Todd Rundgren - The Complete Bearsville Albums Collection (1970-82) (2016) Box Set 13CD

Todd Rundgren's classic run of the '70s and early '80s gets the budget box treatment in The Complete Bearsville Albums Collection. These albums -- the first being Runt, the last being The Ever Popular Tortured Artist Effect; all studio albums apart from the epic double live set Back to the Bars, all solo, no Utopia LPs -- have been reissued many times, most recently in deluxe editions by Edsel. Any of the bonus tracks that have popped up on these reissues are absent -- this applies not just to the alternate Runt that finally surfaced in the 2010s, but also the EP that came with Healing, included on an early Rhino CD reissue -- but each of the records is attractive as a mini-LP, the sound is good, and the price is cheap, so it's a good, easy way to get the Todd basics.
