Todd
Style: Rock
Label: Bearsville
Catalog Number: 2 BR 6952
Released: 1974, 70's
Building on the trippy, psychedelics inspired prog rock of his previous album, the wizard Todd Rundgren delivers another impossibly creative and structurally daring double LP filled with pop ballads, show tunes, folk-poetry, synthesizer prog, heavy metal, Philly soul, and much more. As usual, Todd does it all himself on the majority of tracks. “I did the Wizard album where the song ideas ranged from 15 seconds to 10 minutes. A further refinement of that idea is represented in Todd, and the refinement is that I’m breaking down all these barriers — removing the six spirals – just saying there are no limitations as to what is sung about or what the music sounds like, or how long it is… or whether it is even music at all.”
