I first heard Todd in Philadelphia in 1972 on the great radio station WMMR . Later in 1973 moved to Florida , bought the Something / Anything 8 -track and played it on my way to work at Disney each day .

Thank you so much for posting this! What a mega talent! The man can do it all and on the highest level. Todd might not care about the R&RHOF, but I think this induction will turn on so many more people to his music and productions. And that's a good thing!
@EastmanD2 жыл бұрын
God I love me some Patti Smith. Wonderful that she gave his induction intro ! All Todd's fans should give themselves a huge pat on the back for being so persistent in our insistence that the great man be in the R&R HOF. Many think, Todd included, that the votes don't count and I certainly can see why they say that. But I also believe that he'd have never gotten in without them.This is his fan's victory as much as it is his. Great job you Runts !!

It has been so much fun to follow him throughout his career. We Gotta Get You a Woman was the first single/record I ever bought. Very meaningful that Patti Smith inducted him, given his admitted cringeworthy sexism towards her. Obviously all has been forgiven, and she knocked it out of the park. Nothing cements his independent, eccentric genius status more than the brief nod they've given here -- the literal least they could do.

I doubt the RRHoF will ever publicize this video. TR was unbothered by his decades-late nomination, only spoke about it in terms of being happy on behalf of his fans, and skipped the ceremony in favor of a relatively nearby concert he could have easily re-scheduled. In other words: 100% appropriate and on-brand for the inimitable Todd Rundgren. Thank you for the years of music, Todd. (Thanks, too, for posting this, Thom! Might be our only chance to see it!)

This induction may have given Todd another festher in his cap. His not attending showed he didn't really need it. He made a success of himself in his own unique, Todd way and whether he wins awards or was inductes into the Rock'n'Roll HOF takes nothing away from his brilliance and the joy he has brought to our lives. He trully is "a Wizard and a True Star" to all of us.
