4 stars The absolute first album I listened to, was the In Paris double album, Had an error at "hide in your shell"... the small listenable part had an incredible sound, I buyed crime on the century... What an album! Incredibly good!

School: Can be something slowdowned after heared the Paris-version, But such better sound... An amazing good starting-track!

Bloody well right: Quite strange... I don`t understand the point with it... Cool song, but ot the best!

Hide in your shell: 2nd best song supertramp have made ever, (after Fool`s Overture) Extremely good, absolutely the best of the album! The only thing that`s bad is the end. I hate the shrieking "Oh, we`re such damn fools" and the background sound, but else, it`s an superremarkable song!!!

Asylum: First I hate that track, now it`s kinda better, But the ending lyrics are a little bit... not very melodical...

Dreamer: Rocky thing... but it is one of the badest Roger songs, still pretty good!

Rudy: The longest song in the album, The first Asylum-like part is halfway to perfect, and then it builds up to an enormous flush of sound, and the second part is good. The short third part ends very good. Should I describe Crime of the century in one song would I go for Rudy.

If everybody was listening: Worst Roger song ever. The only song that wasn`t in Paris really sucks! Bad melody and worse lyrics!!!

Crime of the century: The ending awesome title track, stops as the first begins with Davies` harmonica. One of the best Rick songs!
