288. Todd Rundgren - A Wizard, A Star

Release Date: 1973
Label: Bearsville

You'd expect a nineteen track album to be a double-album wouldn't you? Well this isn't, clocking in just under an hour. The first half of the album contains a plethora of songs that all last for around sixty seconds. Imagine an Abbey Road medley with songs like Mean Mr Mustard/Polythene Pam throughout and you'll get a rough idea. There are some lovely moments across the album - Rundgren clearly knows how to write a good song - but it lacks consistency, and really needs editing.

Rating: 6/10
