Rundgren, Todd
Nearly Human
Rare & Collectible Vinyl Records

1989 Original Vinyl With Custom Inner Sleeve. Gold Promo Stamp On Front Cover. Appears Glossy, Unplayed. "As The '80s Drew To A Close, Todd Rundgren Turned Over A New Leaf With His First Album Recorded Specifically For Warner Bros. Not Long After The Release Of A Cappella, He Separated From Bearsville And Disbanded Utopia, Choosing To Embark On A Few Years As A Producer And Session Man. He Finally Returned With Nearly Human, His First Album Of New Material In Four Years, In The Summer Of 1989. During His Hiatus As A Recording Artist, Rundgren Became Fascinated With Recording Live Music, Deciding To Record Nearly Human Live In The Studio. The Production Style Complements The Soul-Inflected Songs. Song For Song, Nearly Human Is His Best Record Since The Hermit Of Mink Hollow, Since Not Only Is The Bulk Of The Album Filled With Charging Blue-Eyed Soul Like "The Want Of A Nail" Or Sweet Ballads Like "Parallel Lines," But Because There Are No Novelties And The Cover Choice (Elvis Costello's "Two Little Hitlers") Is Fresh And Surprising. Nearly Human Finds Rundgren At The Top Of His Game As A Performer, Producer And Songwriter, Sustaining His Momentum In A Way He Hadn't For Nearly A Full Decade." Thomas Erlewine, AMG.
