A albumd with a cover with a guy sunbathing with global warming behind him. Seems to be fitting with the times of 2018 so a poll about this good album is due time. Which song is your favourite

FAR far and away the best songfrom that album. Dare anyone to not have a smile on their faces after listening to it... especially when you were in a sh*tty mood prior to it.

I think this is the least listened to ‘Tramp album for me. A Soapbox Opera is the track that stood out for me, but really, I haven’t heard this album for over 2 decades. I still have it as a cassette tape which I bought in Bali.

Did Supertramp have a finest hour....?  Oh..of course that was Crime of the Century.   
Interestingly...that album, Crisis, garnered 3.58 higher than the first 2 and higher than 4 of the later albums.


and of course the answer is....Meaning....

Crisis is an album with a very warm mood and production, i find the rythem section manage to develop a more personal groove on Crisis and i also like the diversity of music on it. My week spots are the hammond heavy Aint Nobody But Me.
Soapbox Opera, Whom i would have had on the CD player in Elon Musks spaceTesla instead of Space Oddity

An almost positive answer, my dear Doc.

Slowly but surely getting there...

I like Another Man's Woman... The thing I always liked about Supertramp the most was Rick Davies pounding away on a piano.  The man is just such a great pianist and he's a hard player.  Lots of dynamics.  I could hear the man riff on a piano for days and not get tired of it.  One of my first favorite rock bands, I personally have a fondness for ALL of Supertramp's music.  For me, they can do no wrong.

Ive read interview with old bandmate of Rick, Gilbert O'Sullivan whom when he descrbied hes own tutage into music. He was the drummer in a band were Rick played piano and organ, Rick was originaly a drummer and was quite serious practioner on drums yet he found out piano was more natural to him. So he switched. Yet Gilbert expressed it such it was not inly Rick whom tought him drums, but also quote Gilbert O'Sullivan "Tought me everything i needed to know about music" which is a good resume me think.

"A Soapbox Opera"

(My favorite Supertramp album)

I consider this to be their best album by a small margin over Crime of the Century.
 
"Sister Moonshine" is my favorite on this album, and one of the best they ever did!

Supertramp is my #2 all-time.. This to me is right up there with "Crime....."

I picked "A Soapbox Opera" but I also love "Normal Day", and "Another Man's Woman"
