Biografia - Roger Hodgson

Roger hodgson fan-report: valutazioni e recensioni, 1 recensioni (ø 5,0), grande classe di un compositore di primordine.

Si certo, il Teatro Smeraldo era tuttaltro che pieno, in Italia il solo nome ROGER HODGSON dice poco o nulla, ma i presenti hanno trascorso 2 ore di grande musica. Hodgson è compositore, chitarrista, tastierista nonchè ottimo pianista... I veri fans del mondo Supertramp sanno che era lui, senza nulla togliere ai bravissimi ex soci, la mente e lanima del gruppo. Da quando nel lontano 1983 lui se ne andò il gruppo ha continuato a comporre buona musica, ma senza la forza emotiva che solo Roger era in grado di mettere, con il cuore!!!!!!! Consiglio vivamente lappuntamento a Lucca; sono soldi ben spesi!!!

Supertramp (formed in 1969) is an English progressive rock and pop band, founded by Rick Davies, hailing from London, England.

From the ashes of Rick Davies’ previous group The Joint, which had been funded by Dutch millionaire Stanley August Miesegaes, Davies, with the backing of Miesegaes, formed Supertramp. Alongside bassist and vocalist Roger Hodgson, guitarist Richard Palmer, and percussionist Keith Baker, who was soon replaced by Robert Millar, the group made their debut at the P. N. Club in Munich, Germany. With a repertoire of only four songs, including two covers, the band, previously dubbed Daddy, changed their name to Supertramp – inspired by William Henry Davies’ “The Autobiography of a Super-Tramp”.

The band’s eponymously-titled debut album was released in 1970 after being one of the first bands to sign with A&M Records. With a sound reminiscent of British progressive rock band Cressida, the album earned positive reviews from critics however lacked a large audience. After the release both Palmer and Millar left the group due to conflicts and were replaced by Frank Farrell and Kevin Currie respectively. Supertramp’s sophomore album “Indelibly Stamped” was released in 1971 with songwriting responsibilities falling to Hodgson and Davies. The album proved even less popular than its predecessor and resulted in all members except Hodgson and Davies departing the group.

By this point Miesegaes had stopped funding the band and Supertramp were in the market for new musicians to join its ranks. The new line-up, as of 1973, included Bob Siebenberg on drums, John Helliwell on saxophone, Douggie Thompson on bass, alongside Davies and Hodgson. In 1974 Supertramp released their third studio album “Crime of the Century” which marked the band’s breakthrough into the mainstream. Spawning the singles “Dreamer” and “Bloody Well Right” the album charted at No. Four in the UK, No. 38 in the U.S., and No. One in Canada.

Feeling the pressure of their breakthrough album and rushed to complete its successor, Supertramp released “Crisis? What Crisis?” in November 1975. Featuring leftover songs from “Crime of the Century” the band regard the album as one of their worst despite its popular reviews from critics. Supertramp’s follow-up album “Even in the Quietest Moments…” released in 1977, aided by the single “Give a Little Bit”, was another popular gestalt album reaching No. 12 in the UK.

Following the album Supertramp relocated to California, U.S., and released their highest charting album to date “Breakfast in America”. Released in March 1979, the album reached No. Three in the UK, and No. One in the U.S and Canada. Aided by the popular singles “The Logical Song”, “Goodbye Stranger”, “Take the Long Way Home”, and “Breakfast in America”, the album was supported by a record breaking 120-date world tour. After “Breakfast in America” the band took a break from touring and recording, later releasing the two disc live LP “Paris” in 1980.

During the hiatus Hodgson moved to Northern California with his family to build a studio and focus on his spirituality. Around this time Hodgson and Davies found it harder to share a mutual musical middle ground and seemed to grow further apart with the geographical distance. Supertramp’s seventh studio album “Famous Last Words” was released in 1982 and spawned the singles “It’s Raining Again” and “My Kind of Lady”. Following the release Hodgson, the band’s lead vocalist, left the group to focus on solo material and his family. With Davies at the fore, Supertramp’s follow-up album “Brother Where You Bound” was issued in 1985 featuring guitar solos from Pink Floyd’s David Gilmore.

In a move towards the electronically-induced synthetic sounds, the band’s 1987 album “Free as a Bird” was dismissed by fans and critics alike, however the single “I’m Beggin’ You” reached No. One on the US dance chart. Following a supporting tour, where Hodgson-penned songs were played to a minimum, the band decided to take a break which would last until 1996. The reunion resulted in the studio album “Some Things Never Change” in 1997, and the live album “It Was the Best of Times” in 1999, followed by “Slow Motion” in April 2002.

Live-Bewertungen

As much as documentaries and books would like to make you think differently, practically no-one in the seventies listened to any of the cool music that came out in the seventies. The Ramones? Kraftwerk? Joy Division? They were nobodies, obscurities that most people wrote off as hipster nonsense, if they were aware of them at all. After writing those classic artists off, the ones with taste would go back to listening to Supertramp. Sometimes quality does lead to popularity and their brand of prog infused soft rock may have made them one of the most popular bands in the world at the time, but when they were that good, both live and on record, they deserved it as much as anyone else did. What’s apparent today is that while founding member and main songwriter Roger Hodgson is no longer in the foil the rest of the band gel better than ever. Needless to say the instrumental chops are impeccable, which would come from nearly half a century of experience but it is inspiring to watch. Rick Davies more than makes up for Hodgson’s absence by providing lead vocals for the band and saxophonist John Helliwell is our host for the night, introducing the songs and interacting with the crowd with an easy charm. Supertramp then, at this point there’s never going to be any surprises, but when a band has hits like Breakfast in America, Bloody Well Right, The Logical Song and Goodbye Stranger, and can still put on a show that’s fun of the highest order, who needs surprises?

The current lineup of Supertramp is just not the same without Roger Hodgson. Roger's voice is very distinct and the songs he wrote are the signature sound of Supertramp (The Logical Song, Dreamer, Take the Long Way Home, Breakfast in America, Give a Little Bit, School , Fool's Overture, It's Raining Again to name just a few). I saw the most recent lineup of Supertramp for their 2011 tour, and was disappointed into thinking Roger would be performing with them especially because of all the promotions going around using Roger's voice, but when I got to the venue it was Mark Hart singing Roger's songs at which point I had left the venue, went right home and read more about Roger (thankfully discovered he is still actively touring) and that I still had the opportunity to experience the songs in concert from the original songwriter with the genuine "Supertramp sound".

Roger co-founded Supertramp in 1969 and though many of his songs are recognized as Supertramp songs, they were solely composed by Roger. I've left all thoughts about seeing this version of Supertramp behind, and am glad to have discovered Roger Hodgson and his more personal, connected concert experience, thankfully with many shows to look forward to this year.

Supertramp, the iconic London rock group who achieved great success in the 70's and 80's are still touring to their legions of devoted fans globally. Packed into the spanning O2 Arena, the audience is a combination of those original fans who are well into their 70s along with those who simply enjoy the band's legacy and style.

As the bombastic guitar riffs begin and the flared lighting illuminates the entire arena the crowd roar in excitement. The veteran rockers launch themselves onto the stage like a band half their age, the singalongs to 'Breakfast in America' and 'Gone Hollywood' are deafening as Roger Hodgson evokes even louder cheers from the baying crowds.

The band were such an important influence on progressive rock and so many of their albums have affected modern music. Therefore the choice in setlist is questionable, yet all the hits are there and the audience cheer for 'Goodbye Stranger' and 'It's Raining Again'. The band leaves their fans with sore throats, tired legs and happy hearts.

I've known and followed Supertramp from the first album, clearly everything changed after songwriter Roger Hodgson left the band in 1983. The dynamics of the band completely changed; Supertramp in their prime had 5 members... now 10 members this year. Not the Supertramp I saw in the 70s, there just isn't the same chemistry and it is difficult and uncomfortable sitting through other musicians performing Roger's songs just to hear a handful of Rick's songs. Then seeing Roger at the Royal Albert Hall in 2013 re-ignited the feelings and immersive aural experience I once had seeing Tramp in '75 & '79. Roger was a tour de force, nailed the harmonies and a set filled with both classic faves and deep track highlights, it had more depth and authenticity of the Supertramp I once knew. Didn't hesitate to book when I discovered Roger's returning to Albert Hall, I know from the start it will be a more fulfilling show and wouldn't chance another disappointment seeing "Supertramp".

I saw both Supertramp and the band's co-founder, Roger Hodgson, on their respective tours in 2010. I can honestly say there is no comparison and I have made it a point to see Roger live several times since. While Rick has some great songs of his own, there is nothing better than seeing Roger singing the songs he wrote - Give a Little Bit, Breakfast in America, The Logical Song, Take the Long Way Home, Dreamer, Fool's Overture, It's Raining Again, School, and so many more. His voice is so unique that absolutely no one else can do his songs justice. It is Roger Hodgson who truly gives me the essence and spirit of Supertramp. I can't wait to see him again this year on his Breakfast in America World Tour.

Supertramp’s Roger Hodgson tours to mark 40 years of Breakfast in America

“What a city,” Supertramp co-founder Roger Hodgson says, fondly recalling his visit to Perth six years ago on a solo tour.

“I’ve been there once but, blimey, it was such a unique place. I really wanted to stay and peek underneath the surface. It was great.”

Supertramp’s only tour of Australia in 1976 skipped WA, not that it would have mattered for Hodgson, who remembers virtually nothing of that visit.

“I’ve got to be honest,” the 68-year-old Brit says from his adopted home in northern California. “Very little.”

Journalism for the curious Australian across politics, business, culture and opinion.

While Hodgson left the English progressive rock giants in 1983 and moved his young family away from the Los Angeles music scene, he has spent the past two decades playing Supertramp hits under his own name.

The father-of-two returns to Australia in February on a tour that will coincide with the 40th anniversary of his band’s sixth and biggest selling album, Breakfast in America.

Hodgson wrote five songs, including The Logical Song, Take the Long Way Home and the title track, on the 1979 classic, which remains the perfect postcard of Supertramp’s love of symphonic Beatles-inspired pop with lashings of Wurlitzer electric piano, clavinets, clarinets and other instruments rarely found in the rock arsenal.

“I’m still singing the songs I wrote from the album,” he says, “and I never get tired of them. It did capture an amazing spirit and really has stood the test of time very well. I sing these songs 80, 90 times a year and I’m still loving them to death.”

Breakfast in America is testament to the time and energy Supertramp, and especially Hodgson, put into making the album for eight intense months in 1978.

The multi-instrumentalist, songwriter and arranger spent the final few weeks sleeping in Studio B of the Village Recorder in west LA.

I sing these songs 80, 90 times a year and I’m still loving them to death. Roger Hodgson

“I couldn’t let it go,” Hodgson says. “I’m like that. I knew it was a fantastic collection of songs. I felt it would do well, but I did not realise it would do quite as well as it did.”

Breakfast in America topped charts around the world, including Australia where it was the highest selling album of 1979. The album spawned four hit singles, including Goodbye Stranger sung by co-founder Rick Davies, and sold 4 million copies in the US alone.

“I think all that care and passion paid off because the songs really have stood up through the years,” Hodgson says. “If the balance between the instruments was wrong the whole feel of the songs wouldn’t work. Only I knew how it needed to be.”

The late 70s were a fertile period for the prolific Hodgson, whose wife Karuna was pregnant with their first child while Breakfast in America was gestating.

“We had a motorhome, a trailer, so I pulled that down to the studio and parked it outside,” he recalls.

“(My wife) was outside the studio while I was working. I’m not sure if I slept in the studio or just went out to the motorhome and slept, then went back to the studio in the morning. It was pretty manic.”

Hodgson drove that motorhome across the US on Supertramp’s 1979 tour. His daughter Heidi was born in the vehicle moments before the band were due to go on stage in San Diego.

“It was an exciting time,” Hodgson says. “There was a lot going on back then.”

The softly spoken Englishman says he still talks to Davies, 74, who has battled cancer since being diagnosed in 2015 on the eve of a Supertramp tour (without Hodgson).

“He’s been very sick, so we have been in touch,” Hodgson says. “There’s a very strong bond there because of what we went through and what we created, so that’ll always be there.”

But, there’s no chance of a reunion.

“I really don’t see that happening, no. I think that boat has sailed,” he says. “I’m not averse to that but Rick is not particularly well and I think his touring days are over.”

Besides, Hodgson’s solo tours are going gangbusters — his well-drilled five-piece band are due to play five nights at L’Olympia in Paris and two at London’s Royal Albert Hall this year.

He loves seeing generations of fans singing along to The Logical Song or Supertramp’s other hits, such as Give a Little Bit, Dreamer or It’s Raining Again.

“I don’t know about you but I never went to a concert with my dad,” Hodgson laughs. “It’s amazing to have made music that brings entire families together.”

I think all that care and passion paid off because the songs really have stood up through the years. Roger Hodgson

After leaving the UK more than 40 years ago, Hodgson says he misses the English sense of humour but he still prefers his breakfast in America.

“I landed in California at age 24 and I just fell in love with it — the spirit, the people, the openness, the weather, the space, the progressive thinking, the healthy food...

“Coming from England, it was like landing on a different planet. It was exactly what I needed to redefine myself.”

Roger Hodgson plays the Riverside Theatre on February 4. Tickets from Ticketek.
