Untitled[edit]

I created this page because it was high on Wikipedia:Most wanted articles and because I'm a Crimson fan, but finding any info on this guy is tough. This article is missing some basic info such as birthdate, city of birth, and what the hell has he done for the past 30 years? If anyone has verifiable info please add it to the page. --דוד ♣ D Monack 23:03, 6 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

I tried to rework the article by taking bits from the John Wetton biography "My Own Time" and the interviews as found in the links. Since I'm not a natural english writer, i hope somebody will be able to correct the wrong words or phrases properly. Cheers, Herb66

"...and wrote the lyrics"?[edit]

The current version of this article says: "He was a founding member of Supertramp; he performed and wrote the lyrics for their self-titled debut album..." Is there any basis for this claim? The album itself says simply "All words and music by Richard Davies, Rodger Hodgson, and Richard Palmer", so if Palmer in fact wrote all the lyrics to the album, that statement needs a reference. Not only is there no such reference in the article, but checking the article history I see that the editor who added that claim provided no justification. If anyone has genuine reason to believe that Palmer wrote all the lyrics to Supertramp, please post it here; otherwise, we'll have to delete that claim.--Martin IIIa (talk) 13:36, 26 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Never mind; I found a reference.--Martin IIIa (talk) 12:11, 27 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]
