Roger Hodgson on the 75th birthday: Such a simple man

Dreamer, seeker, melody: Roger Hodgson from “Supertramp”, everyone’s secret favorite band, will be 75.

Well, others were responsible for the wild, for the rough anyway. Brief look at the British rock stars of the late 70s, early 80s: Robert Plant Plant and Freddie Mercury and Ian Gillan and David Bowie and David Gilmour, Lauter Giant-but in the middle of it is a polite man, modest, narrow face, jesus-like appearance, sometimes with guitar, sometimes with an e-piano, and sings the other with a high voice from a voice before. Roger Hodgson, born in Portsmouth on the English south coast in 1950, was not an icon of his time, but he has with the giant band Supertramp Songs sung in their heads – and yes, you have to say: heart – burned the world.
