Free Music Notes for The Very Best of SupertrampFree Music Review: missing obvious hits Hit: 2 StarsWhile others will appreciate samplings from a wide variety of albums, I have to stop and point out that this is called "The very best of..." NOT "A broad overview of...". 'Even in the quitest moments', 'Fool's Overture' are obvious hits that did not make it here, whereas songs such as 'Cannonball', 'Rudy', 'Hide in your shell', and 'Crime of the Century', are just so-so songs and not well-known at all. In fact, when I listen to them I'm not sure if I have even heard them before. 'Crime of the Century' was an album title and so is well-known, but critics considered the album and that song to be a real 'crime'!
Of course, this is pretty typical of what the music industry does: intentionally holding big hits off a "best of" album. I have grown used to it, but that doesn't mean I am ever going to approve of it.

Free Music Review: WHERE'S "FOOL'S OVERTURE"? Hit: 4 StarsTHIS IS A GOOD COMPILATION OF SUPERTRAMP MUSIC....EXCEPT... WHY NOT INCLUDE "FOOL'S OVERTURE" FROM "EVEN IN THE QUIETEST MOMENTS"?

Free Music Review: Breakfast in America was the best! Hit: 3 StarsI orderered the Very Best of Supertramp after debating between Breakfast in America (which I once owned on LP) and the former. I liked the cuts from Breakfast in America the best. I do love this group, though, they are eclectic and they have a very unique sound.
Free Music Review: Supertramp Hit: 5 StarsAfter listening to this music 20 years ago and forgetting about it, the internet radio station played it a few tunes. I had forgotten just how good this music was. I only wish that they would put it out in 5.1 surround format. This is some of the best music from the 70's. A must have for any audio file.
