Rick wrote and played the music that was a large part of the soundtrack of my life. Such a talented, passionate man and artist. The news of his passing was palpable...a deep sadness...for me, and likely many others. And for more than just his loved ones. He was that great.

Few are the popular musicians who touch us as deeply in old age as youth but Supertramp fans benefited from the depth of Rick and Roger's inspired lyrical messages that grow in meaning as our outlook progresses, widens, deepens. Supertramp music is perhaps the only collection I can't overplay, never had to set aside for rejuvenation, across half a century. Long Way Home still transports me across time and Downstream remains a favorite love song. Vale Rick and condolences to family, band, friends."

I am so very sad to hear of Ricks' death. He was an incredibly talented and naturally gifted musician who was solely responsible for the keyboard which is immediately identifiable with his famous group and used by many groups afterwards. Wonderful strong voice too. A lovely man who enjoyed jazz, especially Horace Silver. Thank you Rick....Swindon is in mourning.

To the family, friends and fans please accept my most sincere condolences for this huge loss of such an amazing talent. We grew up with the sounds and music of Supertramp. They became the soundtrack of our coming of age into this world as teenagers and also later as adults. His unmistakable voice and talent will be cherished for years to come. May God grant you all His peace through saving faith and eternal salvation through belief in our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. Amen.

So sad to hear. Supertramp will always have a deep place in my musical memories. Breakfast album was one of my favorites all time and I saw Rick at the Universal Amphitheater in LA when I was a teen back in the late eighties. Even after they had parted as a band Rick was still epic and the band sounded awesome. God bless the family as they mourn.
