Like CRIME, don't like Breakfast

Clearly and simply put, anybody who doesn't like Supertramp is a complete idiot. Progressive rock may not be respected by idiots, but it is highly respected by anybody who's ever picked up or sat down at an instrument. Supertramp music is blues fused with space rock, fused with jazz, fused with classical. No idiot can play it (to do it justice) and no idiot can mock it (with any credibility). And as long as you're not an idiot, the lyrics tell your story with quirky, dark, and artistic flare. The band was better with the '74-'83 lineup, but both the band and Hodgson have respectively shown only flashes of what once was.

CRIME OF THE CENTURY is a deffinative LP, they also had some nice moments before and after that.

Crime of the Century

Crime of the Century is a pretty good listen

Breakfast in America has some great singles, but come on if Boston cant get in what gives these guys any chance?

After reading the list of some of the artists already included in the RRHOF, I can't imagine why a band like Supertamp has yet to taste that success. How many crappy and meaningless people do they need to let in? I mean, Madonna? Rock and roll? Let's just state this for what it is...a popularity contest. There are many deserving artists that should be in, but as long as corporates have their way, talented bands like Supertramp will never have their just desserts.

I was torn between a three and four star rating, but when I consider the fact that Blondie, the Lovin' Spoonful, and the Righteous Brothers are in, I think Supertramp is at least as deserving. Keep in mind, I have nothing against the groups I just mentioned, especially the Spoonful. But that group really wasn't together for a long period of time. Meanwhile, Supertramp put out good-to-excellent albums for several years. "Even in the Quietest Moments" and "Crime of the Century" were their best. I only liked parts of "Breakfast in America", but they were good parts. "The Logical Song" is really good, and "Long Way Home" is great. I'd like to hear it right now.

They suck.

Classic Band. Great and simple melodies combined with awesome prog rock sound.....Timeless music. "YES" were a great band but their star is fading likemany other prog rock bands. Supertramp music still lives on.

  CRIME is one of my favorite albums of all time.\

BUT NO!

A second-tier prog band, which means that they'll never get in. Even if prog were respected, they'd have a very tough time.

greatest band ever. Supertramp music is too good for the mere ROCK label. sells short so to speak. it's nice to acknowledge genius though.

shrugg

fantastic!!

They were ok.

This is one of the worst bands I've ever heard! The singer's voice is unbearable and the songs are very cheesey!

Breakfast in America stands the test of time. This will always be a great album.

Most beautiful sound combination af all times.

Make no mistake about it,supertramp is right up there with the greats of all time PERIOD! rudyt

Great band of its era, they gave classic rock a new meaning.

Bad rock at its worst.

Much more worthy than some of their other 70's prog rock peers. Well written song that did'nt go overboard with 20 minute solos and they had lyrics that people could relate to. Breakfast In America is a great album about early adulthood. Surprisingly yes but as someone posted earlier, with Roger Hodgson.

Someone nominated Christina Aguilera to be in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame?

one of the greatest of all time classic rock at is best

Supertramp? Supertramp is Rodger Hudgson, Roger Hudgson is Supertramp. In 1983 Rodger left the band, Supertramp goes on but they not deserve the name Supertramp, Tramp is enough. With the leaving of Rodger, the Super leaves. Rodger Hodgson's Supertramp needs a place in The Hall.

Breakfast In America is one of the great albums of all time

It's only logical that Supertramp get a place in the Rock 'n' Roll Hall of Fame.

Trash. Rock's version of elevator music.

Horrible,the worst music of it's era.It was drivel then and it's drivel now.

please no!
