Just when you think you've got Todd pinned down to either melodic ballads or hard-driving rock, he throws you something else that defies classification. Already a pioneer in rock video and a sought-after producer, Todd produces another album chock full of his wit and talent. "A Cappella" lives up to its name in that Todd sings vocals only on this album, but uses then-ground-breaking technology to mold these vocals into smooth, melodic songs that paint some very vivid pictures. "Lost Horizon", a song inspired by the death of a friend, remains a concert favorite, while "Pretending to Care" will give you food for thought about hidden agendas in your relationship. This CD is a lot more than just some silly songs sung and put through the electronic wringer -- there's a lot of depth and emotion few artists are able to express this well.Read full review
Excellent material, clean cover & disk. Glad for the proper packaging.

We saw this show in 1988 then stumbled on the tape and played it to extinction. Now we are overplaying the CD. We didn't even expect to find this on disk. If you are a Todd Rundgren fan it's a must for your collection. Every note and beat in every song is his voice either live or through a keyboard computer called an emulator. (For the live show he had a choir that emulated the emulator - it was amazing.)
