“Not sure if I could pick any actual favorites...I absolutely love the first two in this thread, Long Way Home and Solsbury Hill. I probably have a dozen other Supertramp favorites too...Rudy, School, Crime of the Century, Breakfast in America...”

I LOVE Supertramp. Nice to see someone else appreciate them. My older sister had the “ Breakfast in America” album. Even though I was only 8 when it came out, I would listen to it almost every day.

Agree with “Long Way Home” as the best song off that LP.

I had Crime of the Century and Even in the Quietest Moments on LP, and an earlier one I can’t remember...Have Crime of the Century now on CD, still listen to it a lot. Never had any of the others.

Also had a cassette of Roger Hodgson album with HAd A Dream (Sleeping With the Enemy), excellent stuff, Had A Dream is a fantastic song too. He played a lot of instruments, one thing that always impresses me.

I played everything in the band room in high school, so I appreciate people like Ian Anderson, Michael Olfield and Paul McCartney who can play almost anything.

Which reminds me...

One of my all time favorites, Tubular Bells, by Michael Olfield. He played everything but some of the drums I think it was, and some vocals by his wife. He also did an album called Hergest Ridge, good but not as good as Tubular Bells. Tubular Bells was also the theme from the movie “Exorcist”.
