************************************************
ALBUM NOTES: ..................................

................ Supertramp: Roger Hodgson (vocals, guitar, piano); John Anthony Helliwell (vocals, saxophone, clarinet); Richard Davies (vocals, harmonica, keyboards); Dougie Thomson (bass); Bob C. Benberg (drums, percussion). Producers: Ken Scott, Supertramp.  ...................... Recorded at Trident, Ramport Studios and Scorpion Sound, London, England between February & June 1974.  ...................... The punishment befits the crime, and a quarter of a century later, Supertramp have been forgiven by critics. Quite why they induced such negative press seems unjustified, as 'Bloody Well Right' and 'Dreamer' sound as fresh as ever. The electric piano cuts through the speakers like a knife through butter, the treble at times hurting the ear like a heavy rock guitar solo. Both Hodgson's and Davies' voices sound rich and confident, although both are quite different. Maybe the pace slackens with the slightly indulgent 'If Everyone Was Listening' and the title track, but there are enough musical highlights to recommend this for any would-be '90s progster's wants list. .................

********************************* ????????????????????? ***************************************
in German language:

......Bandportrait:................ Supertramp eroberten den Pop und Rock der 1970er und `80er. Vom verschmusten "Give A Little Bit" zum trotzigen "Bloody Well Right", vom sirenenartigen "Dreamer" zum dramatischen "Logical Song". Immer auf dem melodischen Fuß, mit klaren Pop Prioritäten, eng gestrickten, smart konstruierten Songs, dramaturgisch perfekten Arrangements, siedelt man den Sound von Rick Davies, Roger Hodgson und Co. an der Peripherie der Prog-Rock Ära an. John Helliwell machte das Saxofon zum Lieblings-Soloinstrument im Pop-Rock. Supertramps Repertoire ist heute fester Bestandteil im klassischen Rockradio, ihr Einfluss integral für den heutigen Piano Pop und den Power Pop....................
Hits wie die oben genannten und viele mehr: "From Now On", "Goodbye Stranger" oder "Rudy", verankerten sich in den 40 Karrierejahren von Supertramp tief im Bewusstsein ihrer Fans. Um die 60 Millionen Platten haben die Briten verkauft. Das ganze begann 1969, als Davies, gesponsert von einem sorglosen jungen holländischen Millionär namens Stanley August Miesegaes, eine Anzeige im Londoner Musikerfachblatt "Melody Maker" platzierte, auf die sich der Sänger und Multi-Instrumentalist Roger Hodgson meldete. Im Sommer 1970 erschien das titellose Debütalbum der Supertramper, es schlug keine großen Wellen. Darauf zog sich zuerst der Benefaktor aus Holland zurück, und dann, bis auf Davies und Hodgson der Rest der Band. Mit neuer Besetzung (Siebenberg, Helliwell und dem Bassisten Doug Thompson) auf ihrem dritten Album "Crime of the Century" entwickelten Supertramp 1974 dann aber ihren anspruchsvollen, pop-orientierten Progsound. Co-produziert von Ken Scott (David Bowie, The Beatles) wurde "Crime of the Century" zur Plattform diverser Hits ("School", "Bloody Well Right", "Rudy" wie auch der Titeltrack). .......................Supertramp hatten ihre Nische: wurden zum Art-Rock-Pendant von Steely Dan, brachten den Pink Floyd-Sound auf die Mensa-Party, entkomplizierten 10cc, eiferten den Beatles nach. Sentimental, verliebt in Pop, voll erzählerischer Scharfsinnigkeit in den Songtexten. Das Album hat einen Eintrag im Buch "1001 Albums You Must Hear Before You Die". Eine komplette Live-Version befindet sich auf Supertramps Livealbum "Paris". Kongenialer Gegenpol zu "Crime of the Century" in Supertramps Diskografie ist ihr 1979er Studioalbum "Breakfast in America" - klar markiert es den kreativen und auch den kommerziellen Höhepunkt der Band, monatelang hielt es sich international an der Spitze der Charts. Geschuldet ist es knackigen, eingängigen Pop-Titeln, wie "The Logical Song," "Take The Long Way Home," and "Goodbye Stranger." Doch schon bei der Produktion von "Breakfast in America" hatte es Machtkämpfe zwischen Davies und Hodgson gegeben. Schwanengesang der Original-Besetzung von Supertramp ist das leicht sarkastisch "Famous Last Words" betitelte Album mit der Single "Its Raining Again". Ihre vier letzten, sporadisch zwischen 1985 und 2002 veröffentlichten Studioalben tendieren in Richtung R&B. ............

 .................. The until-recently-defunct "Mobile Fidelity Labs" audiophile album vinyl pressings were not only analogue, audiophile masterpieces and connoisseur delights, they have become true pieces of audio history and lore. These majestic recordings received a meticulous and laborious treatment like no other recordings in the entire history of the recorded sound. They are characterized by the massively extended dynamic and frequency range, mastering from the very first generation of original master tapes, almost compulsive attention paid to the detail and integrity of the pressing, and the highest quality of the material (only the "virgin-", audiophile-grade vinyl was used, and most of the titles were pressed by RCA/Victor and/or Warner-Pioneer corporations of Japan, both known for their near-obsessive attention paid to the fine sonic detail and audio craftsmanship); a special proprietary  technology was used to achieve analogue-like, warm, translucent, radiant, vivid and all-encompassing sound. To this day, many of these recordings remain unsurpassed, delivering music reproduction as close to the actual recording session as possible, without any loss of musical information inherent in the standard practice of mastering from the inferior "production" copies.  EVER SINCE THE MOBILE FIDELITY SOUND LABS TEMPORARILY CLOSED IN DECEMBER OF 1999 (ONLY TO REOPEN IN 2003), THESE RECORDINGS HAVE BEEN ESCALATING IN VALUE AND DEMAND. ............
