Todd Rundgren was interviewed for the NAMM Oral History program

Todd Rundgren was interviewed for the NAMM Oral History program the same day he was presented with inducted into the TEC Awards Hall of Fame. His visit to the NAMM show was his first in many years, however back in the 1970s and 80s Todd was often seen as a product endorser for string and guitar companies. Todd spoke of his career and passion for music with a focus on the gear he used over the years. He also spoke of his recent efforts in music advocacy and his desire to encourage as many young students to become music makers as possible!

Nikki Nichols Passing..

Very sad to see the news Michele MIchele Gray Rundgren posted about Nikki's passing. What a hilarious guy and a major part of Todd/Utopia history.

If you are not familiar with Nikki, listen to the RR show when he was a guest - link provided in the comment section.

Ringo Starr announced Nov. 10 that he and his All Starr Band will begin a new series of tour dates to begin in February. The shows will start in the U.S., then travel to Mexico, Latin America and South America before returning to North America.

The new tour will begin in Louisiana with U.S. dates in Texas, Alabama, South Carolina and Florida, then hit the Dominican Republic and Puerto Rico. It then moves to South America for dates in Brazil, Chile and Columbia. The final swing will feature it moving back to North America for dates in Mexico and California before winding up in Las Vegas March 15.

The band, featuring Steve Lukather, Richard Page, Gregg Rolie, Todd Rundgren, Gregg Bissonette and Warren Ham, is basically the same band he's played with since 2012. “We have so much fun playing together we don’t want it to end!," Starr says. He has also praised touring in Latin America, saying, “The audiences were just great and so loving, we can’t wait to go back."

Ringo and the All-Starr Band spent June and July of 2014 on tour in the U.S. That tour, announced in January, began in June in Ontario, Canada, and covered dates in New York, Virginia, Connecticut, Rhode Island, New York, North Carolina, Michigan, Illinois, Ohio, California, Washington and a few dates in Canada. In February 2014, Simon & Shuster published"Octopus's Garden," a children's book based on Ringo's lyrics that also included a CD of him singing a new version of the song.

The Collection of Todd Rundgren to be Auctioned at Julien's Auctions for Benefit of his Spirit of Harmony Foundation

For Immediate Release: 

The Collection of Todd Rundgren to be Auctioned at Julien's Auctions for Benefit of his Spirit of Harmony Foundation

Friday, November 7, 2014

Beverly Hills, California - (October 28, 2014) - Singer, songwriter, record producer and prolific instrumentalist Todd Rundgren will auction memorabilia from his personal and professional career at Julien's Auctions in Beverly Hills for the benefit of his Spirit of Harmony Foundation. The collection includes stage played instruments to personal clothing and will give fans and collectors a chance to bid on items which have become synonymous with Rundgren's legendary contributions to the world of music.  

Rolling Stone magazine calls Rundgren an eclectically accomplished musician and virtuoso. He has been recording for more than three decades with his influence spanning simple pop to the progressive rock of Utopia. Aside from performing, he has served as producer on some of rock n' roll's most successful releases and is regarded as a pioneer of rock video, interactive CD and Web-based music. In his early career he was ahead of the time sporting Mod haircuts and Beatles-ish pop sound along with a musical sophistication when he formed the band Nazz in the late 1960s. After Nazz broke up, Rundgren formed Runt and hit the Top 20 in 1971 with the single "We Gotta Get You a Woman."  In the early 1970s Rundgren had hit singles with "I Saw the Light" and "Hello It's Me."  He also is known as a prolific producer with such credits as Meatload's "Bat Out of Hell,"  Badfinger's Straight Up LP, New York Doll's debut LP, Grand Funk Railroad's "We're an American Band," Fanny's Mother Pride and many others.

Highlights of the Collection of Todd Rundgren which will be offered during the Icons & Idols: Rock n' Roll auction event at Julien's Auctions include a Todd Rundgren video worn "Le Garage" shirt, a Todd Rundgren stage played Italia guitar, a Todd Rundgren original album cover art, a Todd Rundgren Tascam M-2516 mixer and also a Roland RD-300 digital piano, Beatles and Ringo Starr memorabilia, Todd Rundgren achievement awards, a Todd Rundgren stage worn Patti Hobart suit and many other items.

Proceeds from the iconic collection will benefit the Spirit of Harmony Foundation founded by Rundgren in 2013.  The foundation's mission is to provide opportunities for personal development and self-expression through the support of music and music education. The Spirit of Harmony Foundation supports the moral imperative of music education and music performance. The foundation nurtures the cultural, academic, social, neurological and personal benefits of music through fundraising, special events, mentoring, advocacy, social entrepreneurship and strategic partnerships.As Rundgren said, "We are less bricks and more mortar, to fill in the cracks, to come in and identify problems and help fix those problems.  We are there to add consistent, constant support."  For more information on the Spirit of Harmony Foundation go towww.spiritofharmony.org. To view the Icons & Idols: Rock n' Roll auction catalog and see more of the Collection of Todd Rundgren go to www.juliensauctions.com.

COMEDY SINGER RED PETERS NEW DUET WITH TODD RUNDGREN

COMEDY SINGER RED PETERS NEW DUET WITH TODD RUNDGREN

Website: http://www.redpeters.com/
Music: http://www.handsomebrothers.com/downloads/Red%20Peters/BlowMe-Red[...]
In late 2012, as Red Peters was busy monitoring his social media sites, he began receiving messages from fans in various cities about one of his most beloved songs. At shows across America, songwriter and record producer, Todd Rundgren and his band had been performing Red’s signature song “Blow Me (You Hardly Even Know Me)”.
Peters wrote and recorded the original “Blow Me” with the Babe Marino Orchestra in the summer of 1984. Initially released as a 45 rpm single, it became a cult favorite in jukeboxes across America and a staple on underground FM radio.

Since Red had recently begun working on an album concept that involved collaborating with other artists, he approached Rundgren and asked if he would like to sing a duet of the song to commemorate the 30th anniversary of the original recording.

Rundgren (“Hello It’s Me”, “I Saw The Light”, “Bang The Drum All The Day”) agreed, and over the next several months, after settling on a suitable musical direction and a new big band arrangement by producer, Ed Grenga, each artist recorded their vocals virtually- Rundgren in Hawaii and Peters in Boston.

The result was a new, lively spoken introduction, and a fresh and classic interpretation of the song which also features background vocals from three of the original surviving members of the Alan Pinchloaf Singers.

NYC illustrator, Timothy Shamey reprises his talents, as he has on many of Red’s music projects, creating quintessential caricatures of both performers for the cover art.

The song, will be released September 9, 2014 on Ball Bag Records. It will be available in four versions: one with the spoken intro, one without, and both bleeped. It can be downloaded wherever fine music is sold, including iTunes, amazon, etc.

1. Blow Me (You Hardly Even Know Me) 2:50
2. Blow Me (You Hardly Even Know Me) w/spoken intro 3:14
3. Blow Me (You Hardly Even Know Me) bleeped 2:50
4. Blow Me (You Hardly Even Know Me) w/spoken intro bleeped

SAVE THE DATE! Block your calendars for the 2015 Labor Day weekend

From RundgreRadio Doug:

So, year 8 for RR is now in effect!

Just talked to RundgrenRadio Mel and we have agreed to announce a SAVE THE DATE! Block your calendars for the 2015 Labor Day weekend (9/4-7) because the odds are great we will be hosting another Bday Bash!

We are feeling good that this year's attendees wouldn't dare miss it. We are also confident that we would add others that couldn't make it this year because of our late announcement (i.e. Kim H, Keith K, etc) and Todd's annual camp being so close to Labor Day weekend when it's normally in June during his birthday week.

Our ideal situation would be to get a unique Todd gig and throw the party in Akron but it takes two to tango and if we can't get it done we'll still throw a party somewhere in the US barring any unforeseen circumstances out of our control.

Thanks again to all the attendees of RR BDAY BASH V who took a chance on us this year after talking us into hosting the Bday Bash - you have opened our eyes! See you next year if not before then - now go get some sleep

Todd at the BBC 1972-82

 this message was on facebook>>

Esoteric Recordings are pleased to announce the first ever official release of TODD RUNDGREN AT THE BBC. This
four-disc collection comprises three CDs and a DVD (NTSC / Region Free) featuring all of the surviving radio and
television broadcasts in the BBC archive transmitted on radio and television in the UK between 1972 and 1982. This will be up on our website on pre-sell in around 7 days and is a late October release . I will send the tracklisting to Doug separately to add as at the moment its not up on pre-sell I cant link easily to it without it being one helluva post!! As I did with the Electric Ballroom release I thought I would make the offer of selling direct to people on the site to see if I can make it way more reasonable for you than Amazon in the USA. Therefore this will be $34.50 including shipping (4 disc set --3 cds plus DVD) --sorry it cant be less, shipping is the killer cost! I am sure this will be cheaper than other suppliers and you will get at the point of release but if not cheaper--if I will refund the cost! I cant say fairer than that. Anyone who would like to buy-- paypal payments only to esotericarts@btconnect.com --Many thanks as always for all your support for Todd-----a new album in the Spring too!
