Roger has been recognized as one of the most gifted composers, songwriters, and lyricist of our times.

Roger brings his songs to life when he is alone and is a complete writer and composer to include not only the lyrics but also the complete arrangement of the song. Roger was also very instrumental in the creative process of producing all of his solo albums including the Supertramp albums he was involved in. From conceiving the journey of the album as a whole to choosing the songs and their order, to fine tuning the sound on each track, Roger spent weeks and months in the studio bringing each album to its highest form. At one point Roger even moved a travel trailer into the studio parking lot during the recording of the Breakfast in America album so that he could spend up to 20 hours each day in the studio.

"My wife and I saw your fabulous music performance with full orchestra last evening. One of the greatest music events ever for both of us. The depth and sophistication of your music truly came through.Your music is having an impact on younger generations also. At home, when a Supertramp song comes on random play in the kitchen, my 11 year old son (a pianist) will say "Is that Supertramp?" Then I will hear him humming one of the countermelodies intertwined into your works. Thank you from all of us."
"Roger's voice is "gold" and unchanged from his Supertramp days. His band was incredible and the sound the best I have ever heard in a live show. There was "a lot of love" in the room and so well deserved."
