Todd Rundgren to perform A Wizard, A True Star
By CMU Editorial | Published on Friday 29 May 2009
A collection of psychedelic tracks merging into one another, Todd Rungren’s 1973 album ‘A Wizard, A True Star’ was generally considered commercial suicide when it was originally released. However, since then it has found its audience and is today cited by artists including Hot Chip and Daft Punk as a major influence on their own work.
I’m mentioning this now because Rundgren will play the album live in its entirety for the first time in the UK on 6 Feb 2010 in a one-off performance at the Hammersmith Apollo in London. Tickets went on sale this week.
