 Topic: The Best from SUPERTRAMP
Posted: August 14 2015 at 16:55 |
|
The lovable group of Englishman who call themselves Supertramp have come to make a name for themselves throughout all the years they've active. Even while being in a surge of bands from their country and time period, they still managed to stand out. What is your favorite from them?

I'm holding back on my vote for now; Crime of The Century probably is their best, but I really love Breakfast In America and I'll see where the votes fall on those two and the two inbetween them and really think it over.

Third comment and no vote yet? Gave it up to Crime of the Century, the most probable winner here. I also enjoy Even in the Quietest Moments and Brother Where You Bound. Never got into Breakfast in America much. The album, that is, I eat breakfast every day, and sometimes second breakfast like a Hobbitt. Never have I had kippers, though.

No contest.
Crime of the Century is a bit over-hyped, but it is a solid 4* album and clearly their best.

 Breakfast in America... miles better than any other album they did. I'm not sure what you all are listening to...

Crime was my favorite for quite awhile but then Breakfast started to grow on me. Eventually, Breakfast took over the favorite slot.

Crime, then Quiet, then Crisis, then Breakfast.
I have to say I think Crisis is underrated.
