I was never a huge Supertramp fan. I liked them okay. But I absolutely loved their “Breakfast In America” album.
Now, it’s your turn. Share a link. Share a thought. Ask a question. Anything you like, it’s fair game. It’s Saturday Night Open Thread.
What’s on your mind?
I have four Supertramp albums and I enjoy each of them… In my order of favorites
1) Crisis? What Crisis? 1975
2) Crime Of The Century 1974
3) Breakfast In America 1979
4) Even In The Quietest Moments… 1977
2 & 3 are actually tied
The video link just died, but I have a link to a hilarious story that’s been circulating on the internet since 1999. “The Dogs in Elk” story, re-printed on Chaos Manor, the late Jerry Pournelle’s website: https://www.jerrypournelle.com/reports/jerryp/dogsinelk.html.
Something totaly irreverent for a Saterday night. Or any other night for that matter…………………

That is an amazing find. I love Airplane and to find out about this is great.
I was never a big Supertramp fan, either; in fact, I don’t think that I’ve ever heard anything by them, for which I should probably be grateful.
Placido Domingo, formerly a great tenor and, now that he can’t reach the high notes for a tenor, a great baritone and the general director (he has three stars on his epaulets) of the Los Angeles Opera, was born January 21, 1941, in Madrid. He grew up in Mexico.
Here he is, singing one of the great tenor arias, Nessun Dorma (Let Nobody Sleep), from Turandot by Giacomo Puccini:
