Supertramp - Is Everybody Listening? flac mp3 download

Very nice music from one of the all-time biggest bands. Captured live in Cleveland, Ohio, USA in 1976, the CD is a UK digitally remastered release about the "Crisis..What crisis" tour. The band gets a good performance in concert. The 12 songs belongs to the Crime of the century (8) and Crisis, what crisis (4) albums. Roger Hodgson in inspired vocals, especially in "If everyone was listening" and "Hide in your shell". Rick in his own way make a great performance in "Just a normal day" and, of course "Crime of the Century". The master of ceremony, like always, is John Helliwell. Track Listing: School, Bloody well right, Hide in Your Shell, Asylum, Sister Moonshine, Just a normal day; Another man's woman, Lady, Dreamer, Rudy, If everyone was listening, Crime of the century. Includes a nice 8-pages booklet in fine presentation with sleeve notes by Jon Kirkman and photos. The sound quality is suprisignly mediocre, though, given Supertramp's usual attention to sound quality (seems like they considered their concert sound guy, Russell Pope, a member of the band). There's distortion on some of the "louder" passages, which is distracting. Overall, this is nice, if bittersweet record, since it reminds how good they were when they were good, and how much they're missed today (by me, at any rate).
