 (3 Customer Reviews)
Though they reached their peak of popularity in the late 70s, Supertramp kept producing quality jazzed-up pop/rock. This 2002 album, their first after a five year hiatus, features "Tenth Avenue Breakdown," "Little By Little," "Broken Hearted," and the haunting title cut.
Supertramp struggled after the departure of Roger Hodgson to be seen as a viable, creative band and prove that it could exist without Hodgson. Although the albums released after Hodgson's departure were interesting, they never managed to capture the glory days of that classic lineup, nor did they reach commercial popularity. That is not to say the releases were bad -- far from it -- but they tended to lack the variety and strong song structures that Hodgson brought to the band. For this studio album, Supertramp's lineup was almost identical to that of 1997's Some Things Never Change, with the exception of the addition of Jesse Siebenberg and the departure of Tom Walsh. The change in lineup meant little, as the music was very similar to the band's last studio release (there was a double live CD released between the studio CDs). Here, Rick Davies took control of production, and it proves the album's downfall. The songs were very good, but the production was muddy and cluttered. The mix did not do justice to the music. The songs themselves had shades of classic Supertramp songs, but there were hints of world music and prog rock, which kept things interesting. The songs were basic pop/rock songs with ever-familiar alienation themes. The two longer tracks ("Tenth Avenue Breakdown" and "Dead Man's Blues") crossed over into the realm of prog rock and harked back to the Crime of the Century album, but each was about three minutes too long, and could have used some editing. ~ Aaron Badgley
2002 studio album for the UK rock act. The nine song opus features classic Supertramp sounds as well as cleverly crafted, jazz-influenced compositions. Highlights include, 'Over You', 'Little By Little', 'Tenth Avenue Breakdown', 'Broken Hearted' & 'Dead Man's Blues'. EMI. Slow Motion Music Review Average Rating: (3.7 out of 5 stars)   Rick Davies: dans la continuité
Le récent CD de Supertramp n'apporte rien de vraiment nouveau. Par contre, il procure aux fans de SUPERTRAMP des éléments de continuité. Rien à voir avec CRIME OF THE CENTURY, le récent CD est plutôt dans la lignée de SOME THINGS NEVER CHANGE. Agréable à écouter, rien de révélateur, simplement du Rick Davies à son meilleur. Pour ceux qui aiment l'ambiance musicale de SUPERTRAMP vous vous sentirez chez-vous.

Since Supertramp returned from a 10 years rest - in 1997 - they released 2 new studio albums and one double live album... All of them VERY GOOD !!!
Slow Motion is the second studio album and in my humble opinion MUCH better than the first one ("Some Things Never Change")...
Slow Motion has some fantastic songs, like "Tenth Avenue Breakdown", "Bee in Your Bonnet" and the very old (from the 70's) "Goldrush"...
If you are a Supertramp admirer, you MUST have this one...
