Rick Davies, the founder and lead singer of the British rock band Supertramp, who co-wrote some of its biggest hits and lent a biting, world-weary tone to its music, died on Saturday. He was 81.英國搖滾樂團「超級流浪漢」的創始人兼主唱里克戴維斯於週六去世，享年81歲。他參與創作了樂團的多首熱門歌曲，並為其音樂注入了辛辣、厭世的基調。

Supertramp 樂團成立於 1969 年，1974 年憑藉專輯《世紀罪案》（Crime of the Century）取得商業突破，並成為 20 世紀七八十年代最受歡迎的英國樂團之一。專輯中的熱門歌曲《Bloody Well Right》由戴維斯先生用沃利舍電鋼琴開場，而他對沃利舍電鋼琴的運用也成為了樂隊音樂的標誌性特徵。

The album was named after the final song, "Crime of the Century", which the band members felt was the strongest song on the album.^[11] The phrase “Crime of the Century” is a sensationalist trope which has been applied to various notorious crimes in history. Its application to more than one crime per century speaks to its hyperbolic nature.^[15]

這張專輯以專輯的壓軸曲《世紀罪案》（Crime of the Century）命名，樂團成員認為這首歌是專輯中最有感染力的歌曲。 [11] 「世紀罪案」這個說法是個聳人聽聞的比喻，曾被用來形容歷史上各種惡名昭彰的犯罪。它每個世紀都被用來形容不只一起犯罪，這充分說明了它的誇張性。 [15]
