FROM THE OFFICE OF THE SENESCHAL

52PD3: Websites Day III - Supertramp Appreciation Day

WHEREAS I recently challenged the citizens of Talossa to update TalossaWiki and port the last remaining content on kingdomoftalossa.net to TalossaWiki, and

WHEREAS I offered anyone who made 20 such updates or ports the chance to have me issue a Prime Dictate declaring a Day of Observance commemorating a topic of their choice, and

WHEREAS Eðo Grischun has made 20 updates


THEREFORE August 28th, 2018 shall be Supertramp Appreciation Day

Done under my hand, as from Kenwood House, this 27th day of August in the Year of Our Lord 2018, of the independence of Talossa the thirty-ninth, and the twelfth in the reign of our gracious Sovereign John.

I can't really post a picture for this one, since all it would be is a picture of my Spotify window, but I will be listening to Supertramp songs today and tomorrow, and I encourage Talossan citizens to post them to all of Talossa's various musical outlets.

Sadly, it's kind of hard to appreciate the original supertramp recordings using youtube links (copyright and such). Spotify has most of it though.



I bought the Very Best of Supertramp CD on the fleamarket earlier this year. Only the title is misleading because it doesn't contain this one, Fools Overture or A Soapbox Opera.

Of course appreciating Supertramp means appreciating Rick Davies as well.

Their catalogue of excellent songs is too immense to fit within a conventional greatest hits package.

The plus side, of course, is that the albums are well worth purchasing individually and listening to entirely. 

Breakfast In America is nearly perfect, start to finish. I've listened to "Oh Darling" on repeat more times than I want to admit... which was harder when it was vinyl and I had to keep picking up the needle.

And here you go...

The Paris concert IN FULL - Voila

You might need to "rewind" it to the beginning, not sure if I linked it right

Already mentioned this one, but wanted to post it anyway, also because it wasn't included in the Paris concert recording.
