Episode 40: ‘Breakfast In America’ - Supertramp (1979)

‘Songs Of Vision’

In 1979, Supertramp departed from their staple Progressive sound in favour of a more accessible sounding, Pop-ier album. ‘Breakfast In America’ was their most commercially successful album - selling over 19 million copies worldwide. It brought to them new listeners from the radio, yet also indulged their already committed fanbase - with a beautiful blend of Pop, Prog and Rock, ‘Breakfast In America’ was a landmark release for the group.

Laz & Felipe dive into the differing musical styles on offer in this release as well as the ambiguity behind the philosophical, societal and political lyrics.
