Slow Motion is the eleventh album by the English rock band Supertramp, released in 2002 and their most recent studio album. In North America, it was only available via mail-order from the band's website, released on their own label.

Contents

The song "Goldrush" was actually written in the early 1970s under the first Supertramp line-up, and was used as the opening number in all their shows prior to Crime of the Century. The band had tried to record it on several previous occasions, but had never before been able to recreate it in the studio to their satisfaction.

Reception

Allmusic wrote that the songs and blending of styles are brilliant, but that what would otherwise have been an outstanding album was spoiled by shoddy production.
