5.0 out of 5 stars One Of Supertramp's Very Best, 14 Jun 2006
Vastly under rated album.

This album is just as good as Breakfast in America and Crime Of The Century. So easy to listen to and lovingly created it's hard not to be impressed. Even more catchty choruses than ever before and all the famous Supertramp trademarks well in place.

Crazy:
The first track gets off to a great start. Wonderful chorus with some great catchy piano and a irresistable plodding beat. Great harmonies.

Put on your Old Brown Shoes:
Nice playful song with clapping and gospel style vocals. Very sing-a-long. Great stuff.

It's Raining Again:
One of Supertramp's biggest singles, and it's obvious why. The piano chords drill into your mind and your certain to be whistling it all day. Despite it's subject matter, it's a very jolly, Summery song.

Bonnie:
A great epic track. Full of conflicting emotions in the lyrics and the tune. Nice vocal performance from Rick Davis. Wonderful piano work, as usual.

Know Who You Are:
Very relaxing and one of my personal favorites. This song needs to be listened to rather than just heard. Peaceful acoustic work. Very nicely done.

My Kind Of Lady:
Can't help but raise a smile when I hear this song. Jolly, fun-loving with an enlightening subject matter. One of Supertramp's best songs. Roger Hodgeson is a great sport for putting on woman's vocals like he does. Wonderfully crafted. Yet another fantastic song.

C'est le Bon:
Acoustic track much like 'Know who you are' but slightly more upbeat with an inspiring chorus. It's full effect doesn't hit you until you find yourself singing it later on in the day. Just try and get it out of your head!

Waiting So Long:
A great song with great texture. Wonderful plinky plonky piano work. I'd say it goes on a little too long but it's down to opinion really. Nice to hear Supertramp doing something a little more dark and different.

Don't Leave Me Now:
Superb calming intro suddenly kicks into on of the greatest piano riffs of all time, which then in turn bursts into great horns and vocals. Sounds so emotional and desperate. An epic track, up there with the likes of Fools Overture [although not as classy].

Simply superb album. If you're a fan of Supertramp and don't have this album, I strongly suggest you get it. May take 2 or 3 listens before you grow to love it as much as I do.

4.0 out of 5 stars A shocking rediscovery!, 21 Feb 2008
By M. Mcloughlin "Bluekahuna" (Liverpool, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
i have just rediscovered this album after 26 years and what a very pleasant surprise (ok a massive understatement). How i overlooked it at the time, in the title of a Beach Boys classic, 'God only knows'. Ok one moderately duffer track but four or five great tracks, and a few in-between. Some absolutely great melodies, superb playing, and Roger definitely in form with his singing. I also thought Rick is very strong vocally on Bonnie, what a great track, in fact another one of more than a few on this album? My conclusion, i now include it with the other four great supertramp albums, as their only slightly flawed peer, and you know what, it just might actually be their best with the classic line-up. What a treasure to find after all those years. Brother i am bound forward!

5.0 out of 5 stars My Favourite Supertramp album, 7 Aug 2005
This album doesn't have the hit singles that featured on the previous 'Breakfast In America', but I prefer it. I find the music more melodic and rememberable. Less of a rock album, more easy on the ear, and so obviously less appreciated by the music press. Don't believe the negative hype. Recommended

2.0 out of 5 stars Slipping in quality
I'm afraid that this album is vastly inferior to most of their 70s output. Apart from a couple of melodic piano intros there are no classic tracks here. Read more
