“A Wizard, A True Star” by Todd Rundgren - album review
features in: Album Chart of 1973 ● Album Chart of the Decade: 1970s ● 1001 Albums You Must Hear Before You Die  |
A slight improvement on last year's “Something / Anything?”, but that's not saying much. He starts off well enough with some semi-decent synth-heavy psychedelic-pop tracks, but the whole thing soon descends into an unappealing, gimmicky mess full of tedious twonkery. Run! Save yourselves!
