(10 Customer Reviews)
Often forgotten, and when finally remembered it is usually for the often tedious, but huge-selling Crime Of The Century. This record cuts away the pomp and keeps it comparatively simple with some memorable pop songs and lyrics, for example, in the title track a simple statement, 'take a look at my girlfriend, she's the only one I've got', or the ridiculously simple rhymes in 'The Logical Song', and the painful truth of 'Goodbye Stranger' and 'Take The Long Way Home', which are further irritatingly catchy songs. Sadly Supertramp were not able to build on this excellent collection although they still have a loyal following.

Breakfast In America Music Supertramp Breakfast In America Songs Breakfast In America Music Breakfast In America Music Review Average Rating: (4.5 out of 5 stars)    List All Reviews The End Of A Wonderful Era The era from 1972 to 1982 produced some of the most interesting and diverse music. Supertramp, Yes, Styx, Boston, America, Steve Miller, Van Halen, Eagles, David Bowie, Pink Floyd, Queen, Led Zepplin...it goes on and on. No one sounded the same and each sound couldn't be duplicated. When was the last time you heard a thought provoking song that was also beautiful? Has there EVER been a beautiful rap song? Does Hip-Hop sound meaningless or irrelevant to you? When will the next great era in music begin? Well, for now I'll just have to wait, and while I'm waiting I will be listening to this brilliant piece of work which never seems to get old. Thank you Supertramp.

SUPERB AFTER ALL THESE YEARS EXCELLENT TO HEAR AGAIN! Submitted by mlmagan (Corona, CA, USA)  Was This Review Helpful? Yes No
Immigration Imitation Well, not a total fake; the band seemed to be some British ensamble with heavy Yankee overtones who came to America and cut an album which was a sort of an explanation of what deportation would be like for some star struck foriegner wanting to be a Hollywood movie star. Enough said, I suppose. Best remembered for the hit "logical song". Musically the album has depth and mood but the lyrics tend to flop about and whine in the shallows every now and then. Other times the band achieves a wonderful synergy, the best being "child of vision", a Brit's opinions of brainwashed Americans living in Coca Cola land.

Breakfast In America
$6.59 While there had been McCartney-esque pop elements in Supertramp's accessible brand of art-rock from the beginning, EVEN IN THE QUIETEST MOMENTS represents a definitive shift from proggier tendencies towards a more commercial approach. Coming as it did before the band's major commercial breakthrough, BREAKFAST IN AMERICA, it foreshadows that album's straightforward pop-rock approach, while still retaining a touch of the early artiness.

Breakfast In America
$18.99 Make yourself at home in the music of the moment, of a love, of a lifetime. Jenny Lynn Golding's uncanny talent for molding simple lyrical and instrumental themes into a delicate, yet visceral sound suggests personal reflection; the result is a juxtaposition of resonance, words, and emotion that brings listeners to say "I know she wrote that song about me." Since her debut in Blacksburg, Virginia, Jenny's favor has spread among regional audiences in Virginia, New York, and her newfound home of Yellowstone National Park. Her self-titled CD, which emerged as something to pass among friends, has sold out and is now in it's second pressing. Dubbed "reminiscent of the great Joni Mitchell," by the Floyd World Music Festival, Jenny's contemporary folk style hints at influences from artists such as Dar Williams, Kate Wolf, and Nancy Griffith. The simple a cappella and hand percussion of You Can't Get There from Here tells a universal story. Written in a stick-shift farm truck, while running late and out of gas, "behind the slowest guy in line," ...
