Being a Todd Rundgren fan , his releases are my most vivid memories.I would
wait for each release the way I used to with the Beatles.Even the Utopia
albums.Then I would settle into them, and they would become that sountrack
you speak of. Even named my son Todd R. , but that's another story.
For me it was Roy Wood's "Boulders".And the Move's "Message from the
Country".
