Hmm ,Supertramp's first and IMHOP an underrated album)

Many years ago I would go to an english public library to borrow vinyl records ;often scratched, dusty and crackly .Yet ,borrowing and taping was cheap!... It was the mid 80's and I was a latter generation prog rocker...or popper... ,and what follows are some tracks that still resonate with me as much now as they did then. The( Edits ) tracks below are melancholy and at least for me, deeply nostalgic. Yep , I do hear the Beatles hidden, only slightly , below surface.
Maybe some of you like them too.
Merry Christmas.

Tormato, if you gave it a cover like GFTO or combined them to make a double album, has some great moments.,

Well, I doubt almost nobody has heard this one.
It is about 5 years old.
And I just heard it on "It's A Jangle Out There".

Bram Tchaikovsky was also in a band called The Motors in the late '70s - I still have their first album somewhere. I heard them on WNEW-FM in NYC, which - at that time - had some DJs who played new, obscure, and cutting edge stuff.


Oh yeah!

An old favorite for certain.  The entire album is a gem in my humble opinion of course.

Underture from Tommy comes straight to my mind.  Many find this too long and boring.  I wish it was longer.

Just saw/listened to your reply—that was quite good although I didn't catch a lot of the lyrics. How did you know about Bram? All I heard of him on FM radio back in the day was "Girl of My Dreams" and that was a minor hit.

They featured Bram Tchaikovsky's first couple of LP's. I have those disc still. But I picked this up a few years ago which made listening a lot easier... https://www.amazon.com/Strange...
Great stuff that isn't played anymore.

Another one...

Wow, thanks for that memory. Had it on VHS. I’ve been following Copeland recently on FB and he’s - no surprise - still…exuberant. I love how there’s the little break where he tries to re-establish his claim that he’s the one that wanted to make Roxanne into a reggae beat.
And the whole percussion bed sounds like it might be cobbled together in pieces, which is fine, allowing for more complexity. 

If I made my fictional Best Drummer it would certainly include Copeland on cymbals/hi hat, Moonie on toms, Simon Phillips bass, and Bruford on snare.
