    True story. Mid 80s. I'm playing bass in a bar band. Supertramp is in Cleveland for a concert. About midnight people start requesting Supertramp songs, which we don't do. I look over at the bar and see John Helliwell sitting at the bar. I say; hey, I think that guy knows some Supertramp. Ask him up on stage. Turns out the whole band was there. They all come up! Owner locks the doors. We're doing shots and hanging/jamming with the band. We're there till like 5AM. A memory I'll never forget. Thank you, Jamel for the reaction. Stay safe. Peace out.

    "I say, now watch what you say, or they'll be calling you a radical, a liberal, oh, fanatical, criminal.
    Oh won't you sign up your name? We'd like to feel you're acceptable, oh presentable, a vegetable."
    Some of my favourite lyrics in the history of pop and *still* IMO, as relevant today, as they were, when written.

    “Roger Hodson” and Micheal Jackson, both have one thing in common. They both uttered the word VEGETABLE in a song. Getty Lee (Rush), Jon Anderson (Yes) and Roger all have that very high talking voice that truly makes them unique. Breakfast in America album could be listened to front to back. Not a concept album necessarily but every track is just awesome. Good string of hits on this one!

I mainly like them because they showed black people liking music by white artists. I really thought of that as unifying, like military service without the danger. However, once yours came up, I said “I like this brother,” and your channel is the first and only of its type that I have subscribed to. You have a winsome spirit that really comes through.
