Supertramp - Even In The Quietest Moments (1977) [Art Pop / Rock]
I have a love-hate relationship with Supertramp. Crime Of The Century and Breakfast In America leave me cold, but for some reason Even In The Quietest Moments... comes across as extremely well constructed as far as album experiences go...maybe the one time where they really "clicked" for an entire record. There's melodic depth here (see title track above) that gives these cuts a certain timeless sheen that makes one think of Brian Wilson gone Elton John but without the things that annoy me about the latter.
Basically, if your in the mood for some theatricality with some meat to it, this will do it and then some.
