SUPERTRAMP - CRISIS? WHAT CRISIS? - 1975 - THREE ORIG. 8 X 10 PRESS PHOTOS + BIO

Description: SUPERTRAMP - CRISIS? WHAT CRISIS? - 1975 - THREE ORIGINAL 8" X 10" PRESS PHOTOS + GROUP BIOGRAPHY Nestled between the accomplished Crime of the Century album and 1977's Even in the Quietest Moments, Crisis? What Crisis? helped them capture a fan base that had no concern for Supertramp's commercial sound. With Rick Davies showing off his talent on the keyboards, and Roger Hodgson's vocals soaring on almost every track, they managed to win back their earlier progressive audience while gaining new fans at the same time. Crisis received extensive air play on FM stations, especially in Britain, and the album made it into the Top 20 there and fell just outside the Top 40 in the U.S. "Ain't Nobody But Me," "Easy Does It," and the beautiful "Sister Moonshine" highlight Supertramp's buoyant and brisk instrumental and vocal alliance, while John Helliwell's saxophone gives the album even greater width. The songwriting is sharp, attentive, and passionate, and the lyrics showcase Supertramp's ease at invoking emotion into their music, which would be taken to even greater heights in albums to come. Even simple tracks like "Lady" and "Just a Normal Day" blend in nicely with the album's warm personality and charmingly subtle mood. These original press kit photos and group biography was provided to record reviewers to promote the release of Supertramp's "Crisis? What Crisis?"' album in 1975. I was a record reviewer, interviewer and writer for music publications in Southern California and Florida. I've been the only owner of these press kit photos and bio since then. The 8 inch by 10 inch photos have been scanned low-res but the photos you will receive will be sharp and in excellent condition. Be sure to check out my other listings, many are rare.Ships USPS First Class Mail.
