[@doplinger1]

"Child of Vision" is a MUST!!

[@cometogether999]

"Crisis? What Crisis?" is an underrated album by Supertramp.

[@Habichiwoowoo]

I love that album!

[@patrickwouters6568]

I love that album too! ❤

[@conspiracionesy]

I agree, is great album, not as good as Breakfast in America in my opiniom, but still a great album

[@kevinmcfarlane2752]

Yep. Extremely underrated!

[@Golfstar17]

It’s rated very high actually. Wake up

[@robertoneill1559]

“Just another nervous wreck” another goodie

[@hasltisl]

“Fool’s Overture” Just Do It. Saw them in concert only once. Outstanding musicianship. Each member is the real deal and the productions are top notch.And that horn/woodwind player. YEAH! The best.

[@anthonyzavarella8652]

Agree !!

[@kenjones8413]

Agree completely. Fools Overture!! From the Even in the Quietest Moments album. Terrific song.

[@chuckhutton5087]

I believe his name is John Helliwell (?), fantastic saxophonist throughout the long, illustrious career of Supertramp’s great music.

[@chrislegner4816]

Good call.

[@ptrlxc]

I saw them 3 times, twice before Roger left and once after. I preferred the group with Roger in it. Loved Fool’s Overture, loved playing it on piano. (Now I can’t remember how it goes).

[@nandlalsall8244]

Consider yourself blessed to have a wife who loves SUPERTRAMP

[@NicknLex]

I am!!!!

[@MrPolleyr]

Now you’re into my music world. Supertramp, Pink Floyd, Steely Dan, Toto….these are the songs of my life.

[@tonyjforder]

Wow - you could be me.

[@rubicon-oh9km]

This album is so good it's insane. If you didn't own a copy in '79 you were not with it at all!

[@StevesFunhouse]

Guess I wasn't with it then. The ONLY song I really liked by them was Bloody Well Right, and that was INSANELY good !!!

[@Barbaste]

bought it that year at 13!

[@bedazzled64]

I remember the first time I heard this album, over at a friends house getting ready to go out on a double date. This album was playing and I was floored. Still my all time favorite album! I have a signed copy from Roger Hodgson that I got a few years back. Love this album so much.

[@excrono]

If you don’t own a copy in 2024 you are not with it at all.

[@dyldog]

@@excronoI spent two years looking for a copy at many spots (I live in Austin TX so record stores are not hard to come by) and had to settle for a 2011 picture disc, they said it was the first they’ve gotten of that LP in months and I didn’t see another one til recently

[@kentnottingham9635]

Always loved “I’m in this dumb motel, near the Taco Bell, without a hope in hell, I can’t believe that I’m still around”. What a desperate scene they painted!

[@excrono]

Many of us are right there with him at this very moment.

[@fredrichardson3932]

The album cover was genius. That is New York City behind the statue of Liberty (the waitress holding up a glass of orange juice for a flaming torch, and instead of a Bible in her left arm, a menu for an American diner where they serve "Breakfast in America") Manhattan, behind her does have the twin towers and cups and salt & pepper shakers and fork's and knives for piers around the city.

[@shyshift]

Brother Where You Bound is a 15 minute tour de force featuring a rare guitar solo from David Gilmour(1985)

[@cortea3553]

OMG! I didn't know this! Gotta give it a listen

[@cometogether999]

Hi guys! "Fools Overture" is an epic masterpiece from this band. From the album "Even in the Quietest Moments." Glad to see you do Supertramp. This would be considered a deep cut, but it may have been released as the "B" side of a single. I always like how Rick Davies and Roger Hodgson traded off on their vocals on their albums.

[@michaelmalone3089]

Classic 👍

[@shyshift]

What they said.

[@mikeomo3235]

Yep, "Fools Overture" is a great song

[@tomvenner6030]

And John Helliwell (woodwinds, keyboards) also sings the high harmonies.

[@heathermackinnon9527]

I came here to say this, but I knew in my heart it'd already been said. :D

[@generoberts9151]

Breakfast in America was a “massive” , as the Brits like to say, hit in its day. I like Take The Long Way Home.

[@daneng3641]

"Hide in Your Shell" is one of my favorites.

[@amandathibodeau4996]

The entire album is fantastic!

[@joemercury100]

Another deep cut hidden gem off the same lp is Oh Lord, Is it Mine. Short, but very very powerful!

[@keithetherington4824]

Play , Another Nerves Wreak it's another deep cut from the same album. It's my favorite song by this band.

[@kirbywilliamson2942]

Thanks, we would gladly adopt Supertramp 🇨🇦 , but no they are from England. I do think that my home town of Winnipeg and Montreal can take credit for breaking them in North America. The album Crime of the Century, owned Winnipeg the year it came out, shout out to the UNIVERSITY OF MANITOBA FM radio station.

[@laurentco]

Everyone had Crime OTC, and Even ITQM back then in Winnipeg!

[@excrono]

If you get the meaning of “Crime of the Century”, it’s a subversive album for 2024, sometimes art is created to speak directly to the future not the present.

[@nathanboyd3179]

Supertramp are the kind of band that if you only know and listen to the hits, you're missing out on so much other great music. Try Even in the Quietest Moments, title track from the same named album. A left field suggestion would be a song called Profondo Rosso by an Italian prog band called Goblin, probably best known for their soundtrack work for iconic 70 's Italian horror movies.

[@markharris1125]

I saw Roger Hodgson in concert a couple of years ago, at the Royal Albert Hall, doing all the Supertramp hits. He's a brilliant performer and kept everyone entertained. I thought I knew Supertramp, but he played something I didn't know, 'Hide In Your Shell', and I thought it was the most beautiful song I'd ever heard. The song that got everyone up on their feet and singing was one no one ever reacts to, 'It's Raining Again'. I hope he knows how much his music is appreciated by a younger set of listeners, via reaction channels. But . . . how can I put this? Canada?????? 😲😲

[@MrHisperia2001]

Simply Great stuff from the Great Supertramp guys ☝️❤️ thanks fir the reaction ❤️☝️

[@j.jennings1722]

"Even in the Quietest Moments" is a great, hit song that's not on their greatest hits album; however, their song "Fool's Overture" is one of their best and a great Prog song. You'll love it. And yes, they do have two singers. ❤🎹🎤

[@grega8586]

I think we'd get an emotional reaction with Even In The Quietest Moments... both for the music and lyrics ;-)

[@edwardthorne9875]

This was perhaps the best album of 1979. Punk was running rampant, and then this sophisticated shiny production came out. They shot to the top, released a respectable live album, and were never quite the same afterwards.

[@markhaus2830]

I saw Supertramp Live in May 1979 at the Spectrum in Philadelphia Pa. One of the best concerts ever !!!

[@fredrichardson3932]

Supertramp is one of my favorite bands. They were so talented, and Roger Hodgson's voice only seems to get better with age. This is actually my favorite song by them, and one of my all time favorite songs by anybody, and I love Van Halen, Pink Floyd, Toto, Phil Collins, Journey, Boston, Foreigner, and many other bands. This song has a special meaning to me, that nobody else would understand, but that is OK, it is only for me.

[@woody5551]

Supertramp. Back when stereo speakers were these huge flat things and we had turntables that played something called a record!! Breakfast in America was in a class by itself. Every song was awesome.

[@boomitchell989]

You guys should lead the charge to get Supertramp in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame!

[@ibrahimfarooq3184]

I heard alot of supertramp growing up but I never heard this song before it's cool thanks guys

[@kentnottingham9635]

“I’m in this dumb motel, near the Taco Bell, without a hope in hell, I can’t believe that I’m still around” GREAT LYRICS!!!! I’m such a SUPERTRAMP FAN!!!!!

[@billwalbek1911]

This album brings back SO many memories! One of my favorite tracks!

[@kevinmerrill8074]

Okay! Ain’t Nobody but Me , is an excellent song!

[@michaelbeerbados3291]

Cannonball-Supertramp-----have I ever steered you wrong yet?? haha !!

[@mikewoodrow5878]

@NicknLex Yay, Supertramp! Okay, a banger is Another Man’s Woman, from Crisis What Crisis (which is my fave, by them). You will probably notice that Rick Davies (lower voice, piano) writes songs with a heavy influence from American jazz and R&B, whereas Roger Hodgson wrote from a British folk/pop background and influence. The nice thing about Supertramp is this dichotomy, specifically. Here are some others: Rudy, Bloody Well Right and title track from Crime; Sister Moonshine and Another Man’s Woman (Crisis), the Title track and From Now On (Quietest Moments). Keep ‘em coming! Peace from Toronto!

[@davidelswick6660]

There is not a single "pass over" song on that album! It's phenomenal.

[@EOTA564]

On a personal level I find it amusing that this album by a British band really captured a feeling of Americana in this time period. I’m British and my parents used to play this album all the time when I was a kid. We moved to the States in the late 90s in my teens and I still closely associate this album with a ‘feeling’ of America. Whenever I listen to this I’m taken to a place in my head, driving on the highway through strip malls at night past diners and motels. It’s weird to have a sense of a place before you’ve actually been there, like a dreamworld becoming reality. It may also simply be the ubiquity of American culture in Britain when I was growing up.

[@MrCRayAnderson]

It's the Statue of Liberty portrayed as a waitress, holding the juice glass, and a menu in her other arm. Great album, I bought it in 1979, when I was 14. Always love you guys and your reactions!

[@lifesabeach2597]

Played the heck out of this album in high school back in the day

[@shabozz8762]

I have seen both Supertramp live in concert, and Pink Floyd live in concert. I think that I might have been part of a small group of people who thought that hearing Supertramp was very similar to Pink Floyd. Good call Nick.

[@maryjsum]

Has it dawned on you yet that this band we all love is English, not Canadian. If you know their songs there are many references and recordings of Winston Churchill, and the war we suffered the remnants of, and saw in our early childhood, sounds of British railway stations and steam trains, heard very much on the rhythms of tracks like "Goodbye Stranger"and "Rudy'. I know because I'm of their exact generation.

[@DocRock71]

There isnt much more I enjoy than watching young people enjoying the music of my youth after 40 years!

[@ronnibee254]

About the album cover: The waitress represents the statue of liberty, the skyline in the background is made up of milk cartons, stacked coffee cups, salt and pepper shakers, and other things you would find on a breakfast table. I always loved the kind of tongue in cheek humor of the whole scene 😀

[@erikberg5363]

I always had this album on my iPod and never noticed that until I got the LP! Super cool cover.

[@alrivers2297]

In a freaky coincidence, if you hold up the album cover to a mirror it says 911 above the World Trade Center 🤔

[@duncanparsons]

The cover won a Grammy..

[@mrsouthjersey4956]

You are correct Ronnie. My brother and I figured out the album cover under the influence of a mega dose of LSD 1 evening during the first week of April 1979, a week after the albums release. I remember that evenings tripping very fondly with my brother and also thinking how much of a revelation that was figuring out that cover all on our own. Then again, the acid was soooo good back then, we probably could have magically figured out the complexity of the Beatles White album too.

[@unluckycharmz]

@@alrivers2297 the album prior to this was called ‘crime of the century’ check out the lyrics to the title track opener of that album.

[@kentnottingham9635]

I worked in our school radio station when this came out. I was in first period, got this in my box, cracked open the cellophane and put side one on the turntable. I only stopped it to turn the record over. I have never before or since had EVERY SINGLE SONG on an entire album hit me as had as BREAKFAST IN AMERICA! Been collecting every thing they did and every solo project since!

[@chuckhutton5087]

“Just another Nervous Wreck” is a great song off same blockbuster Breakfast in America album. Dark and disturbing but brilliant masterpiece by keyboard virtuoso Rick Davies.

[@progmeup]

One of their more hard-hitting songs. Rick hit the apex of that with "Brother Where You Bound"

[@balazsernhaft8337]

It is my favourite Supertramp song ( Just another nervous wreck on ) For me it is not " dark " at all, it is melodic rock , but the one of the best melodic rock song

[@chuckhutton5087]

@@balazsernhaft8337 It certainly was overlooked by many on this classic album. It’s my favorite too. By “dark” I meant lyrics-wise. Many of Rick Davies songs had a melancholic or cynical view of life. What a brilliant musician.

[@balazsernhaft8337]

@@chuckhutton5087 " Lyrics-wise " . OK . I understand . I have found on the ST fan page some remarks about this song that " it is heavy-metal song " or too heavy-song ?! To be honest I did not understand what they are talking about . Maybe that was the reason of my misunderstanding : -) . It is very underrated song , most of the fans prefers only the easy-listening , catchy pop-songs .

[@duncanparsons]

The cover art won a Grammy.. New York as a breakfast table, replete with actress Kate Murtagh as the Statue of Liberty as a waitress, 'Libby' :-)

[@Divedown_25]

Just a big Supertramp fan here. The album Crime of the Century is for me the crown jewel... an album you listen to from start to end. Crisis what Crisis great as well but even better the album Even in the Quietest Moment. This album was for me the lightest album but enormous enjoyable. Then came two or three following albums all with beautiful songs on.

[@robertheckman8013]

They did an album after Roger Hodgson left the band called "Brother, Where You Bound". The title song & "Cannonball" are great songs I know you will like a lot!

[@oakhillfound847]

They did several albums after Roger.left. Ironically, David Gilmour contributed his usual mesmerizing guitar to Brother Where You Bound...

[@robertheckman8013]

@@oakhillfound847 i know they did several. Its just that "Brother, Where You Bound?" is the only really good one to me.

[@robertw377]

Cannonball is the shit! Crank it up, drop the top and floor it!

[@progmeup]

@@robertheckman8013 I think "Some Things Never Change" is a great album too. More jazzy but lots of great songs such as "Listen To Me Please" or the hauntingly prescient title track. And even on their final album "Slow Motion" there is, among a couple of average tracks, a masterpiece like "Tenth Avenue Breakdown".

[@heathermackinnon9527]

Nick & Lex, please do "Fool's Overture" , you'll both love it. "Bloody Well Right" is great, too.

[@billg763]

I saw them live in Calgary, Alberta in1979 during their Breakfast in America tour. A great concert on a warm summer evening.

Always been a fan of Supertramp. Saw their Breakfast in America tour concert with Jean-Luc Pontie as the opening act at the Ottawa Landsdown Park for a hefty $12.00 CAD! Turned out to be the most beautiful summer evening with a light breeze for an outdoors concert. Tremendous show and the closest to the studio recording I've ever heard from a band live. Fantastic show from a fantastic band. You should listen to RUDY from the Crime of the Century album. Great piece of music.

[@MonsterSound]

Supertramp is British, but they were successful in Canada before anywhere else. They weren't doing that well with their 1st album at first except in Canada and came to Canada to tour. I was at their show in Toronto and was a huge fan. 😎🤘 🟥🍁🟥

[@jp4333]

Don’t Leave Me Now. Great song to play along with your acoustic guitar.

[@gdavho8778]

From Roger's first solo album In The Eye Of The Storm the last cut Only Because Of You is another masterpiece to check out.

[@WilliamJones-sf5pt]

I think those songs would have sounded much better as finished Supertramp productions. That is if they received a passing grade to be included. Supertramp had a lot of songs that they played live that weren't good enough to record.

[@BrianCurran8]

Yup. If he recorded those songs with the band they would’ve been overwhelmingly massive hits!

[@alanparsonsfan]

Yes, Nick caught that smooth transition from voice to sax....See now how clueless some people now look when they use the dismissive epithet of 'Dad Rock'? They have utterly no idea.... We just keep enjoying it! So rich, so beautiful....

[@spiffymick7073]

Love this reaction. Such a gift to share music you love with someone who loves you. So great. This album is one of my all-time favourites and I spent hours and hours both listening to and examining the lp from front to back. They are from the UK. As a good Canadian boy I'd love to be able to say they were from home but alas...

[@GuilhermeSilva-rp2it]

Your parents have very good taste. The band had 2 vocalists: Rick Davies, piano and harmonica player, low voice, and Roger Hodgson, guitar and keyboard player, high voice. And a phenomenal sax player: John Helliwell, who played also keyboards and miscellaneous percussion. The kitchen, as we say in Brazil (bass / drums) was played by Dougie Thomson and Bob C Benberg. Gone Hollywood is my favourite Supertramp song.

[@Pixelologist]

Crazy that you've been so into this album for so long never having noticed that the skyline pictured behind the Waitress of Liberty is completely composed of diner items - plates, cups, saucers, salt/pepper shakers, silverware docks, etc. Breakfast in America, indeed. 😄

[@vinvizion]

I want to add my support to you two reacting to 'Fools Overture'. I think that you'll both love it and have a blast...a field day...talking about it!

[@adamp2029]

If you guys aren’t familiar with the band Jellyfish, I HIGHLY recommend you check them out. They only made two albums but both are amazing. They’re reminiscent of Supertramp and Queen mostly. I’d go with New Mistake to begin with. I’ve hooked many friends with that one.

[@michaelbaucom4019]

Supertramp is British, not Canadian( except drummer Bob Siebenberg, who's from LA)... Two vocalists, the higher octave singer is Roger Hodgson, the lower octave singer is Rick Davies Supertramp has four masterpiece albums: Crime of the Century Crisis? What Crisis? Even In the Quietest Moments Breakfast in America Two very good albums: Famous Last Words Brother Where You Bound Maybe 3 or 4 mediocre tunes, the rest very good to masterpiece To answer the last question posed by the commentators....Supertramp hasn't performed since the early 2010s....due to Rick Davies having health problems. Roger Hodgson left Supertramp in 1983 for a solo career, and there was no reunion, due to a longtime feud ( too lengthy an explanation as to why)between Hodgson and Davies.

[@cometogether999]

I absolutely concur with this comment.

[@Narpets2112]

The feud is actually between their wives. They did talk about a reunion at one point but couldn't overcome their wives hating each other. Rick's wife was managing the band at the time and apparently, Roger's wife wasn't happy about that.

[@ptrlxc]

I thought there was also some creative differences, like Styx, Roger Hodgson wanted to be more theatrical and the rest of the group wanted to rock out more.

[@michaelbaucom4019]

[@conspiracionesy]

Breakfast in America is a masterpiece, is also my favourite Supertramp album, so many great songs on that album

[@keithjones6023]

Breakfast had a 'lighter' feel than Crime of the Century and even Crisis. It had a variety of great melodic songs, one of their best albums that's for sure!

[@ikshields]

I always saw “Crime” and “Breakfast” as Supertramp’s “Abbey Road” and “Sgt Pepper”. (And the Beatles comparison is no coincidence either. ☺️)

[@jimled50jl49]

Hi, Supertramp have so many wonderful songs. Love their albums. From an album called "Famous Last Words", I always play the last two tracks together...."Waiting so long" & "Don't leave me now" the ending of which always makes me cry - It's not the words, which do plant the seed, so when the end piece comes, it's gets me every time [ & it's the album cover with the scissors cutting the wire ]....Then from the album "Crisis What Crisis" ? the first two tracks must be played as one track - "Easy Does It" & "Sister Moonshine". I think if I just write more tracks it will just drown out the one's I've mentioned. I would consider a double track as I have seen you do this before & these tracks do follow on each other on the records....It's Roger Hodgson on vocals - like on Dreamer ... & Rick Davis on vocals - like on Bloody Well Right.....both singing on Gone Hollywood. Brilliant track & album. Love this. The tracks I mentioned I play a lot, especially from Famous Last Words. Thankyou for another great reaction.....I'm now going to play those last two tracks from Famous Last Words and get my box of tissues ready. Lol

[@tomgross181]

I would add C’est le bon to the last two.

Supertramp was an excellent band! A top 5 for me! Crime of the Century is probably a top 2 or 3 album of all time for me! Perfect record that stands next to Dark Side of the Moon for me

[@NicknLex]

Agreed on Crime of the Century, definitely in my top 5! - Lex

[@ericarmstrong6540]

Roger Hodgson and Rick Davies are the two vocalists who alternate as lead vocalist in the band. Very unique for a band to have more than one lead vocalist. The trail out on this song is so awesome.

[@billhawkins1236]

I have a "promotional" copy of "Even in the quietest moments" and it seems to be better vinyl than regular vinyls, but the sound is incredible. Anything off that album would be my next step 😁❤️

[@KrombopulosMichael]

Supertramp have two lead vocalists Rodger Hodgson(high register) And Rick Davies(low register) theirs was a very competitive and sometimes hostile relationship. A lot of their songs are verbal wars aimed at each other, but their differences were obviously their strengths.

[@surlechapeau]

N&L, highly recommend their "Goodbye Stranger" and "Take The Long Way Home" and " Give A Little Bit"

[@parissimons6385]

Thanks for doing this reaction, along with many others you have presented. Here's my take on your question. Rather than individual Supertramp songs, "Crime of the Century" (1974), "Crisis? What Crisis?" (1975), "Even In The Quietest Moments" (1977), "Breakfast In America" (1979) are the quartet of LPs that I have enjoyed since first hearing them in the mid 70s, starting as a young teen. Which means that I may be your father's age... All four are consistently good albums, and each hangs together as a unit with a particular flow and sound, although of course you can listen to individual songs from any album. These come from a time when rock musicians and bands considered albums as a single entity (thinking of David Bowie, Pink Floyd, Jethro Tull, Genesis, Yes, etc), as well as then considering singles or songs separated from within that context. Btw, Supertramp in the 1970s featured two lead vocalists, Rick Davies (lower voice, who played keyboards) and Roger Hodgson (higher voice, playing guitar and keys), with backing vocals from at least two other band members. As it happened, I saw and heard them in concert in August 1979 on the "Breakfast In America" tour, which was a memorably good event. And yes, you're quite right, the "BIA" album cover is a representation of NYC made up of diner items. And since you asked about other bands, if you're interested in an obscure 1970s art-rock (and somewhat progressive rock) band, please check out 801. This band was co-led by former Roxy Music band-mates Brian Eno and Phil Manzanera. Their first release was a live album, and that is spectacular in terms of musicianship. And it includes a fascinating cover of The Beatles' "Tomorrow Never Knows". Expect that you may know that Phil Manzanera, a fine guitarist and solo artist, has also played both on recordings and in concerts with David Gilmour... Speaking of solo guitarists also known from work with bands, not sure how much music you have heard by Steve Hackett, who left Genesis after Wind & Wuthering. That could be another route to explore.

Gone Hollywood is fantastic, too!

4 of the 5 are British, drummer Bob Siebenberg is from LA

[@springy-2112]

@@michaelbaucom4019 Yeah , i was referring to Nick saying they were Canadian like Rush ..but yes they were formed in London either way they were amazing live . I only got to see them without Roger Hodgson but they were still brilliant .👍🏻☮❤

[@murdockreviews]

I think the 'they're Canadian' comes from their early years when apparently they got promotion/funding from a Canadian impressario which helped their career taking off.

Title song is catchy as well. My favorite line is "Can we have kippers for breakfast, Mummy dear, Mummy dear?"

[@randyschwader1202]

The live album called.. Paris.. It's got all the songs and it's incredible!!

[@chago4212]

Great son guys! Never heard it before! Thanks for sharing!

[@zitabraun1176]

This brings me back to a dark time in my life. Maybe why I had a harrd time listening to this album for a lot of years.

[@TheCornishCockney]

WHAT a band. There was something in the water in Britain for 3 decades at least. In my mind,our greatest gift to the world.

[@rudolfbecker4313]

But not everywhere in Britain .... some people got the wrong water and created punk and more strange stuff in the 80s :-)

[@stretchgilbert]

Thank you for this. Not a big Supertramp fan. But Goodbye Stranger is one of my all time favorite songs but this is amazing ✌

[@danielschwartz1228]

You got to do Just Another Nervous Wreck. Another great song from Breakfast in America.

[@drywizardinc]

You guys actually get it! Wow 👌. The end of this song 🎵 😢 😍

[@blindonion]

The live in Paris album is killer!

Supertramp were an English rock band formed in London, England in 1970.

[@alberthilt]

Yes!!! SUPERTRAMP! Awesome band! You need to do "Brother WhereYou Bound"... Actually, just pick an album, close your eyes, and point a finger... any song will do! All the Best! ALinCAL

[@sandite5]

Man this is one of the first songs I can ever remember. I remember hearing the piano and being scared for some reason. Then the guitars hit and my brother and I would dance around the room like mad men. I can remember that so vividly with this song it's unreal. I am so happy you all broke down this song! Such a good video!

[@NicknLex]

Wow it’s awesome how music can transport you back to those moments. Thank you for sharing them with us and happy you enjoyed this! :) - Lex

[@shannonbennett987]

Just one of the best albums ever made.

[@kendudley3553]

Hey Nick and Lex, I have a suggestion for later Supertramp. Try "It's a Hard World" off of the 1997 Some Things Never Change album. The cover art is cool on the album...and this song is Super-Supertramp. Breakfast In America was the #1 Album of 1979 - try Child of Vision. It is a "deep cut" as you were mentioning. Ken

[@mikemustang3791]

I had not listened to Supertramp since 1979 when I bought this LP. At that time I only listened to the pop hits(my young unexploring mind) I came across this cut about 2 years ago and now I have been totally immersed from Crime to Even In the quietest and of course the non-hits on Breakfast as well as Crisis. The 4 LP trifecta, not many bands pulled this off.
