Although his name doesn’t appear as an official producer, Rundgren’s first big break after his departure from Nazz was helping roots rock stalwarts The Band craft their impressively funky third LP Stage Fright. Taking an especial interest in the complex keyboard interplay between the savant-level musicianship of Garth Hudson and the hardened boogie...
Like a number of Rundgren’s future production projects, Straight Up was fraught with difficulties and miscommunication. Unlike those future projects, Rundgren wasn’t initially a complicit party: Badfinger were being battered around by Apple Records, having their first attempt at the album produced by Beatles engineer Geoff Emerickshelved and their ...
Despite their combined reputations for eccentricity and intractability, Rundgren actually had a positive report with the Mael brothers when they worked together on Sparks’ debut LP. Sharing a similarly experimental bent and penchant for sugary melodies, the trio crafted what could very well be described as the band’s most accessible studio effort, ...
The great thing about Todd Rundgren was that he could work with anyone. Genres were blurred lines to him, and the singular sounds of an artist’s style took precedence over whether it was in line with what he personally would have done. The New York Dolls, in all their proto-punk sloppiness and jagged edges, were miles away from the increasingly int...
Grand Funk, it could be argued, were not a great band. A meat and potatoes hard rock outfit from Flint, Michigan, Grand Funk played unpretentious, uncomplicated good time rock and roll that sang about girls and cars and dancing, the farthest thing from “art” that you could possibly find. The trick for making Grand Funk a success wasn’t about making...
On the complete opposite spectrum from Grand Funk lies Meat Loaf, the theatrical wild man performer and his writer Jim Steinman, the poet laureate of excessive kitchen sink style rock and roll. The songs on Bat Out of Hell are multipart suites that owed as much to musical theatre as they did to Chuck Berry, and Rundgren placed all of his Phil Spect...
Bizarre new wave collective The Tubes were far too artsy to ever make a lasting impact on popular music. Their wild stage shows, consciously futuristic sound, and insistence on complex concepts to drive every aspect of the band’s existence meant that they were always destined for cult adoration. Fee Waybill’s singular warble spitting out a half-coh...
Such distinctive and idiosyncratic voices as Patti Smith and Todd Rundgrenshould, in an ideal world, cause creative explosions that result in career-defining albums for both. If that’s what you’re expecting going into Wave, you’ll be disappointed. But if you temper your expectations, what you’ll find is a consistently rewarding album that brings ou...
Rundgren’s production style very rarely overlapped with the predominant tastes of contemporary pop music. He was drawn to unique textures and restlessly forward-thinking sounds as opposed to popular trends. He was able to synthesize both, however, on The Psychedelic Furs Forever Now. ‘Love My Way’ is an indelible slice of ’80s pop, but the rest of ...
Now, finally, comes the culmination of all of Rundgren’s sometimes creatively fertile, sometimes combatively combustive tendencies. In most productions, Rundgren could either commandeer the album’s direction or sink into the background and let the band ride on their own peculiar inclinations. No such luck with Andy Partridge. The two fought, verbal...
