180g Audiophile Vinyl!
Mastered by Friday Music's Joe Reagoso From Original Bearsville Records Tapes!
As founding member of the late sixties Philly rockers Nazz, multi-instrumentalist, vocalist, songwriter and producer Todd Rundgren was barely in his 20s when he began his long solo journey and became one of the music industrys most prolific and celebrated rock artists.
For his very lengthy (close to sixty minutes) 4th album A Wizard, A True Star, the legendary Todd Rundgren delivered a huge album event complete with 19 stellar performances making this one of his most revered efforts of his four decade career. As with many of his solo albums, Todd played all of the instruments, sang, wrote 17 of the 19 tunes and produced this masterwork. The album also catapulted Todd Rundgrens marquee as a singer/songwriter even further with his smash radio hits Just One Victory, Sometimes I Dont Know What to Feel and his brilliant Philly soul R&B Medley: Im So Proud, Ooh Ooh Baby, La La Means I Love You and Cool Jerk.
Album opener International Feel immediately brings the listener onto a hypnotic prog-rock journey as only Todd Rundgren can deliver. With solid tracks like You Need Your Head, filled with exceptional guitar work, solid lyrical imagery and his rockin vocals, the artist truly pours it all out on this album. More Todd favorites abound as When The Shit Hits The Fan: Sunset Blvd. sets the stage for the rest of this masterwork into full swing.
Known to write some very key ballads in his long career, Todd nails one of his finest ever with his brilliant Philly soul sound on the aforementioned Sometimes I Dont Know What to Feel . Soon to be followed with more classic rockers like pop infused Does Anybody Love You and the iconic album closer Just One Victory, all would go on to become Todd Rundgren staples and some of his most enduring work ever recorded.
This amazing album hasnt been on vinyl for several decades that is until now...Friday Music is honored to announce for the first time ever release on two (2) 180 Gram Audiophile Vinyl LPs, the classic Todd Rundgren masterwork A Wizard, A True Star.
