SUMMARY:Todd Rundgren: Still Me (Still We)
DESCRIPTION:A Wizard\, A True Star.\nThe title of Todd Rundgren’s 1973 solo album aptly sums up the contributions of this multi-faceted artist to state-of-the-art music. As a songwriter\, video pioneer\, producer\, recording artist\, computer software developer\, conceptualist\, and interactive artist (re-designated TRi)\, Rundgren has made a lasting impact on both the form and content of popular music. \nBorn and raised in Philadelphia\, Rundgren began playing guitar as a teenager\, going on to found and front The Nazz\, the quintessential `60’s psychedelic group. In 1969\, he left the band to pursue a solo career\, recording his debut offering\, the legendary Runt . But it was 1972’s seminal Something/Anything?\, on which he played all the instruments\, sang all the vocal parts\, and acted as his own producer\, that catapulted Todd into the superstar limelight\, prompting the press to unanimously dub him ‘Rock’s New Wunderkind’. It was followed by such landmark LPs as The Hermit of Mink Hollow and the above mentioned A Wizard\, A True Star\, as well as such hit singles as I Saw The Light\, Hello It’s Me\, Can We Still Be Friends\, and Bang The Drum.
