MicroMara Posted November 26, 2021 Share Posted November 26, 2021 In the Eye of the Storm is the first studio album by British pop/rock musician Roger Hodgson, who was a founding member of the British band Supertramp. The musical style found on In the Eye of the Storm is often referred to as progressive art pop, and is partly reminiscent of the Supertramp style of the 1970s. Keyboard sounds (especially in In Jeopardy and Give Me Love, Give Me Life) and staccato piano sounds repeatedly stand out as the main instruments, while other instruments, such as Supertramp's typical wind instruments (e.g. saxophone), fade into the background. The most famous songs of the album are Had a Dream (Sleeping with the Enemy) (with just under 8½ minutes the second longest song on the record), whose video, for example, was often shown by MTV, In Jeopardy, as well as the ballad Lovers in the Wind (with just over 4 minutes the shortest song) and the bombastic-symphonic Only Because of You (with just over 8½ minutes the longest work). 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This Seconds Out pressing is very good and Bill Bruford makes a great addition with contributions on percussion and drums Mike - Was the Genesis archive released on LP ? I have so many original LPs that I’m not sure if I need any more 🤪 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
