[Red Badger]

One of my favorite albums.............................

[Larry Lucido]

RIP

I referred to Breakfast in America on the 80s thread before FR was shut down. Guess I overloaded the board.

One band I would have loved to see live in concert, but never did.

RIP

[ShadowAce]

Started to listen to “Hide in Your Shell” as a remembrance

[Alas Babylon!]

The one thing I had against them, back in the day, was the idea that being conservative was forced on people...

“Now watch what you say or they’ll be calling you a radical,
liberal, fanatical, criminal.
Won’t you sign up your name, we’d like to feel you’re
acceptable, respectable, presentable, a vegetable!”

Peaceful hippies my a$$!

That’s a bummer. I know he’d been sick for a while. There’d been talk about him and Roger Hodgson making peace and maybe touring again but his health wasn’t up to. Amazing band.

I knew him and his wife Sue for many years when they still lived in Encino. Saw him right before he moved to New York. Very nice people and his wife was band manager.

The piano intro to “Fool’s Overture”.

[PGalt]

Great tunes. RIP Rick Davies.

[Tuxedo]

Deeply saddened for the loss of such a fine musical talent. My favorite band and unfortunately Rick and Roger will never reunite now. Great catalog of work from both of them. RIP Rick.

[OrangeHoof]

Watch what you say; they’ll be calling you a liberal...

[Tommy Revolts]

Hope you find your paradise

RIP Rick.  I think Rick was dealing with some health issues for a while. I generally preferred Roger's songs - more proggy and less bluesy - and his high-pitched vocals, but Crime of the Century was awesome, especially live! 4th row at MSG during the Breakfast tour.  Became a big Supertramp fan back in HS with Even in the Quietest Moments when all of my other friends were into Springsteen and Boston.

Really wish Roger and Rick didn't have that falling out.
