Crisis? What Crisis? Is no doubt, Supertramp's most under-rated release. And their most artistic as well, in my opinion. The remaster sadly missed the mark, unfortunately. The underlying gently laid out nuances were digitally washed out. Especially noted, would be the closing track: Two Of Us. The most lovely ballad on the entire CD, and all too short as well, is lacking the beauty of the echo on the vocals and the lush sound of Roger Hodgson's 12 string guitar. This is the bridge of this wonderful song. The remaster almost completely obliterated it. How tragic. The same could be said of: A Soap Box Opera. All the levels were brought forward, where I doubt it was wanted. Comparative to my vinyl copy in every detail, This is the ultimate of how the CD should have remained. The remaster is a crisis of disappointment to say the very least. The edgy tracks such as: Another Man's Woman, and The Meaning, are alright in and of itself. The digital transfer was pretty much the same. Still they lack that analog touch. What a find to have managed a treasure such as this version, of my favorite from this tremendous group. From the opening track: Easy Does It, to the end, Crisis? What Crisis? is truly a masterpiece. Search for much of this release on YouTube, and you'll come up a bit empty. Also very sad. Hodgson has a choke hold on the copyrights perhaps, and I tip my hat to his brilliance. Thanks for the South American source, in which I got a pristine used copy of this version in my collection. And worth every bit I paid to obtain it. ~ sun-king4Read full review
