thread from 2009…soon to be revised
Have you ever thought about old music you really loved, and you can’t remember them fading away, let alone being really gone or why.
This thread is about the musicians, we know longer hear anymore, and what happened to them? Maybe even a taste of their music too…
So who is it you listened to, and only hear them on youtube or if you can find it to purchase?

People Gotta Be Free
30 years later w/Felix Cavaliere singing People gotta be Free
people gotta be free for the troops in 2007 Love fest
All the world over, so easy to see
People everywhere just wanna be free
Listen, please listen, that’s the way it should be
Peace in the valley, people got to be free
You should see, what a lovely, lovely world this would be
If everyone learned to live together
It seems to me such an easy, easy thing this would be
Why can’t you and me learn to love one another
All the world over, so easy to see
People everywhere just wanna be free
I can’t understand it, so simple to me
People everywhere just got to be free
Ah, ah, yeah . . . ah, ah, yeah
If there’s a man who is down and needs a helping hand
All it takes is you to understand and to see him through
Seems to me, we got to solve it individually
And I’ll do unto you what you do to me
There’ll be shoutin’ from the mountains on out to sea
(out to the sea)
No two ways about it, people have to be free
(they got to be free)
Ask me my opinion, my opinion will be
(ah-ha)
It’s a natural situation for a man to be free
Oh, what a feelin’s just come over me
Enough to move a mountain, make a blind man see
Everybody’s dancin’, come on, let’s go see
Peace in the valley, now they want to be free

A Message From Supertramp
05.08.10
A MESSAGE FROM SUPERTRAMP
In June of 2008 Rick Davies went to meet with Roger Hodgson to discuss the possibility of a reunion with him. After fifteen months of discussions, last fall Rick and Roger did not come to an agreement as was hoped. Roger decided to continue his solo career as he has since leaving Supertramp twenty-seven years ago.
After a bit of soul searching and much encouragement and support from Supertramp’s longstanding promoters, Rick decided to put the band back on the road.
The “70-10 Tour” is a celebration of 40 years of Supertramp, which Rick started in 1970, but it is not a reunion with Roger Hodgson. We wish Roger well and look forward to playing for you this fall.
We sincerely hope this puts an end to the confusion that has been circulating on the internet and in the press.
Hodgson Bans Ex-Bandmate From Singing His Songs
From contactmusic.com
Former SUPERTRAMP frontman ROGER HODGSON has asked former bandmate RICK DAVIES not to perform any of the songs he wrote when he tours this summer using the band’s name.
Hodgson, who quit Supertramp in 1983, was furious when Davies announced plans to perform a 40th anniversary tour this year, without inviting him to take part.
And he’s now trying to block Davies from using any of the songs Hodgson – the band’s chief songwriter – penned during his time in the group.
Hodgson says, “I expect Rick to honor the agreement he and I made that the band would not play my songs.
“Since the current Supertramp is a vehicle for Rick’s music, which is very different from my style and songs, it’s important for Supertramp to stay true to Rick’s style and songs and avoid doing covers of my songs. Rick and I both knew that doing that would help create a clear delineation between Supertramp and Roger Hodgson when we agreed to part ways.”
———————————————————————————————————-
Supertramp have surprised everyone by announcing a 40th anniversary tour – and without co-founder-member Roger Hodgson.
No dates have been confirmed as yet, but the band will be led by Rick Davies (vocals/keyboards) with the possibility that both John Helliwell (vocals/keyboards/woodwind) and Bob Siebenberg (drums) will be involved.
However, neither Hodgson (vocals/guitar/keyboards) nor Dougie Thompson (bass) – regarded as being part of the band’s classic line-up – have been invited to be part of the celebrations.
This hasn’t gone down well with Hodgson. In a statement, his management say: “We’ve been told that they are billing the tour as the 40th anniversary tour of the band and we just find this very surprising, misleading and disrespectful of Roger since he is the only other member that was a part of Supertramp when he and Rick founded the band together 40 years ago. [Dougie joined the band in 1972 and John and Bob a year later in 1973.]
“It would seem that you would want to invite the other co-founder and the bass player of the classic line up for the 40th anniversary of the band. So, we’re really hoping it doesn’t create any confusion in the marketplace or mislead anyone into thinking that a 40th anniversary tour means a reunion tour with Roger Hodgson and Dougie Thompson. And with not inviting them, it seems it would have been more straightforward to simply call it a Supertramp tour.”
