begins with a quite interesting and thorough band documentary, from sources as diverse as talk shows, formal interviews, and what seems to be casual band discussions. Then what follow is live footage. The shows themselves are quite good, with only minor sloppy playing, and decent sound quality (though drums are way too low in the mix!). The production is good, and the videos in the bonus features are alright as well. The Supertramp fans will be really eager to watch this, and hearing about a band's history is only interesting for huge fans of that band.

For me, Crime of the Century is one of the most outstanding recordings of all time. There are many moments on this album that send shivers down my spine, an occurrence that I like to call an 'eargasm'. There are not many other bands that do that to me.

I agree totally guys, the band was so great live on top of the great success in the studio. An enormous part of that, was Bob on drums and Dougie Thompson on bass. Live they were beyond even the Pink Floyd live because of these two rhythm powerhouses!!! The power chords were just so pure and powerful that I would give almost anything to see and hear that again.

The use of so many different chords to change the mood, dynamics and feel of their superbly crafted songs is really great with the harmony of their voices, the drums and amazing sax. They haven't received anywhere near the recognition they so richly deserve. Keeping together and being so professional for the sake of the quality of the songs is an achievement in itself. They must be put into the rock and roll hall of fame. So many other bands have entered that aren't a patch on Supertramp.

Band supposedly waited to take the stage to allow fans to arrive in ridiculously bad traffic. The Eagles had a preseason football game across the street the same night. Had to park near the I-95 on-ramp and walk to the arena. Great, unforgettable show!!!

I was only 13 when Crime of the Century found me in 1977 & soon bought the two following albums which I played to death in spite of most kids my age being into punk or disco . It was a very exiting day when I first heard Breakfast & loved it to bits but for some reason I’ve never been inspired by the Paris album or one single live bit of footage ! I’m forever greatful though for the impact the lyrics had upon my take on the ‘ grown up world ‘ as a nipper . ( Supertramp & Zappas’ first two albums which I’d gained at the same time as Crime ) 😃❤️👍

The sax playing on logical song really stood out and was very complex and brilliantly played and his professional way of playing through a slight blunder was so well done that he just carried on as if nothing happened. The saxes together really makes Supertramp stand out and be different, original and brilliant but the pressure to do follow ups to crime of the century and breakfast in america must be hard to cope with but to play such a brilliant show so well really takes some doing and they really are a great supergroup and i really enjoyed listening now on my 63rd birthday as this brings back happy memories in the late 1970s entertaining 2 sweet swiss au pair girls in Wimbledon😂❤

Absolutely killer in Bloody Well Right. Hodgson may be more known for the voice, the wurlitzer and the 12-string, but he is a very good electric guitarist...always such tasteful parts esp. on Davies' songs. They knew things were splitting up but love how on stage they are all in the zone as performers, clearly enjoying themselves. I've heard both Hodgson and Davies' say how touring was "easier" and the enjoyable part (interesting as its the opposite of many other bands). Course, who couldnt enjoy being in such a band of incredibly talented musicians, all 5.

It can be difficult to do that work. Employees won't always get along. There will sometimes be friction. At other times, Roger will start crying and run off high up top onto the mountains where he will pout a lot, start looking down on everyone, and write his own songs. Yet, the whole idea is to take a boring orderly square and turn it into an interesting spontaneous circle. To do that requires friction, not getting along, lots of shouting, and throwing tantrums.

I still think that Famous Last Words, their final album with Roger, should have been a double-album set, the second following their 1980 live album, Paris. These plans were shelved after Rick and Roger disagreed as to the direction of the album, and I think the fuel crisis also played a part in making FLW a single album, as A&M believed marketing two double albums in a row would be expensive; this is also when you consider that Paris was initially supposed to have been a triple album (3 record) set. Among the original plans for FLW included having Rick's "Brother Where You Bound" and "Ever Open Door," both of which eventually appeared on Supertramp's 1985 album Brother Where You Bound, as well as those songs Roger wrote that later graced his 1984 solo debut In the Eye of the Storm, including "Hooked On a Problem" and "Had a Dream (Sleeping with the Enemy)."

When I first started dating my loved one 4 years ago… we had just made love and she asked me what music was playing in my head , as we are both huge music fans…. That’s right, I said SuperTramp,. 😮. Well as soon as I said it, I knew made a small mistake ….. well needless to say I had some explaining to do…. We are both children of the ‘60/70s…. She remembered Super Tramp, but it had been years since she heard them. So, I turned on my killer vintage Marantz stereo( which she loves), blasted some Super Tramp…and explained my way out of trouble and into her heart ❤️. I told her that after making love to her, my mind was sparkling like a SuperTramp song…. When she heard “give a little bit of your love to me”…. We looked at each other and knew we were right for each other. We still chuckle about how deep that foot went into my mouth, but we have never looked back… I have a wide range of music …. But maybe only a few bands can cause my mind to sparkle like SuperTramp …. And of course my special woman can top them all. True story….

Nearly all big label LP's, no matter who, were largely handled by CBS pressing plants. Aside from RCA, which had their own... But there were contenders all of a sudden. An audiophile release of Breakfast was available, then the others released by MFSL, BREAKFAST was released by their own label not MFSL. Also, at the time I would listen to albums I liked using phase cancelation, sometimes called "stereo difference" to dissect the production. BREAKFAST, was well produced regarding that, as everything was meticulously placed in the stereo sound stage with a light halo of ambient reverb, and no phasing errors. Those really stuck out as distortion in recordings that had that problem. Or ones that had off center mono sources. Taken apart like that, Breakfast held up well and sounded just like a live performance. The ones before had a less live sound and as Soundstage goes, certainly not bad, but like seeking a 3-d picture made up of several 2-d flat images. The images themselves would have depth and texture, where in the older productions, they were well-rendered 2-d images, or for the sake of this, individual mono recordings, assembled into the Soundstage. Every sound on Breakfast seemed to eminate from a stereo source, as in live.

I had tickets to see Rick Davies Supertramp back in '97, but they cancelled at the last minute. I got to see Roger in 2014 though, and that made up for it. I've avoided watching live Supertramp recordings until I could actually see the live. It's been a long wait and I'm not going to live forever, so here I am. Thanks for posting 'Total'. Great to see these guys at the height of their game.

I love Supertramp. I have loved them since a friend introduced them to me when I was 14 in 1979. I've always been interested to find out much more about them, but it seems they are a band who had very normal individuals producing amazing music. There is no scandal, sex or drugs, just Rock and Roll. So therefore there is no "amazing" story to tell and nothing of real "interest", apart from 25 minutes of fairly normal interviews out of 80 minutes of footage in this "documentary", which is mostly made up of live shows. Don't get me wrong, I think that's great. Why does it always have to descend into drugs and debauchery? Why can't we just have five normal guys making amazing music? But it does seem to me that they are largely forgotten in the general music world, because sadly, in this world that we live in, you can't be quiet and brilliant... I hope they are happy and content with all of their achievements and their lives in general, because they deserve to be...

I and a friend became band groupies when they toured around our area- Toronto, Buffalo New York and even went to see Roger solo here in Vancouver at a very small venue-all shows were well produced, sound extraordinaire. And yes each concert is a Journey of the mind. I took up Alto Sax with John Helliwell's multi instrument talents inspiring me. I also play piano, any musician can appreciate- their 'pure' sound without programmed tracks- Except for Fools Overture etc. Miss them much, still play their records.

'School' was always my favourite song, but loved to hear Rick and Roger singing 'Rudy' in the four or five 'Live' Concerts I went to. 'Another Man's Woman' would always be a highlight later. Ironically the crisis began during 'Crisis, what Crisis?' Very sad end.

I followed Supertramp from their very first concert at the High School of Commerce Auditorium in Ottawa, Canada. Saw every concert in Ottawa and Montreal, QC. A British friend of mine had turned me on to Crime of the Century. Then purchased the self titled album and Indelibly Stamped. I have everything the band ever released. It's unfortunate that Canada receives such shant attention to the success of the band. They were more popular here than they were in the USA. They only became popular there with the release of Breakfast in America. Shame on you Roger and Rick. We helped to make the band the success that it was. Apparently you have forgotten or overlooked this. Patrick Sicard

I wish there was more on the creative process. Who are the songwriters? Who composes the other instrument's music? The instrumentation is so amazing. It's got that classical style, so much going on; changing rhythms, keys, multiple vocals, and the inclusion of horns always makes for so much musicality. And check it out, you can hear the words! Wow!

Io amo entrambe le voci, la loro personalità e il loro talento, la loro profonda diversità, penso sia stata la loro differenza a farli grandi, infatti appena nel '83 Roger andò via, per trovare successo da solista, purtroppo, lo dico con tanto rammarico, nessuno dei due ebbe più tale folgorante success! Quindi per voler essere due "Primedonne", li abbiamo "persi" entrambi. Ma li amerò per sempre😢.
