I have to say I was surprised to see so many songs from COTC and not more from BIA, since it was the most recent album.Īll in all, great performances, especially Fool's Overture, Take the Long Way Home and A Soapbox Opera. As I've never been a hardcore Supertramp fan and have been using the thread as an opportunity to get to know their work better, I felt pretty satisfied with Paris. I remember some people mentioning they missed a certain song that was among the band's most popular. It was recorded in 1978 free to Supertramp Crime of the Century. Breakfast In America is the sixth studio album by the British rock band Supertramp, released by A&M Records on 29 March 1979. I'd risk saying that Roger sounds a little better on the film's BIA version.Ĭan't say I missed any songs from the repertoire. The album was Supertramps first to feature drummer Bob Siebenberg. The table is set with the first song on side one 'School' with lyrics that suggest the damaged deranged so called norms are not to be questioned by school children, while atrocities simmer below, even 'Crimes of the Century. Yup, got to "Breakfast in America", the other performance on the film that I know by heart, definitely another date. This is Supertramps best album, although I love Crisis, What Crisis just as much, both theme albums dealing with damage. I've just noticed that the performances chosen for the album differ from those on the DVD/Blu Ray? I noticed because of John Helliwell's intro, though he insists that Paris, famous for being the cradle of many artists, makes him feel very logical.
