Mit 20 Millionen verkauften Exemplaren ist "Breakfast in America" das erfolgreichste Album von Supertramp und sogar eines der meistverkauften Alben überhaupt. Damit gelingt Supertramp 1979 der große Durchbruch in den USA. Mit Erscheinen dieses Podcasts sind seit der Veröffentlichung von "Breakfast in America" bereits 45 Jahre vergangen. "Breakfast in America" ist ein zeitloser Meilenstein des progressiven Pop mit Songs, die auch heute noch relevant sind. Das sind neben dem Titelsong auch "The Logical Song", "Goodbye Stranger" und "Take The Long Way Home". Die Gründung der Band Supertramp Supertramp haben sich 1969 gegründet. Rick Davies spielt bereits im Alter von 12 Jahren Schlagzeug und steigt dann zum Keyboarder auf. Bei einem Gig in München lernt er den holländischen Millionär Stanley August, genannt Sam, kennen. Dieser ermutigt ihn dazu eine eigene Band zu gründen. Über eine Annonce im "Melody Maker", einer großen britischen Musikzeitschrift, die bis ins Jahr 2000 wöchentlich erschienen ist, sucht er geeignete Musiker. Daraufhin meldet sich Roger Hodgson bei ihm und die beiden gründen die Band "Daddy". Ihr allererster Auftritt findet im damaligen Münchner Szene-Lokal "PN hit-house" auf der Leopoldstraße statt. Unter der Woche spielten doch meist Cover-Bands, während am Wochenende die Bands aus Großbritannien auftraten. In München entscheiden sie sich für einen neuen Bandnamen: aus Daddy wird Supertramp. Von "Supertramp" bis hin zu "Breakfast in America" Die ersten Alben "Supertramp" und "Indelibly Stamped" sind wenig erfolgreich, weshalb das Kapitel Supertramp bereits 1971 zunächst als beendet erscheint. Die Band besteht zu diesem Zeitpunkt aus Rick Davies, Rodger Hodgson, Kevin Currie, Frank Farrell und Dave Winthrop. Ihr Finanzier Sam zieht sich aus dem Musikgeschäft zurück, 1973 stehen Supertramp vor der Auflösung. Ein Jahr später — in neuer Formation — veröffentlichen sie "Crime of the Century". Zu Davies und Hodgson gesellen sich nun John Helliwell, Bob Siebenberg und Dougie Thomson dazu. Erstmals in der Bandgeschichte agieren auch Gastmusiker bei den Aufnahmen. Mit ihrem fünften Album 1977 "Even in the Quietest Moments" und der daraus veröffentlichten Single "Give a Little Bit" folgt dann endlich auch der Durchbruch in den USA und Supertramp zieht es nach Los Angeles. Dort entsteht ihr sechstes Studioalbum "Breakfast in America" und eröffnet, passend zum Albumtitel, mit "Gone Hollywood". Insgesamt gibt es für Davies und Hodgson drei Phasen von Songwriting während der Produktion des Albums. Sie schreiben ihre Songs zuhause und nehmen sie auch dort zunächst als Demo auf, eine weitere Demo wird im Studio aufgenommen, bis sie im dritten Schritt das Arrangement festlegen und die Songs tatsächlich einspielen. Opener "Gone Hollywood" und Closer "Child of Vision" Für unsere SWR1 Musikredakion sind beides epische Stücke. Mit gut 7,5 Minuten behalten Supertramp ihre Tradition bei, den Closer ziemlich episch zu gestalten. "Child of Vision" thematisiert angeblich das Verhältnis zwischen den beiden äußerst unterschiedlichen Songwriter-Persönlichkeiten: Rick Davies und Roger Hudgson. Hodgson hat den Song geschrieben und dabei möglicherweise an Davies gedacht. Die beiden haben gänzlich unterschiedliche Vorstellungen vom Leben, nicht nur auf musikalischer Ebene und eben diese Widersprüche werden in "Child of Vision" thematisiert. Davies kommt aus dem Jazz, dem Rhythm and Blues und hat dementsprechend andere musikalische oder auch thematisch viel tiefere, destruktivere Ansätze an Texten, während Roger Hodgson vom Pop geprägt ist und eine Falsettstimme mitbringt. "The Logical Song" Die Welt der erwachsenen Erziehungsschule aus Sicht eines Teenagers. "The Logical Song" handelt davon, dass Schülerinnen und Schülern gelehrt wird nach Außen zu funktionieren, aber nicht, wer man innerlich wirklich ist und was den wahren Sinn des Lebens ausmacht. Die Nummer war die Lead-Single von "Breakfast in America" und ist bis heute ein absoluter Rock-Klassiker und für SWR1 Musikredakteur Frank König ein wahres Meisterwerk. Der Song ist in drei Teile gegliedert: beginnend in der Kindheit, über die Schulzeit im Internat bis hin zum Erwachsenendasein. Rodgson beschreibt die magische Schönheit der Kinderwelt und stellt sie der widersprüchlichen und überfordernden Erwachsenenwelt gegenüber und stellt sich die Frage: Wer bin ich eigentlich? Ein Meilenstein der Musikgeschichte Warum der Ursprungstitel des Albums eigentlich "Hello Stranger" sein sollte, von welchen Songs der Beatles sich Supertramp in "Breakfast in America" inspirieren lassen haben, welche ungewöhnlichen Instrumente bei der Produktion zum Einsatz kamen und ob Johnny Hallywell sein stilbringendes Saxophon tatsächlich auf der Studio-Toilette aufgenommen hat, das und mehr gibt es im Meilenstein zu "Breakfast in America" von Supertramp. __________ Über diese Songs vom Album "Breakfast in America" wird im Podcast gesprochen (04:49) – "The Logical Song"(14:18) – "Gone Hollywood"(21:40) – "Gone Hollywood"(22:24) – "Child of Vision"(29:24) – "The Logical Song"(48:12) – "Goodbye Stranger"(56:03) – "Breakfast in America"(01:03:54) – "Take the Long Way Home"__________ Über diese Songs wird außerdem im Podcast gesprochen (26:34) – "Here Comes the Sun" von The Beatles(01:40:12) – "Hyper Hyper" von Scooter(01:10:43) – "When We Were Young" von David Guetta und Kim Petras(01:11:07) – "Cry Cry Cry" von Coldplay(01:11:41) – "It Might Be Time" von Tame Impala (Prod.

Adventures of Frank Farrell 41-03-22 Frank, Jim, Helen & Spud arrested for bank robbery & car theft while on way to Syracuse

Nach zwei gefloppten Alben, konnte Supertramp nur mit finanzieller Hilfe noch ein weiteres Album aufnehmen. Und das brachte dann endlich die Wende für Supertramp. Die ersten beiden Alben, die Supertramp veröffentlicht haben, waren wenig erfolgreich. Kam "Supertramp" immerhin noch auf Platz 158 in den Billboard 200 (USA), hat sich der Nachfolger "Indelibly Stamped" in keiner Hitparade blicken lassen. Die Karriere von Supertramp stand daher schon am Anfang vor dem Ende. Aber Roger Hodgson, Rick Davis und nicht zuletzt auch ihr Financier, der niederländische Industrielle Stanley August Miesegaes, glaubten weiter an eine Zukunft der Band. Kevin Currie, Frank Farrell und Dave Winthrop wurden ausgetauscht. Für sie kamen John Helliwell, der vor seiner Zeit als Rockstar als Saxophonist in Stripclubs musiziert hatte, Bob Siebenberg (auch bekannt als Bob C. Benberg), der in einer „Pub-Rock“-Band getrommelt hat und Dougie Thomson. Er hatte vorher schon ein paar Mal Bass bei Supertramp gespielt und wurde nun zum festen Mitglied.  Die erste Single in dieser Besetzung war "Land Ho". Der Song wurde zwar auch kein Hit, aber der neue Klang war nicht zu überhören. Während der ersten Schaffensphase haben die beiden Band-Chefs Rick Davis und Roger Hodgson noch gemeinsam Lieder geschrieben. Das änderten sie bei der Arbeit an "Crime Of The Century". Jeder schrieb und arbeitete für sich alleine an den Stücken, erst im Studio wurden die Kompositionen dann mit der Band "erarbeitet". Das führte dazu, dass beide ihre großen Stärken ausspielen konnten. Roger Hodgson, ein Meister der hitverdächtigen Melodien, immer irgendwie melancholisch, aber immer auf den Punkt. Rick Davis‘ Lieder hatten dagegen immer eine leise Ironie und etwas mehr "Rockfeeling". Mit dieser Mischung wurden Supertramp zu einer der erfolgreichsten Bands der Siebziger Jahre und nicht ganz zu Unrecht werden sie in ihrer Gegensätzlichkeit auch mit einem anderen Songschreiber-Duo verglichen: John Lennon und Paul McCartney.  „Crime Of The Century“ wird musikalisch und kommerziell der Durchbruch für Supertramp. Platz 4 in Großbritannien, in Deutschland Platz 5 und in den USA immerhin auch Top 40. Die erste ausgekoppelte Single, "Dreamer" kommt sogar in Neuseeland in die Charts und der Titel entwickelt sich zu einem der Supertramp-Klassiker. Diesen Titel hatte Roger Hodgson schon im Alter von 19 Jahren geschrieben und ihn für dieses Album aus dem Archiv geholt. Nur die Fans in den USA spielten nicht ganz mit, ihnen gefiel die B-Seite besser, das von Rick Davies geschriebene "Bloody Well Right".  Seit erscheinen des Albums sind Supertramp Superstars. Sie werden daran gemessen. Diesem Druck halten sie, zumindest in den folgenden acht Jahren, Stand. Kaum ein Album ohne Hitsingle und auf ihren Tourneen werden Supertramp gefeiert.   Auch die Produktion und der Klang des Albums setzen Maßstäbe. "Crime Of The Century" kann auch im Alter noch ohne Weiteres mit modernen Alben mithalten.   __________ Über diese Songs vom Album "Crime Of The Century" wird im Podcast gesprochen: 03:57 Mins – “School” 10:39 Mins – “Bloody Well Right” 15:28 Mins – “Dreamer” 17:58 Mins – “Rudy” 23:45 Mins – “Crime Of The Century” __________ Über diese Songs wird außerdem im Podcast gesprochen: 03:16 Mins – “Land Ho” von Supertramp 10:48 Mins – “Locomotive Breath” von Jethro Tull __________ Links zum Podcast: Album Review auf Allmusic.com https://www.allmusic.com/album/crime-of-the-century-mw0000192066 Supertramp Bio im Rolling Stone https://web.archive.org/web/20110116004446/http://www.rollingstone.com/music/artist s/supertramp/biography Interview mit Drummer Bob Siebenberg zu Crime Of The Century https://www.moderndrummer.com/2014/12/supertramps-bob-siebenberg-intervew/ __________ Ihr wollt mehr Podcasts wie diesen?

Garrett and Dan are joined by Frank Farrell to discuss one of their favorite modern horror movies, Neil Marshall's THE DESCENT. The boys chat about how effective the first hour is as a horror movie, and why it helps the finale that it's so grounded for so long.

First printed in Ted Saucier's Bottoms Up cocktail guide, this drink is not well represented and probably not well liked but nevertheless we did our 82nd episode on it. It first appears nearly simultaneously with the introduction of blue curacao on the market, it's recipe in Saucier's book, and a Bols ad for blue curacao roughly around 1951. It seems to have been given a spotlight for a short time by Bols and a couple of wheeling-dealing PR agents, Ted Saucier and Frank Farrell, who both did a stint in the Marines. It's an interesting little tale of cocktail invention in the Mad Men era. But we didn't leave it at that. We did a full assessment of understanding the origin of the word leatherneck and how it came to be applied to the personnel of the U.S. Marine Corps and then we told the stories of how the U.S. Marine Corps came to be and some of the amazing adventures they had in their early years. Truly cinematic stuff. The drink is: 2 oz blended whiskey 0.75 oz blue curacao 0.5 oz lime juice First off, the drink is frightening in aspect. We kept referring to it as green alien blood. The taste was pretty horrid as well. We sat in the bar trying to figure out why anyone would make this drink if it wasn't a prank...and then it hit us. The Leatherneck Cocktail tastes like salty leather. So nobody would ask to drink a cocktail that tastes like a sweaty leather collar, but if someone proposed that they could make a drink that tastes like briny hide people would still be impressed that that could be delivered. Granted its a parlor trick that works once and then it's retired...however, once we understood what the cocktail was all about, some members of the tasting team started to appreciate its complexity. Going into production of this episode I didn't think there was going to be much to discuss. This one ended up like a hidden gem...probably emerald...or maybe more sapphire.

Amanda Sitko (Brockmire, UCB) joins the MEAT boys along with Philly natives Frank Farrell (The Prince & PHIT) & Annie Paradis (The Slam, Good Good Comedy).

Chill out with a mid-summer edition of Booth One! Gary's good friend and storyteller extraordinaire Julia Maish joins us in the Booth this week. Julia is Manager of Media Relations for WTTW and WFMT and has worked as an actress and jazz singer in Chicago. We ask Julia about her early days working with The Second City. She was the sole administrative employee when she was there and tells an hilarious story about how on her last day, her boss swept all the cash from the safe into a paper bag to compensate her for the many vacation days she never took. A dramatic and thoughtful gesture. Though she never had the desire to jump into the improvisation scene, Julia made a fine career out of doing scripted theater with the likes of Frank Farrell and Paul Sills. She relates her experiences with site-specific Shakespeare and the physical demands and dangers of acting. Also the 24-hour Shakespeare Marathon, the first of its kind in Chicago. Julia talks about her meeting President Barack Obama on several occasions, including during his run for Senate. At a debate organized by Julia, Obama arrives late and is ascended upon by a gaggle of press. There is apparently a photo of Julia and the aspiring senator out there somewhere, but alas, a lengthy search proved fruitless. Listeners, please forward to us if you should come across it. For many years, Julia was part of a vocal jazz trio know as Three A.M., and later changed to Moonglow. Her suggestion to the group that they change their name again to Cakes Men Like (from a cookbook title that was given to her by a friend) was met with little enthusiasm. Gary praises a marvelous new play called At The Table, produced by Broken Nose Theatre Company at the Den Theatre. It's one of the finest examples of ensemble acting we've seen in a long while, and though the extended production is sold out through its current run, this fine piece is sure to find a long life in regional theaters across the country. Broken Nose is a "pay-what-you-can" company, where you set your own ticket price, which makes seeing this great work affordable for many more people. You can read the rave reviews of the play here. After falling for his voice on American Idol, Julia spent many years as a Clay Aiken fan, traveling the country to see him in concert with a group of like-minded Aiken-ites. She fell into this group almost by accident, but after seeing nearly 40 concerts, and ten performances of Spamalot when Aiken was in the Broadway cast, she grew to appreciate his talent, showmanship and wit. Julia was selected to read one of her stories on stage several times during various Aiken performances, and by all accounts stopped the show with her rendition of the time her dress caught on fire while performing with Moonglow. Gary recalls seeing Julia do her story at the historic Genesee Theatre when he booked Clay some years ago. It was a memorable performance. Watch for Clay in the next Sharknado movie on the Syfy Channel. On a related note - you can now see the 1975 Spielberg thriller Jaws on the big screen - while sitting in a shark-logo inner tube at night on an inky-black lake in Texas! It's the ultimate test of nerves and shark-phobia, fulled by food and liquid refreshment, including local beers. Probably not something that Gary is willing to do anytime soon. Jaws on the Water is presented by the Alamo Drafthouse at Volente Beach Water Park outside of Austin. Tickets are $55. Speaking of stories, Gary asks Julia to read one of her other stories on the air - a piece called Kissing Frogs and Other Amphibians. It's a recollection of Julia's varied dating history, particularly of the blind type. Funny and touching, it's a good example of Julia's insight and attention to detail that make her storytelling so compelling. Don't miss this season's Grant Park Music Festival Broadway event, A Broadway Romance, July 21 & 22. Gary will be doing the pre-concert presentation before each performance of thi...
