I'm listening in July 2024. Those days never to be seen again but we still got this great 70s music which I've listened to while in prison from suffolk county new york for a crime I did not do. 43 years in prison but I'm finally free but had music like this to keep me going ... and still going Tommy mcvie loves it

John Bonhams favorite group which is high praise indeed. Supertramp was loaded with percussion. Rick became a master percussionist before he moved over to drum on the piano. So, you know Bob Siebenberg had to be great. Rick as a youngster started off faking the organ in order to get a job. Supertramp is the perfect blend of blue sky Michael Jackson played by Roger mixed with a more heavy grounded Black Sabbath played by Rick - the main difference being that Roger not only could play an instrument, but multiple ones.

@fredrickneitzche6748 It's not when you were born that matters most. It's how the music impacts your soul. Does it grip you, envelope you in its melodies, does it move you, groove you and suit "your cup of tea." How does it all travel within, delight you, embrace you, cause you to sin. Matters not what your age Let the music 🎶 🎵 dance within thee And bring out your glee. For matters most Is the impact within thee.

I have noticed that with several other Midnight Special videos that have been posted to KZfaq. I am wondering if the people posting the videos replaced the soundtrack with the studio version. I noticed this with a posting of Prince's "I Wanna Be Your Lover", and, I believe with a posting of Starbuck's "Moonlight Feels Right". With the Starbuck song, someone else posted the same video with the live Midnight Special track, which was how I confirmed this.

Please stop saying they were “underrated”. They were huge and deservedly so! Then time went by, as it does, and new trends and new talent comes along and it becomes their time to shine. Rinse, lather, repeat. It always has been that way and always will. Otherwise music would have never moved past Frank Sinatra, teenybopper music in the 50’s and Elvis. It’s not like it lessens their legacy one bit.

I remember back in 1983 when I was only 11 years old Supertramp was invited to a German TV show and they accepted on the premise that they were allowed to actually play live, which was pretty uncommon. They were probably fed up with all the lip syncing. They played It‘s raining again and had to do Crazy as an encore because the audience went wild and demanded it. Good memories.

My Uncle is Rodger, just love everything Supertramp, saw them for the first time as a full band at 3 to 4 years old and I still remember it. But I have the utmost respect for Rick and without their very different styles Supertramp wouldn't have been amazing. One of the Greatest bands of all time. And very unique.

Huh? They were absolutely massive in their era. Worldwide too. Everyone, I mean everyone I knew listened to them. They were in heavy rotation on FM, too.

Just that! They’re not mentioned nearly as much as they should given what they’ve contributed and achieved and I think thats largely because they stopped touring and recording years ago. But ask anyone today under the age of 35 what they think of Supertramp and they’ll say WHO?

My older sister got sucked into a ultra fundamentalist religious group and said I could have her devil worshiping album(Breakfast in America), and wasn't holding back what would become of me if I listened to it. I was still pretty young then and had thoughts Roger Hogdson might have made a deal with the devil since his songs were so damn good. As I got older and wiser (didn't take long), I've come to put this album in my all time top 5 ever. Lyrics and music aren't from the devil. Lyrics are from experience and music is from incredible talent. I eventually learned some of the keys and guitar parts when I was able to buy the equipment. Genius!!
