Hodgson, speaking from Paris, continued: 'Rick didn’t even like Breakfast In America. 'Even someone in the music industry could not believe that I was not part of the Supertramp tour after hearing my songs announcing their shows on the radio.' Due to all the radio announcements playing my voice and my songs, so many people are being fooled into thinking that I will be there. 'She was completely shocked when she found out I wasn't part of the Supertramp tour. He said: 'Another example of the misleading advertising happened on Tuesday - a promoter that has been working with us to book a show for 2011 sent an email asking to meet me at the Supertramp concert later this week. Indeed, he says that earlier this week, even a promoter was shocked to find out he was not on the current tour - because of the 'misleading advertising.' However, Hodgson claims he was not even invited on to the tour, called the 70:10 tour, despite offering to rejoin his former band following a fans campaign.Ĭhart-topper: Their 1979 album Breakfast In America was a huge hit ‘Supertramp is a brand name and a trademark owned by Rick - but fans want to hear the songs sung by the man who wrote them.'Īpproximately one-third of the songs on the set list for the current tour were written by Hodgson. Songs like Dreamer come from a pure place – especially when life for so many people is very difficult right now.’ Rick wanted to put bums on seats – and my songs have turned out to be timeless. However, over time, the need to sell concert tickets seems to have caused Davies to renege on the claimed agreement. I have had so many fans writing to me regarding this.’Īccording to Hodgson, after he left, the band initially did not play his songs. ‘They're singing my songs and using radio ads with my voice to sell the tickets. Speaking exclusively to the Daily Mail, Hodgson said: 'There is a big difference between imitating someone and being the authentic artist who wrote the song.’

He also says he has been ‘inundated’ by furious fans because radio advertisements for the tour have, he claims, been using his songs and his vocals before announcing details of the show. Keeping on touring: Rick Davies has continued to use the Supertramp name after Hodgson left the group in 1983
