Description

Offered for sale is an original U.S. pressing of Runt: The Ballad of Todd Rundgren by Todd Rundgren.

About this copy: This copy of Runt: The Ballad of Todd Rundgren is a 1971 U.S. pressing on the Bearsville label.

The cover is VG with quite a bit of general wear, as is common for this title.

The disc is VG on side one with a few light scuffs but no deep scratches.  Side two is VG+ with a few sleeve scuffs, but no significant marks.

A nice play copy of an album that’s surprisingly hard to find as an original pressing.

Background: Released in 1971, Runt: The Ballad of Todd Rundgren was the second solo album by Todd Rundgren.

The album peaked at #214 on the U.S. album chart.

Allmusic.com gave Runt: The Ballad of Todd Rundgren a 5 star review:

Upon its release, Rolling Stone called The Ballad of Todd Rundgren “the best album Paul McCartney” never made, and even if the album doesn’t sound particularly McCartney-esque, it does share the homespun, melodic charm of the best of his early albums. Arguably, it’s better than Paul’s solo work, since it is focused and subtle, never drawing attention to Rundgren’s considerable skills as a writer and producer. …. And that’s the charm of The Ballad — it’s the slyly sardonic masterwork of a loner who may be sensitive, but is certainly not shy.
