(Todd Rundgren - Wearing Icon status rather well)

Tonight's edition of the Roundtable heads over to The Forum in London for a set by Todd Rundgren recorded on October 7, 1994.

Classic Rundgren and non-stop Rundgren, one of the really great live performers and certainly one of the most enduring. Going back to his early days as part of The Nazz, he has consistently delivered a string of incredible albums, and is still going strong today.

If you aren't familiar with him (and I can't imagine anyone remotely interested in music who isn't), check out any of his classic albums and head over to his website to see what he's up to now. In the meantime, here's a one-hour taste.

Never a dull moment.

speaking of never dull . .

Ok, so I was feeling a little melancholy this evening. Sue me. I wanted to post something that took me back to a certain place in time and this version of "Hello It's Me" from 1973 fit the bill.

Todd Rundgren is a unique and underrated artist. His work with Nazz and Utopia was good, but I always preferred his solo work. I enjoy listening to all kinds of music, but have found myself in a 70's, mellow mode as of late. Maybe it's the holidays?
