A Wizard, A True Star, the title of his 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, Rundgren has made a lasting impact on both the form and content of popular music. He had produced more than fifty records for other artists, including Hall & Oates, Cheap Trick, Patti Smith, XTC, Grand Funk Railroad, The Band, and Meat Loaf's Bat Out of Hell.

Recorded live at the Ridgefield Playhouse in Ridgefield, Connecticut on December 15, 2015, Rundgren's new release includes some of his best known songs including "Hello It's Me", "I Saw The Light" and "Bang The Drum".  Plus, hear/watch fan favourites that haven't been performed live in decades, including songs from TR's unforgettable Utopia and Nazz anthems.



The set list consists of milestone Rundgren classics taken from his rich back catalogue, including songs from the albums "Something/Anything" (1972), "A Wizard, a True Star" (1973), "Faithful" (1976), "Hermit of Mink Hollow" (1978), "The Ever Popular Tortured Artist Effect"(1982), "A Cappella"(1985), "2nd Wind" (1991), "One Long Year" (2000), "Liars" (2004), "Global" (2015), plus key cuts from the Utopia albums "Oops! Wrong Planet" (1977), "Swing To The Right" (1982) and "POV" (1985), as well as from the first two albums by Todd's seminal 60's band The Nazz (1968 and 1969).
