Bob, the extract from your book is a very good read. You write well!

Wow this is beautifully detailed. It just amazes me how you can remember all this. If I tried to write a book on my life, I would really struggle to put the reader right there in the picture and yet this is how I felt reading your extract....

I ran across the "demo" pages of your book (to be published) and read every sentence as if I was drinking water after a day in the desert without a drop of it! It is absolutely priceless! I have read 3 books about Supertramp and they were all good and very interesting but your inside view simply puts it on another level! It amazed me to read some excerpts exactly the way I felt and perceived them throughout the years while listening to Supertramp music. Two examples are: The way you describe your playing the song Crime of the Century (which I admire so, so much and believe it to be of ultimate importance for the the song itself!)  and the strugle of Rick playing and singing that specific part in Cannonball (which I have to adapt in order to be able to play and sing myself).

I am so thrilled with the expectation of reading the stories and experiences revealed in your book. Can't wait to have it in my hands!

All the best and thank you so much for the music you have given me through Supertramp!

 

Bob,

Always loved the way you played. Are you still playing drums ??

Hi Bob, what drum sizes did you use to record breakfast in America? did you use Cody‘s ambassadors to blow with lots of offline? Thanks Greg
