2 stars Unfortuantely Supertramp have never been that good at marketing themselves visually. Whether this is down to Roger Hodgson and Rick Davies both being elusive most of the time, the documentary clips contained herein are sporadic and too short. It is a shame because when they are up there on the stage with Helliwell, Siebenberg and Thompson as a unit they are so awesome. Anyway as far as the DVD goes the interviews as mentioned are poor, the live music highlights are Aint Nobody But Me from the Crisis album, From Now On from Quietest Moments and School off Crime Of The Century. The band were to lose Roger Hodgson after this 1983 tour, not to their detriment either. Rick Davies went on to release three out of four exceptionally good jazz rock progressive albums under the Supertramp banner. There is also a fine video of the underrated Cannonball song from Brother Where You Bound, guaranteed to get your feet tapping, great keyboard work from Rick Davies aka Mr. Tramp. Two and a half stars.
