Supertramp continues the 50th anniversary celebrations in their half-speed remaster reissue series with three titles: Even in the Quietest Moments…, Breakfast in America and …Famous Last Words…. And just like 2025’s first two releases in the series—Crime of the Century and Crisis? What Crisis?—all three albums have been remastered at half-speed by Miles Showell at Abbey Road Studios. The new projects all arrive on March 20, 2026, and are available to order in the U.S. here, in Canada here and in the U.K. here. [Crime of the Century and Crisis? What Crisis? are available there, too.]

Even in the Quietest Moments…, the band’s fifth album, was originally released in 1977. It was an immediate hit, peaking at #16 on Billboard, and the album’s opening track, “Give A Little Bit,” reached #15 on the Hot 100.

Their sixth album, Breakfast in America, is their biggest commercial success. Released in 1979, it has sold over 22 million worldwide, generated two billion global streams and spent 88 consecutive weeks on the Billboard 200. It spawned three hit singles – “The Logical Song,” “Goodbye Stranger,” and “Take The Long Way Home,” each of which broke into the top 15 of the Hot 100. The album’s title track also achieved international success, breaking into the U.K. top 10 and songs like “Oh Darling” have become beloved fan favorites. The album was 1979’s top-selling album in the U.S. and received many accolades, including two Grammy Awards and an Ivor Novello Award (for “The Logical Song”).
