The album featured four hit singles: "The Logical Song" (#6), "Goodbye Stranger" (#15), "Take the Long Way Home" (#10), and the title cut (#16).

YOU EVEN HAVE IT. NO ONE LISTENS TO RECORDS ANYMORE". A sound argument, if you pardon the pun. Yes, this classic has been out on the CD for years. I won't even talk about the songs. By now, this album has been talked about and played on the radio for so long with its legendary tracks like the title track, "The Logical Song", "Goodbye Stranger", etc., you wonder if anything new needs to be said...Then the reissue on vinyl came out.

Interesting tidbit of information,did you know that one of the promos for the album cover was going to be a set of salt and pepper shakers tumbling down on the front cover? I absolutely love Supertramp and I really like Rodger Hodgson. He has that indistinguishable voice you would recognize anywhere. This is definitely a keeper in my album collection. |
