RIP, he was the founding member of Supertramp, one of my fave bands of all time.

RIP
Saw them at Massey Hall in 74 I guess it was. Crime of the Century tour. Great concert. Great album.

One of my favourite groups of all time. What a combination of talents, and Davies writing style contrasted well with Hodgson's writing style to add variety in their music. Even though the chances were very slim, I always hoped for a reunion. Well, now that will only happen in heaven. RIP and thanks.

Chicks dug Supertramp, if you wanted to get laid you went to one of their concerts.

RIP Rick.

They were one of my favourite bands.

I saw they on Oct. 24th. 1985 at Maple Leaf Gardens. They played this song with the video on a giant screen behind the stage. It was an amazing show. Such talented musicians.

I've been trying to find any comments Rodger Hodgson has made regarding Davies passing, but I've been unsuccessful. If anyone comes across this please post. Thanks.

Great band and even greater musician - RIP.

This is all I found so far on Roger Hodgson's comments regarding Davies passing. Not sure if it's accurate.

This is from the same source as my above post, but this is John Anthony Heliwell's thoughts regarding Davies passing. Again, not sure of the accuracy.
