I remember seeing them in Seattle in 1975, right after the release of Crime of the Century. One of my favorite concerts, back when Roger & Rick still could work together -
I really think this was their peak artistically, with Breakfast in America being their peak commercially.

Fool's Overture from the same album would be a welcome addition too...

From the other comments, glad to see I'm not the only one who sat transfixed by this song for hours when it first came out... |

Thanks for playing a Supertramp song that I have not heard 8000 times.

Most people seem to only like (or at least - prefer) what they liked in high school or college. That's a part of the reason why older generations will always denigrate the music of younger generations. |

You might be joking, but I am not so sure that tastes really form later on in life. I think the tastes of high school students are very important. They buy records, and they drive what gets exposure and eventual fame. When I was in HS many of the bands played here, new and unknown at the time, were loved by my fellow students. I am very suspicious about the entire notion of "learning to appreciate" some art form or another. There is always some agenda behind such efforts. |

This song doesn't get the time of day as other Supertramp tunes...especially since the release of 'Breakfast In America'...but this album is a gem and sadly overlooked by many...but not by Radio Paradise. Yippee!!!
