      Lad, you gotta understand that that was a time, an era. Probably impossible to relive it, or resurrect it. I saw them in 1979 on Breakfast in America tour . I was 27, & to be perfectly honest was kinda disappointed with the sound. Roger didn't seem in the good mood & it showed in his singing. But, after a while things began to pick up to a more charged level that left me leaving satisfied. Have you seen Roger solo-with band- live? I mean before covid? Vy good sound, & sense of Supertramp!

      When I was in my early 20s I saw them 5 times. I am 67 and still LOVE them so much. Truly a magical time to be alive in the late 1978-1980 era. I would go anywhere as well to see them again. Let's hope and dream someday..

    I do wonder how much nore commercially massive this wonderful band would have become if they had continued together. Such fantastic music produced over the years. I first saw them live in 1974 on the Crime of the Century tour and have been a fan ever since. I always loved John's stage presence, humour and quality musicianship. I once got a local radio show to play Hide in Your Shell on their 'rock show' evening programme in the 70's - I couldn't believe they would play such a 'not suitable for commercial radio' tune and I enjoyed every second of it as I still do today.

    @okguy1282 ปีที่แล้ว +6

    I love Supertramp with both Rick and Roger. Have all their albums up until Famous last Words. But Roger left. It happens. It was sad as a fan. Supertramp with both singers was....Supertramp. Roger and Rick had different views on music. Fair enough. But in some perfect way...they complimented each other. Roger's voice on Rick's songs and vice-versa was pure perfection. As a fan we will never know the emotions and reasons truly for the breakup. If by some slight chance they could perform again together it would be incredible. However, they are much older now....very difficult to do any show at their age. And poor Rick he has not been in great health of late. John Helliwell is a fun spirit. He was just fun to watch with his amazing Sax......and I think he truly loved both men. He looks real good here. Well....we shall see. But if not...we have the memories!! That part will never be taken away.

      @balazsernhaft8337 Well, it's ok that you like Rick and his songs. But it's not ok to blame somebody for something without knowing reasons and to ignore the fantastic success Roger's songs gave Supertramp. I know it's the time of devided society, of only black and white and hate between each other. BUT that is not a way of evolution and success but of failures and degeneration. Read Roger's lyrics and you can learn "a little bit". 😇 Merry Christmas 🎄

    and the influence of each aspect creates a uniquely brilliant,
    MUST BE God inspired sound.
    When it becomes clear to ALL OF US that God comes first,
    then petty things will be put aside.

    EASILY the greatest music of my life and I'm deeply grateful
    for their artistry, passion, discipline and excellence.

    and powerful music.

      Roger left the band in 1983. The band continued without him and after 10 years hiatus( 1987-97) they came back with the STNC which was a great album and success in Europe. So it was the return of the band , it is your problem that you misunterstood it .There was no any words about Hodgson's return so you should have checked it in advance if you are RH fan .

    I mean, both of them are so introverted and stubborn, they still need to be true to their word and probably too much thick, always standing firmly in their wee own backyard.
    It will never happen and, btw, as a Scot I'll tell ye: Dougie will never say 'aye', he's too angry at Rick and he's given up playing almost 30 years ago.

    As Roger Hodgson played base on their Indelibly Stamped album, Roger Hodgson is the one to rate how gifted Dougie Thompson was as a base player. Roger failed Supertramp fans on so many levels.

      @@bobdavis4848 So? How good was Dougie? Roger never took the trouble to offer up any praise. I know Rick was an anomaly. So, Bob S. had to be lights out as Rick set a high standard as a percussionist. Figure John Helliwell was a match for Roger or Rodger. What about Dougie? HELLO! (hello!).
      Seems to me Dougie put a lot of the thump into Supertramp. Or was that Roger H. directing him how to play the bass? I heard recently that Dougie's health is failing.

      @@WilliamJones-sf5pt So it’s nice for fans to know and use proper spellings of musicians. I’m not sure how much of what you wrote was rhetorical and how much you expected me to answer. Dougie was good enough to be part of albums we like. I don’t know how you can be so sure Roger never praised Dougie. It’s Roger, not Rodger. I hope all of them stay in good health.

      @@lehec I know. ABBA's reunion may not have been for full concerts or tours, but they have done more activity as a duo portion, trio or foursome in the last few years than Supertramp have in recent years, including limited public appearances. I was taking your comment literally. ABBA did not declare for certain that "Voyage" would be their final album forever, though of course many have suspected it.

      @@lehec Wikipedia can be entered in and edited by anyone without credentials. What I've seen of ABBA members talking about their future did not rule out more recordings. I'd suggest that Wikipedia entry should add "allegedly" before "final," and I don't know who with authority declared "Voyage" was their "final" album. While I quite enjoy all ABBA albums, I feel the same about their solo projects. I know about the very enthusiastic fans. But I'd rather the ABBA members leave ABBA to rest than if they feel forced to continue ABBA projects against their wishes.
