Todd Rundgren’s groundbreaking Progressive Pop, critically acclaimed fourth album, dropped to earth on March 2nd, 1973; and JD will celebrate by playing the entire record, without interruption, at 2 PM on Thursday, March 9th. Tune in to hear all 19 tracks, that blend together as a stream-of-consciousness experiment in psychedelic infused Pop, Rock, Soul and Show tunes… All written, engineered, produced and performed by Todd Rundgren. It was a radical departure for Todd, and paved the way for his Progressive Rock band, Utopia. Look for the 50th anniversary vinyl reissue next month on Record Store Day
