Supertramp practically *owned* 1979 with their mega-smash album from that
year, "Breakfast In America." The British band had been making creative,
irresistible pop/jazz/rock for nine years & five albums by this time, but
"Breakfast," the sixth album, was The Big One for the group, a #1 smash on
the album charts all over the world. Though certainly not a "concept" album,
the theme for "Breakfast In America" came from bandleaders Roger Hodgson
& Rick Davies, who, for this album, wanted to write songs about what it was
like to be a British person living in the USA, which is what the whole band
were doing by this time. Credit Hodgson & Davies for writing such wonderful
songs, such as the hits "The Logical Song," "Goodbye Stranger," and "Take
The Long Way Home." But even the non-hits are shimmering beauties, such
as "Gone Hollywood," "Oh Darling" (not to be confused with the Beatles
tune), "Lord Is It Mine," and the exuberant finale, "Child Of Vision," all played
to perfection by Hodgson, Davies (who both do great vocal work as well),
sax player John Halliwell, bassist Dougie Thomson, and drummer Bob
Siebenberg. This new remastered edition of "Breakfast In America" sounds
sensational, with greater boom & clarity than any CD version of "Breakfast"
that I'd ever heard before (including the now-defunct gold disc version from
Mobile Fidelity). Now you can enjoy Supertramp's all-time classic the way it
was meant to be heard. Pick it up, and enjoy this delicious breakfast as only
Supertramp can serve it. :-)
