Speaking of infectious riffs, I submit for your consideration: Crackin' Up.

There's something about "Cracking Up"'s production that is literally disorienting to my ears.  Maybe it's those sustained bass notes.

You know I love my Supertramp, but this to me is exactly where they went wrong.  WOS...why are they trying to sound like Toto?
