "I'm Beggin' You", "You Win, I Lose" etc.

[@setonhillstudios]

Appreciate the info and all the suggestions! Definitely have to check out more from them! Such a fun tune and obviously extremely talented!

[@durv13]

nice copy n paste dude lol

[@mikeb3365]

Supertramp was very unique, prog rock basically. Great meanings to their song. A lot of their big hits were everywhere on the radio waves. Oh, you're about to go down the Supertramp rabbit hole. Never songs that sound the same, all different.

[@setonhillstudios]

Everything I’ve heard so far has been incredible!

[@genedeahl7453]

We didn't have digital phones then...🤣

[@setonhillstudios]

🤣😂🤣

[@27thangel23]

Greetings from Canada. d- d- d- digital- one two three five. Peace, love and bellbottoms.

[@joedevlin9493]

Supertramp Musicians could play ANYTHING basically

[@jeaniceprince6309]

Roger Hodson wrote this song about his experience being sent away to boarding school for 10 long years.

[@setonhillstudios]

Ah ok! I had no clue!

[@johnfoster5295]

This band has 2 lead singers, the other one being the guy on keyboards who was behind the main singer singing harmony. That is Rick Davies. This singer is Roger Hodgeson who also plays guitar, just not on this song.

[@setonhillstudios]

Gotcha! That’s nice to have 2 guys that can sing lead! Gives you so much versatility. Thanks for sharing!

[@Karen_in_Canada]

Try Fool's Overture. It is off the charts amazing!

[@edmundmiller8229]

Great rabbit hole

[@setonhillstudios]

Awesome! I got a lot of digging to do! Thanks for watching!

[@Caradoc17]

I remember listening to this song growing up - my brother had it on special edition coloured vinyl.😊

[@setonhillstudios]

So cool! Thanks for sharing the memory with us! Have a great one!

[@FloLvsDogs]

Love Supertramp. Thanks for your thoughtful reaction. Other great Supertramp suggestions have been made so hope to see more. Mentioning their hair made me smile. Yours looks good on you Imo, but maybe we all would like different things regarding appearance. Wishing I was taller than 5'1" is one of mine 😀

[@setonhillstudios]

Thanks so much and glad you enjoyed it! Such a talented group and can’t wait to hear more! 😁

[@wendyryder2708]

That’s ok! I’m only 5ft1 as well! I’m shrinking! I used to be 5ft2 and a half! Just getting old! lol!

[@paulwilson2651]

Listen to their album Crime of the century arguably one of the best albums of the 1970;s

[@setonhillstudios]

Awesome! Thanks for the recommendation!

[@CuzKatieSaysSo]

That was actually before digital phones.

[@durv13]

yep 74 only had analog . 80's was digital . lol

[@williamjones6031]

I was this boy when this came out. I had hundreds of miles of this on my car CASSETTE. NAS-T tenor sax. "Breakfast in America". ALL of it. Sadly, today our "education system" turns our young into vegetables.🥵

[@setonhillstudios]

Thanks for hanging with us and checking out the video!

[@dsomerville5293]

Gotta check out the album cut song School from the iconic album Crime of the Century a top five best produced album ever.

[@setonhillstudios]

Appreciate it! I’ll definitely check it out! Always love digging into the production side of things too!

[@jamesstone9213]

If only they could hear you

[@durv13]

[@mitzifrancis9843]

There's a great live performance of Take the Long Way Home. Since you clearly missed seeing a guitar player in this one, you can't do better than the outro on my absolute favorite Supertramp song, Goodbye Stranger! The lyrics for both of these, as well as The Logical Song, are a big part of their lasting interest for me.

[@setonhillstudios]

Appreciate the suggestion! So much of their tunes I need to check out! Thanks for swinging by! 😁

[@mitzifrancis9843]

@@setonhillstudios I forgot to mention that, in my opinion, it's best to hear the studio version of Goodbye Stranger first. There are definitely excellent live performances, but they just don't hit as hard for me as the recording does.

[@setonhillstudios]

@@mitzifrancis9843 Thanks! 😄

[@FireMunki63]

No, Supertramp had their own sound, they were unique.

[@setonhillstudios]

No doubt! Can’t wait to hear more from them!

[@rk41gator]

Great musicians. They have a unique sound but play a lot of varied music, instruments and worth returning to. They are right up there with Genesis and Steely Dan. BTW some say Phil Collins doesn't have great hair. No denying his music.

[@setonhillstudios]

Haha 🤣 Fair point! Definitely going to check out more from them for sure. I can tell they are very high level artists just listening to this one. Have a great one and thanks for swinging by!

[@jamesbondbond8388]

SCHOOL ... the same concert !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@setonhillstudios]

Let’s goooooo! Thanks for swinging by and hanging out for a bit! 🔥

[@martinunwin9654]

Excellent reaction to the music....Pity you missed the lyrical meaning of the song.
