    Fernando Perdomo - TRGTR (Rundgren Instrumentals Cover Album)

    Recently, Fernando Perdomo released this truly awesome album of instrumental covers of Todd Rundgren tracks. It features some deep cuts for the true Rundgren fan. Pretty much every number is excellent, even the big hits, which usually aren’t among my favorite TR songs. Some serious guitar wailing! A limited edition of 100!

    Thank you for the heads-up. I’m a massive Todd fan, and will definitely be interested in this release, but will probably go download only on this one given the extremely limited CD run. Added to my Bandcamp wish list for the next special Friday.

    Sure wish he would release The Out To Sea trilogy on vinyl. That would make for a beautiful set.

    When I preordered, I only bought the download/steaming.Then when it was released and I listened to it, I knew I needed the CD because I’m going to listen to it a lot! So I ended up overpaying by $10, but it’s worth it! And of course I’m sure he can use the moolah...

    It’s funny: I wish Todd’s “Faithful” was as good a Beatles tribute album as this is a TR tribute album! Of course “Faithful” isn’t a regular tribute album, but it’s a one-trick pony compared to this.

    Faithful isn’t really any sort of tribute album, it always seemed more a showpiece of Todd’s production skills. That side is fairly redundant today, but it had some great Todd tunes on the reverse.

    I can't find on his page now. Did he say anything about it? He does have some other pictures of the new CD, I guess since just recently started shipping them out. Funny!

    EDIT: I found it!

    Hey thanks for the heads up on this one Jed. Just ordered the CD. I figured with a run of 100 it won't be around for long!
