The sound you were asking about is from a guitar with a Wah-Wah peddle and they have 3 keyboards and a grand piano on their stage. Find this live in Paris 1979 It's more fun to see them at work. They're all musicians who can actually play instruments, which is quite different from today's performers who use computers and fake most of what they're attempting to do. Please check out "Another Man's Woman" live It's amazing to watch.
You love SUPERTRAMP, then it would be very interesting if you reacted to what is considered their absolute masterpiece: "Fool's Overture". It's impossible to remain indifferent when listening to this song, impossible to be indifferent to the lyrics and music that form this sublime composition! You will certainly not regret this discovery. Thanks.
Man, you are so putting me in touch with how strong was my reaction to this group when I first was introduced to them back in 1974! I was a 15 year old sportswriter back then for the old Vermont Sunday News, and my sports editor, John Cunnevalis, was coming to myself and my friend and mentor Ed Beckwith (a massive Beatles fan; taught me about them. I was a huge Elton John fan at the time, taught him about them) and saying, Danny, Eddy! You guys got to hear this new group, Supertramp! He'd give us a whistle and make an "ok" sign with his thumb and forefinger and say in a low voice, "Danny, Eddy, Supertramp, Danny!", and then whistle again at us in approval. Cracked us both up, but we both soon learned when we listened to the then current Supertramp album, "Crime of the Century" just what a talented new group this was at the time. So yeah, bring it on! Would love to completely go down the Supertramp rabbit hole! One of the most underrated bands in history!
A mountain of songwriting and performance talent. My favorite band in high school (before I re-discovered the Beatles). They were also my daughter's favorite band in high school, and she's 25 years younger than me.
Very cool that you took the time in the middle to research Supertramp's sound and how they made it. The Wurlitzer electric piano thing is definitely a new piece of information for me. I knew they had a distinctive sound to their music; until now never really knew how they did it!
Dude, as a musician of many years in a music lover of all kinds of music, absolutely loved that brief Deep dive you did into something really specific, like the Wurlitzer piano. The Hammond B2 Oregon was probably the most famous at the time, but it was so easy to compliment it with the Wurlitzer electric piano, and then to fill out the trifecta, you've got the Rhodes electric piano, which is a different sound as well. All three of them are iconic. It's great to see you just really getting into this man.
You're experiencing the engineering and production Genius of the great Ken Scott. Assistant engineer on the Beatles White album, engineer and producer of Ziggy Stardust album, first two Supertramp albums, Dixie Dregs What If album, Jeff Beck There and Back album, Stanley Clarke School Days album and Missing Persons Spring Session M album.
Hey Mug, I’m an old guy who was fortunate to have seen Supertramp live twice . Once in 1973 and the second time in 2013….thats 40 years apart and yet they sounded amazing both times. Everyone in the band can play multiple instruments and all sing extremely well. Their concerts are unforgettable. Their live sound is amazing. The first time I saw them, they had the recording engineer from the album doing the sound for them at the concert. It was perfect. That sound you heard on Dreamer near the start was an electric guitar with a Wha Wha pedal on it, they use that in several of their songs. For me….Supertramp and Pink Floyd are tied for my “top all time favourite band”. The 70’s was the best era for rock music. Cheers from Canada 👍🎸😎🇨🇦
Great synopsis at the beginning, Anwar, of your take on Supertramp so far musically. I am in agreement on your take on them. It seems you've picked up their "essence" musically.
Rick Davies is the lead singer at the beginning of the song and mainly throughout, whereas Rodger Hodgson does the call and response vocals part with Rick.
No, you have that opposite. Roger is the one with the high voice and singing lead. And the call and response is Rick and then Roger and John together responding.

Supertramp are definitely top shelf, iconic music! Old fan from back in the 70's in their heyday here!!!

Breakfast in America is my favorite song by them, with Goodbye stranger as a close second.
Oh yay!
Nothing like coffee and Supertramp!
It's truly "Breakfast in America"!

Love Supertramp: "Breakfast In America:, "Bloody Well Right" and "Goodbye Stranger" Nice reaction Mugs!
"Take the Long Way Home", "Give a Little Bit" -- all are entertaining!
You're smiling at the beginning because you just nailed them. . .that bright, bouncy piano line again! It's definitely the essence of this song!
Very cool that you took the time in the middle to research Supertramp's sound and how they made it. The Wurlitzer electric piano thing is definitely a new piece of information for me. I knew they had a distinctive sound to their music; until now never really knew how they did it!
Mugs. You must hit CHILD OF VISION by SUPERTRAMP. I’ll say you’re welcome now.
His vocals starting at about 5:30......chills....tears.....so absolutely beautiful.
Great reaction! ✌️🙏💪

"Give a Little Bit" may be their best.

I saw Supertramp in concert in the 70s. Really was a good concert and believe it or not the ticket price was only $3.😊😊
Great one, Mug - check out “Rudy” too (my 2nd favorite on the album) - and the video DOES enhance the video on this one!

Electric guitar playing muted strings through a wah pedal with generous amounts of added reverb... That Sound
I think 'Even in the Quietest Moments' is their best song, from the album with the same title.
Wha wha guitar effect is that sound
You are ready for Bloody Well Right. Edgier Super Tramp. Go get it.
Take the long way home
Goodbye stranger
Give a little bit
Breakfast in America
All hits
Hope there's no video with this one! Supertramp tracks are so beautiful, so worthwhile, I hate anything to distract from them!
that sound would be studio its like taking a drumset and turning it into bongos with eq and talent
Supertramp .... Live in Paris !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

@@donnakubiski5572 well I guess I do! Thanks for that correction Donna! Would like to get this right going forward!
Check out Dela by Johnny Clegg and Savuka. South African. Great. Was in the movie George and the Jungle from the Nineties.
Is that a composite blue filling you have?
Check out Rudy or School
It is muted guitar strings making that sound
That’s muted picking running through an effect
THEY SUCK always have !!!!!!!!!!!
