I thought this was cool when it came out.

This version begs the question, why?

The Rundgren track is from a Tribute lp version of the first lp.....they list the players in the article for each track. Rundgren and Arthur Brown did vocals only on '21st Man....'

It didn't start with Covid but it seems guesting remotely on songs/albums has become an epidemic. Gone are the days of having to actually show up at a studio to record with somebody. I'm a Todd fan and yes, I'm complaining about him. He has been in the money grab bag business for a while now and some of it is tough to stomach!

I lost track of Todd years ago after Hermit of Mink Hollow (1978) so dont know much about him and money grabbing.
I like all the earlier lps and even his Nazz days but I had a number of his lps already so stopped buying them. Also enjoyed a few of the early Utopia lps. There are so many good artists that one simply doesnt have the time or money to follow everyone.
I'm going to give a listen to all his newer things working backwards to see what I missed....if anything.
