Supertramp
Supertramp were an English rock band that formed in London in 1969. Marked by the individual songwriting of founders Roger Hodgson (vocals, keyboards, and guitars) and Rick Davies (vocals and keyboards), they are distinguished for blending progressive rock and pop styles as well as for a sound that relied heavily on Wurlitzer electric piano. The group's lineup changed numerous times throughout their career, with Davies being the only consistent member throughout the decades. Other longtime members included bassist Dougie Thomson, drummer Bob Siebenberg, and saxophonist John Helliwell. The band were initially a prog-rock group, but starting with their third album, '' Crime of the Century'' (1974), they began moving towards a more pop-oriented sound. They reached their commercial peak with 1979's '' Breakfast in America'', which yielded the international top 10 singles " The Logical Song", " Breakfast in America", " Goodbye Stranger", and " Take the Long Way Home".
