    Músico da melhor qualidade, ser humano fantástico. Aliás ele e o Roger eram a alma da banda únicos com bom humor e de sorriso no rosto dando ao público um tom de humanidade na secura do restante. Além de talentos natos e insubstituíveis, claro.

      You should really stop spamming your crap on here. I don't even know why you are so against him. He never claimed to be the main driving force behind the band, but neither Roger nor Rick would have claimed that John was "a non entity". If you like Roger as much as you say, you should probably realize that he would say John Helliwell, Dougie Thomson, and Bob Siebenberg were all very important. Helliwell's sax solos are iconic, as was his stage presence. If you don't feel that way, then I'm not sure you actually like Supertramp. I can't imagine The Logical Song with it. Thomson's fretless bass work is fantastic - songs like Even in the Quietest Moments or School or Give a Little Bit have amazing bass lines that any actual Supertramp fan should be well aware of. And I can't say enough good things about Siebenberg's drumming. Same with your ridiculous opinions about Ringo. I'll take the opinions of these guys: ua-cam.com/video/wJTjjAXDZSY/v-deo.html Over yours about drumming any day.

      Spell out what facts? How many Beatles hits did Ringo Star write? How many songs did John Entwistle write for The Who? Please don't embarrass yourself further with your lack of knowledge. Every member of a band contributes to the sound that identifies that band. One thing that everyone knows when they hear Supertramp is that sax. Roger Hodgson was a great singer songwriter but Supertramp also had Rick Davies providing that counterbalance. So now who the idiot?

    • @mikecaldwell8417
      @mikecaldwell8417 6 років тому

      Highlighted reply Glencairn 04, listen you moron, Ringo Starr is a joke. I am a drummer and no accomplished drummer thinks Ringo Starr was a critical part of the beatles. He could be replaced with any competent drummer. It takes a real idiot to think every member of a band is important to the success of that band. Well you ignorant fool, tell that to Roger Hodgson, Roger Waters, Glenn Frey and the countless other great artists who resented being in a band where they contribute the most to the music creation but have to give credit to lesser members. And that is exactly what this loser saxophone player is. He is a nobody who contributed nothing to Super Tramps major hit song which made them famous. This loser was so pathetic I saw him playing the fucking tambourine in videos because he had nothing to give to the music other than play the instrument any idiot can play. I bet you are a master at the tambourine yourself

    • @mikecaldwell8417
      @mikecaldwell8417 6 років тому

      mgpixlab, I think you are a dumb as a door knob. As a drummer, I know playing drums is relatively easy. Any high school drummer could play a lot of what these so called "great" drummer play without any drum lessons Now because you are a complete imbecile I will explain something about song writing to you. It takes a creative and talented mind to come up with the melody, chords, lyrics, and structure of a good song. That requires a ton of more talent then it does to play a f#cking simple drum pattern. Hell, most songwriters use a drum machine when they are writing the songs by themselves because it is easy to add the drumming. I think you obviously never wrote a decent song in your pathetic life. Now I wonder if Super Tramp fans had the choice of going to see Roger Hodgson play his contributions to SuperTramp or go to see Helliwell go and play his contributions to SuperTramp which one would most fans want to see? I am sure it is pretty clear who the winner would be.

    The real McCcoy 1- If you want to listen to some Supertramp songs as The Logical Song, Dreamer, Breakfast in America, you should go to Roger Hodgson world tour. He is the composer/writer of those songs as well as cofounder of the band. He left the band in 1983, but he didn’t leave his songs or fans.

    2- If you want to listen to Rick Davies songs, then you go to the Supertramp tour. Unfortunately they may play Roger’s songs, which is a shame and a disaster. They are flat and gray. (I had this frustrating experience in 1988).

  • @ferlvs
    @ferlvs 14 років тому

    3 - The Supertramp songs that were composed by Roger Hodgson performed by their author (Roger Hodgson) on the other hand, are magical, unique! (I had the grace of experiencing that 3 times). Why is that so? Because Roger Hodgson cannot be replaced. It’s not a matter of high-pitched voice, it’s a matter of Roger’s soul, which cannot be replaced - Roger’s soul is what makes all the difference. Best regards, Fernanda

      @@cemegonuts Agree 100%. Hodgson's solo career was a flop & now he basically rehashes his Supertramp songs over & over for a flock of fawning disciples (that's how it feels at least). Davies & his Supertramp never really worked out either. They brought out the very best in each other when it came to making music. I love all of the albums they made together (even Famous Last Words although it falls short of the others). Crime Of The Century is just out of this world!
