4 stars 1 Gone Hollywood with this piano in the distance that rises, that swells and that lets the vocal duo explode; what SUPERTRAMP would become hard? Well the sax and it calms down, the progressive verse with the hypnotic metronomic piano; the rolling, the rumbling of pads always works wonders to announce the hysterical chorus, captivating with its unique choirs; little nervous guitar riff and the finale, the tamed screams and the finale that stretches, phew we haven't forgotten anything 2 The Logical Song keyboards, castanets, typical voice, yes I thought it was a woman at the beginning; stereo pads, at a time when that was a sure thing, in short the verse, the chorus, everything is perfect, maybe listened to too much on the radio, it doesn't matter, the languid air that resonates in my head, go hand claps and we go into second, go sax now; the rest listen again I'm silent 3 Goodbye Stranger for the endless melody that has nothing extraordinary except to have entered our memory, look for why; the ending that never ends I don't like, otherwise I didn't see the time go by 4 Breakfast In America or how with a simple piano and a voice and a rhythm and again this famous pad of Bob and this trombone and that's it... manage to create the quintessence, I forgot the clarinet and the na na; masterpiece 5 Oh Darling for the bucolic nursery rhyme that comes in 2 rounds mode, yes I didn't know them before 'King King 2'; in short I didn't like the fade, otherwise I was lulled by the chorus.

6 Take The Long Way Home for the piano, the drum roll, the voice, the melody, the choirs, the almost phrased vocal with the melting organ, in short only good 7 Lord Is It Mine ah this languorous start with the solemn piano, ah this false start, the pop prog movement and this organ again, ah this rise and this roll of the drums, Dougie's bass which had made my new speakers vibrate, only happiness; well it's very subjective as feedback but well some of my colleagues 8 Just Another Nervous Wreck ah if one was needed, it would be this one; the title which brings nothing new, repetitive with these aggressive choirs, the top piano à la Jerry Lee LEWIS; only the guitar floats, in short those who love it are probably bigger fans than me 9 Casual Conversations for the suave sweetness, to take as an interlude 10 Child Of Vision sit down wait Bob here it is it pops, it spurts, it's gone; the song that is imprinted ... coca cola I don't like but I like to hear it; well the choirs that play on the instrument, the melody that is played, the Jerry piano that goes very well, this slope that suspends you on the edge of your chair, there is no more progression but the latency becomes the progression; the air that never ends, oh yes the final sax I had forgotten it, in short only happiness with not much finally, if the sound SUPERTRAMP.
