Todd Rundgren – Arena
What begins as an other-worldy peice of wonder very quickly falls into dated 80’s inspired rock with not the strongest of lead vocals you’ll likely hear fronting a rock act. Todd Lundgren might want to consider a side project in the ethereal world of music as he can work that crowd with ease. Even when his voice is being distorted it sounds much better than his rock rendition.
There are moments of decency to be found (Mercenary is worth a shot) among the more work-man like remainder of the album.
Maybe when he’s finished paying hoimage to ACDC (Strike isnt fooling anyone) then he can move on to something more soulful and better suited to his talents.
