This is the one you know and love. Supertramp at their best. vivid with color and clarity. The vinyl, quiet with equally vivid sound emanating from the grooves. Mobile Fidelity has brought justice to this reissue in a time when so many reissues are little more than an afterthought5/5 LPReview
Illustrious cover art. Sing-a-long hooks. Contagious melodies. Symphonic rock bluster. Signature Wurlitzer electric piano sounds. Two Grammy Awards. More than 20 million copies sold.
Every aspect of Supertramp's 1979 album screams blockbuster, not the least of which is the production, the result of painstaking studio setups and months of mixing. The dynamics, color, and presence are all here in their full-range glory.
"Breakfast In America" was pretty much the peak of Supertramps career after the minor success of their 5 previous albums. Standout tracks include the big hits "The Logical Song", "Breakfast In America" and "Take The Long Way Home". For lovers of late 70's melodic pop-rock this Universal reissue is a definite buy. A true classic gem!
With Breakfast in America, Supertramp had a genuine blockbuster hit, topping the charts for four weeks in the U.S. and selling millions of copies worldwide; by the 1990s, the album had sold over 18 million units across the world. Although their previous records had some popular success, they never even hinted at the massive sales of Breakfast in America. Then again, Supertramp's earlier records weren't as pop-oriented as Breakfast. The majority of the album consisted of tightly written, catchy, well-constructed pop songs, like the hits "The Logical Song," "Take the Long Way Home," and "Goodbye Stranger." Supertramp still had a tendency to indulge themselves occasionally, but Breakfast in America had very few weak moments. It was clearly their high-water mark.
