to the 1970’s or 1980’s, we only had to close
our eyes to have the impression of listening to
the original vinyl."

magical performance! Because he hit the high notes
so well, along with his vocal acrobatics,
which soared to the heights of his days with
Supertramp, the public saw a concert of highest
level last night.The crowd left with the angels,
well above the air balloons."

"A show with an international impact..people
from every place in Spain and different European

and fifties), but also parents with their children
and young ones around twenty or thirty years old.
For many people in Tarragona, it was a great chance

falsetto voice hits all of those incredibly high
notes and he holds those long notes as if it were
nothing."

Music can be a friend
The Daily Star, Jun 2, 2011,
Emily Holman
"Hodgson’s
unique voice has lost none of its potency in the
four decades that have elapsed since Supertramp was
formed. As effective on stage as in the studio,
Hodgson’s rendering of such hits as “School” was
indistinguishable from the version he recorded so
long ago."

Gig Review: Liverpool Philharmonic Hall
LSMedia, May 30, 2011, Ian D. Hall
"For Roger Hodgson to come to Liverpool and
play at the Philharmonic Hall is one of those rare
moments in time that if you are a lover of good,
honest and well crafted songs delivered with style,
humour and grace then no matter what you had to be
there. ..His instantly recognisable vocal talents
have thrilled generation upon generation of music
lovers and judging by the reaction and ovations he
was receiving throughout the night, Roger doesn’t
look stopping from being held in very high affection
any time soon."

Review: Liverpool Philharmonic Hall
Chris High (freelance journalist), May 29, 2011
"..this, without question, is one of the most
polished and skillfully orchestrated performances
imaginable. From the opening Take The Long
Way Home to the closing It’s Raining
Again, this was a stunning night’s
entertainment during which Hodgson not only endeared
himself to the capacity audience that danced and
sang all night long, they adopted him."

Classic Rock Magazine, 2011, Fish
"..I played with Roger in Malta. It was just
him and his piano, and he was amazing. You just
forget how many memorable songs he's written. Just
listen to 'Breakfast in America' - so many amazing
songs on one album. And he's incredible as a
lyricist and a songwriter. His sense of melody is
unsurpassable, and the way he writes is just
pitch-perfect for his voice."

Die Engelsstimme
The Angelic Voice ~
Esslinger Zeitung, Mar 11,
2011
"Hodgson
produces an excess of sound variety and a powerful
spell around the many sensitive and vulnerable
songs. Even so, the poetic and the feel-good pieces
sound with rhythm changes and the staccato piano
plays so soulfully perfect. Hodgson's high voice is
powerful and clear, not a single false note falls in
between - it is as if time has stopped."

"Musically, the two-hour performance was at
its best. Like most of the music for 30 years or
more - even a song like "Dreamer" which is so
wonderful on the radio, is so refreshing live that
it pulls the audience from their seats. In the end,
the concert was very consistent at the highest level
and provided for many spine-tingling moments."

the first time live. They were amazed about the
quality of the songs, which was much better than the
Supertramp recordings."

Supertramp acoustic set at the Grammy Museum
Daily News, Mar 3, 2011, Gerry Gittelson
"So there he was Monday, going from the keys to
his guitar to a grand piano, delivering his
Supertramp songs so perfectly. Chills down our spine
or hair raised in the back of our neck? Try tears
streaming down our face. It was that moving. Indeed,
a special performance from a special artist whose
songs will always have a special place in my heart."

Roger Hodgson at Pechanga Resort
Pechanga Review, Feb 25, 2011
"First thing - the man has NOT lost any of his
vocal range. He's taken good care of his voice and
it never cracked or wavered once. He can still hit
all the same high notes, and if you're familiar with
Supertramp's hits there are plenty of them. So take
care of your vocal cords and they'll take care of
you!"

another." |
