What have I done to deserve this?! Supertramp songs- the gifts that keep on giving!! Thanks for watching! 🥰

Tonight the Leafs felt it all just like a cannonball!

The Brother Where You Bound tour was the first big concert I attended with about 17 and it shook my world. I have been a fan of Supertramp for some years already but that was the first time I saw them live. It was absolute fantastic even without Roger (whom I saw many years later solo as well - equaly great). They played nearly everything from Crime and all of this album and their video projections were amazing. It also was John's birthday and they gave him a cake on stage even though he said he actually always comes to Switzerland to buy a watch (manufactured in Schaffhausen...) :D

80s Supertramp! Amped up and tight!

Absolutely! An all time fave for me already! Thanks for watching and being first here today on this one 🙂 🥇

Debes estar de acuerdo conmigo que los 60 ,70 y 80 sentaron las bases de la verdadera música de calidad que nunca morirá y sin arreglos sintéticos y computadoras, intérpretes, músicos y voces reales. Tengo 65 años y disfrute , y aun lo hago . Y lo mejor en todas las corrientes musicales. Saludos Brandon me alegra que lo reconozcas y disfrutes.

The album Brother where you bound is my favorite album together with Crime. Rick did a great job after 1983 , nowdays I prefer albums after 1983.

Who knew Supertramp could be funky? Always liked this one, quite a banger, for all that it's a long way from their prog beginnings.

Tghis is a great opening song on one of my very favorite albums. If you want some more sax, check out "Better Days" and for a real experience, listen to the title track, "Brother Where You Bound". You'll be blown away. David Gilmore's guitar kills.

Despite Supertramp's huge catalogue of better-known bangers, this is my absolute favourite Supertramp track! Thanks for sharing, reacting and liking it. Love your reaction and analysis style!

Dude, I know you are focusing on older classic groups and tracks but there is a current group that you really should check out by the name of Dirty Loops and their cover of Thriller (collab with Cory Wong) that will knock your socks off! The fact that they are managed by Quincy Jones should tip the scales. Cheers!

I was more than happy when I saw what song you played today!! Of all the Supertramp albums that I have, Brother Where You Bound has to be the one I listen to the most! You know how partial I am to the title track, but “Cannonball” is an awesome song as are many others from the album. Happy weekend my friend!😊

Wow. I never expected you to like this track as much as I do. One of my favorites. I am now confident that you will enjoy "Ain't Nobody But Me" from Crime Of The Century. As much as I love 70's Supertramp, I was thrilled to hear Rick explore his jazz / funk roots on this track. These guys are great musicians who can play any style of music they wish.

Rick Davies found a groove and built around it...superb.Yes, trombone is in the middle section(along with the tasty keyboard bits). That ending synth solo really makes the song complete(the radio single version/MTV video cuts it WAY TOO SOON). Need to do " Better Days " from this album, after Brother Where You Bound, the best song on the album

Excellent Brandon - a really good album, IMO. I saw them during this tour and I don’t even remember that Roger wasn’t with them. I do remember that the Motels opened for them and Martha walked off the stage because she didn’t like the sound setup.

Yes, like 80s YES and possibly 80s ELP, I love 80s Supertramp! Nice, we both saw Martha live. Mine was around 1997 in a tiny club venue. Have a wonderful weekend!

This is the only song by this group that I ever had any use for.

I swear, when recording went digital it killed music, and we’ve never recovered

My friend... I hope the next reaction be from classic Supertramp, like the emotionals and GREAT "Bonnie" and "C'est le Bon", from this album without Roger, I just rescue "No Inbetween" and "Ever Open Door"

@@retroreactions.... Anything from Supertramp BEFORE 1983 is welcome, Know Who & Waiting are pretty good, but Bonnie (best song of the album) and C'est le Bon are another level

It have something from "Goodbye Stranger" in the chromatic bridge like James bond, a powerful groove, Jazz elements, many nice keyboards sounds, it's a Rick Davies song, but something of the previous Supertramp seems missing, the other members are less apparent. Well Roger is gone but we knew it, I'm not sure it is Bob Siebenberg drumming on this title? because the feel of this beat is much too tight and straight, that it could be made by a drum machine (I could be mistaken!), and that makes it relentless and is steeling the natural soul from what there were supposed to be. It's like Rick tried to use older ingredients for that song with newer technologies but didn't succeeded. Sorry I never could vote so high, I was probably expecting more from them. Well that's what I felt.

Hi there. I definitely see an evolution here. Let's see what I think of the rest of the album and the next. Thanks and have a great day!

Perhaps I just don't like change? I 'lost' Genesis in about 1981 quickly followed by Supertramp when Hodgson left. Like Genesis, the style changed... totally different with Rick Davies's jazzy approach. The emotion had gone.

This song was the point where I stopped listening to Supertramp. I'm a huge fan of their 70s music. Famous Last Words wasn't really that great and then this came out. No Roger Hodgson, No Supertramp. Rick Davies was the weaker songwriter with only a handful of good songs. This is just 80s pop with none of the unique style they had before. It only got worse after this.

So why are you here if you stopped listening ST without Hodgson if it is a song without hodgson ?! Big question but all know the answer
