Amazing album. Number 5 on my overall list. I never hear anybody talk about Supertramp online, which is weird, since almost everyone I know loves them.

I agree, it seems that few people know Supertramp but those who do praise them and this album. It's on my top 10 too. Supertramp is special, and this album has some epic songs like "Hide in your shell" or "If everyone was listening"

It's crazy how no one knows them now, given how many albums they sold.

Really? I can't turn on a classic rock radio station without hearing The Logical Song or Goodbye Stranger at some point. I feel like Supertramp is still pretty well known.

Maybe I don't know young people who play classic rock stations.

The problem is they play those songs, which in my opinion are two of their weakest and they don't play the top songs on this album; this makes the people I know have a skewed opinion about Supertramp and don't dig into them.
