    They’re one of those bands where I love the few songs I’ve heard, but have never gone out of my way to check out their catalogue. What album should I listen to?

      Breakfast in America is a must listen, and I really love Crime of the Century as well, especially Dreamer.

      Also highly recommend Paris, 1980 live album that covers a lot of ground and they sound great.

      To be honest their 2007 Retrospectacle “Greatest Hits” collection is a really nice entrypoint. They are a band who were around for a little while and their sound changed. The first disk is their older stuff which has a softer jazzier balladic feel and the 2nd disk is more pop-rock/yacht-rock and is where you’ll find The Logical Song and some other classics like Breakfast in America, Long Way Home and Goodbye Stranger.
