Rites of Passage is the third album by Roger Hodgson, recorded in August 1996 near Hodgson's home in Nevada City, California and his first live album.

[2] The album features three Supertramp hits, six songs by Hodgson (five previously unrecorded), two songs written and performed as lead vocalist by Mikail Graham and one song written and performed as lead vocalist by Hodgson's son Andrew.

One of Hodgson's new songs, Showdown, later appeared in a more elaborate version on his studio album Open the Door.

The album was notable for featuring Supertramp member John Helliwell playing on all songs (except Andrew's solo performance), which was a rare exception given that there wasn't much contact between Roger Hodgson and Supertramp members after his split from the band.

[3] The album cover features the 1901 painting The Accolade by Edmund Blair Leighton.
