Not a patch on the previous 3 for my money, especially crime of the century.
 
I have the Very Best Of Supertramp album which, as you’d expect, is a collection of the best songs all together.
 
Bought Crime of the century the morning after seeing them at Swansea University in 1974. Incredibly, they played the coffee bar because they weren't big enough for a larger room.
I have a soft spot for crisis, what crisis even though many don't rate it much.

Not sure that list is 100% accurate, some of those songs are 80’s hits.
 
I was about to jump on saying that two tribes was 84, remember trying to pull a girl in Plymouth when this was playing in the pub
