3 stars I was never really a big fan of Supertramp when they first hit the scene although I have over the years softened to appreciate their music. I only scored three stars because I do not consider them to be progressive enough to be a true Prog band, and personally think they sit at the Heavy Rock end of the pop spectrum at best with a few songs that venture into prog territory. Crime of the Century is a good album of which I possess in vinyl form (all my music is in vinyl) and the title track is to me is Supertramp's best score and the rest of the album is pleasantly enjoyable. The only concept that ties the album together is the harmonica that opens and closes the album. I do not believe this album should be rated as an essential album and masterpiece but I do think that it is an excellent addition to not only prog rock collections but collections of any genre.
