Welcome to the Music & Culture corner of Motorsport Motorhome Hub. You might wonder why a motorhome site talks about songs, but music travels with us on the road, in the kitchen, and even at the campsite. Here you’ll find bite‑size updates, quick reviews, and a few deep dives that keep you in the loop without the fluff.
Just this week the music world lost a legend – Rick Davies, the voice and piano heart of Supertramp, passed away at 81. He fought multiple myeloma for years, yet kept writing and performing right up to the end. If you remember hits like “Goodbye Stranger” or “The Logical Song,” you heard his fingers on the keys and his soulful vocals shaping the band’s sound.
Davies co‑founded Supertramp in the early ’70s and helped craft the Grammy‑winning Breakfast in America. After co‑leader Roger Hodgson left, Rick kept the band alive, touring into the 1990s and even playing local gigs in New York. His story shows how a true musician can adapt, stay relevant, and keep the music alive for new fans.
