This is a brilliant brilliant underrated musician, songwriter, producer, creative thinker...you name it! - Rundgren is the G.O.A.T. "Just One Victory" - is sheer genius and a personal musical anthem for tens of thousands include me!

"Wizard a true star" will always be my all time favorite " song" . The entire album is so perfectly fluid that it has to be listened to in it's entirety , in my humble opinion.

Well Todd, ACDC made a carrer just off of 3 cords. 3 cord tunes are hooks for airplay and great head bobbin music, tho boring as hell for geniuses past and present like the Eddie Van Halens and Joe Satriani's of the world to play. Being a Southern boy growing up in the deep south most of my redneck friends liked Johnny Paychecks work sucks song with,"Take This Job and Shove it", or Brooks and Dunn's "Hard working Man", but for me, it's Rundgren's "Bang On The Drum All Day", which obviously is better than working lol

Has probably two of his best compositions of the 80's on that record, Hideaway and Drive. But understand, this was his last record for Bearsville, so a lot of this material was stuff he was trying to get out to fill a record obligation before moving to Warner.

@@garymacdougall43 Makes sense. However I think after Initiation the quality of the records took a heavy dip. I didn't like Faithful nor Healing. Hermit of Mink Hollow was pretty good, kind of a throwback to his earlier records, and it has some top-notch themes there too. I don't know, he was making so many awesome records and then hel kinda fell down for some reason. Utopia goes on tho.

@@tralphstreet Actually... his best two records (in my opinion) came in the late 80's and the 90's with Nearly Human (probably his best record of the last 30 years) and Second Wind (a close second...lol), after that I'd have to say that Liars, Global and White Night are all very good records. Not quite up to the standards of the aforementioned, but are great in their own right. And along the way, he had some gems with Acapella, and The Individualist -- the thing to remember here about Todd, it's the journey with him that's the fun part. You just can't pinpoint where he's going next or what he'll do, but I can always find several great songs off any of his records. If you've not listened to Nearly Human or Second Wind, I highly suggest doing so (or giving it re-listen).

@@garymacdougall43 Todd was never interested in re-visiting pop-hits land, i.e.- writing "Hello, It's Me" over and over again. He made his money producing which freed him up to experiment with his own music. You are spot on when you state that with Todd "it's the journey"; I'll always follow him because I trust him to go somewhere interesting. To your recommendations for Nikephor I would add "Healing". I saw him perform it in toto at the Keswick a few years back and it was incredible. (And for the record I think "Bang The Drum" is silly, but it's fun and he's made serious bank off it, so there's that.)
