Supertramp

A (relatively) in-depth analysis of British Rock band Supertramp in just over fifteen minutes.

Supertramp are a British rock group and successfully straddled both progressive rock and pop-rock. Formed in 1970, all members were multi-instrumentalists. Co-founder, composer and lead singer, Roger Hodgson left the band in 1983 to focus on raising his family and a maintaining a more spiritual existence.

Although Supertramp are known for ambitious concept albums, they are best known for radio-friendly hits such as “Dreamer” and “The Logical Song”. According to Hodgson, both these songs were based on his experiences growing up in the English countryside and attending boarding school.

In this episode I am in conversation with Dr. Andrew Webber.

I hope you enjoy the podcast and do leave feedback if you like what you have heard.
