They're British! No... they're Scottish! No... they're American!

Supertramp is a band, who took their name from the movie, The Lady And The Tramp. The band formed in the early 1970's in an alley in England. Most people didn't realize they were British, thinking that they were an American band. What a bunch of fools. Any true expert of music would know that Grand Funk Railroad was an American band, not Supertramp. Some other idiots think Supertramp came from Scotland. But no, that's most likely Jethro Tull (and Ian Anderson) they're thinking of.

Yes, they're English, so if you said English, well you're bloody well right. But if you thought "Bloody Well Right" was a Wings song, get out of here before I pull out my hunting rifle. They've been English ever since they were born. Duh!

Band History

The band's history started in 1969 in an alleyway, it was one of the darkest alleyways in England. One of the darkest alleyways in England, not Scotland, and definitely not fucking America! It was rumored that the theme to Once Upon a Time in the West was playing in the background when they were making a dark, mucky transaction in the alleyway when the group started. This would make sense, since the movie's theme is paid tribute at the beginning of their 1974 album Crime of 1974 (The Non-Mining Disaster One). The original members were Rick Davies, Roger Daltrey-Hodgson, Richard "Dick" Palmer-Sucker and Keith "the Master" Baker (now known as Bob Whatshislastname?).

It's said by many that the band got its name Supertramp because they met in an alleyway and an alleyway is a pretty trampy place to meet someone. However, true experts say they got their name from Lady and the Tramp.

Discography

This is the studio discography of Supertramp. The album titles were always confusing. It was unsure what they were drinking at the time when they came up with these titles, since we all know the Scottish, or the English, or whatever the fuck they were have a propensity for drinking. Did they have Crazy Horse? Well, probably not Crazy Horse. Maybe they just drank way too much Sunny D and vodka, although that sounds unlikely. Tweet your opinions now.

Okay, the results are in. 43% say Glenn McKenna, 13% say other generic scotch; 4% say English beer; and 40% say whjhaanddsh. Okay, I haven't really heard of whjhaanddsh, could you please elaborate? I will read your definition after we list off their live albums.

• The 70-10 Bus Ride (40 Years in a Bus) (2010)

Ha ha yes, 40 years in a bus does sound pretty biblical, Mr. Magic. Ahem. Okay, the answers are in. According to reader responses, whjhaanddsh is an alcoholic beverage that's a mixture of gorilla scotch and fish juice. It is ingested every morning for strength in all of the world's remaining village. It can blended, shaken, but not stirred. It was invented by 1476 by Leif Erikson and Ruddy Bottom for the sole purpose of removing brain snakes.

Okay okay, this doesn't make any sense. Do I look like a fucking idiot? If you googled the word whjhaanddsh, the only page that would pop up is this one. Second, there is no such as fish juice, only jugo de pescado. I didn't even know where to start with the strength sentence. Opaque James Bond reference, always classy. Now, it was invented in 1476 by Leif Erikson, right the guy who discovered Greenland, and Ruddy Bottom. Ruddy Bottom, the drummer for Faith No More? Seriously, did you think those names would go uncaught? My mind is a steel earth. And what on God's green earth is a brain snake?
