Title: Classic Rock
Review: Truly one of the great rock albums of all time. I just finished listening to this fantastic collection of songs for the nth time, and it is as fresh as when I first listened to it in college 35 years ago. Supertramp has always been one of my favorite rock bands. I can hardly call them rock -- rather symphonic geniuses who blended the best of orchestral instruments, rock and that great British sound into this masterpiece. Released in 1974 at the height of the rock era this is one for the ages. The recording quality of the re-release is superb -- as good as any digital recording and maybe better. Sadly I supposed, rock began a slow enexorable downhill march starting in the mid to late 1970's. I am a confessed prog rock fan,and I guess Supertramp sort of fits that genre, but not quite. Prog Rock has a tendency to take itself too seriously, and Supertramp is both playful and serious at the same time. Fabulous. 11 on a 10 point scale as Nigel would say! (-:
