Greetings Audio Toddheads! Warren H. (Atlanta, GA. USA) here. Tony Rogers and I have transferred our entire audio collections over to my home in 2008. We (Tony & I) thought my circumstances (A 62 year old, single, IT specialist/Audio Editor guy in Atlanta with lots of Todd Rundgren history/archival collecting since 1972) would be ideal for taking over the 'Library' in all its glory. And, so an 'incorporation' of his and my colossal collections takes place! I now curate this ‘museum’. And I plan to share much of this, just as Tony did all these decades. And yes, I’m somewhat of a Todd Rundgren Historian. I have been 'following' Todd extensively (in all forms of media) ever since I saw (and met) him here at an Historic Show at Atlanta’s Fabulous Fox Theatre on November 8 1973. So I know 'enough'. Please note that I say share my enthusiasm. No buying or selling. Nor will a penny exchange hands. Never.
I want to say a big THANK YOU in advance to all of you who are going to help and have helped with this so far. I’ll do my best. Write me anytime. twarrenh@gmail.com
Just scroll down to the items listed below by period and click on any year to browse the collection.
We've also recently been working in collaboration with my friend Frank Bubnick and his well known vast quality collection (you can visit his list by clicking on his name). Some of his editing is unequaled anywhere.
And some late breaking neat news : I believe most of you are familiar with the JEMS group. A bunch of super collectors for many bands’ audience recordings (predominate though are Yes and Springsteen). Well known for their re-mastering prowess and quality. They’ve been in contact with me for a couple of years, and in December of last year offered me all their (originals) Todd Rundgren Collection. They just didn’t have the resources or the time for refining anything by Todd Rundgren. It just wasn’t on their timeline. I received all their cassettes (60) within a few weeks! Most of them are MASTER tapes from the original Taper. They will be sending me all their DATs and Reels at a later date. I will be listing all these recordings here, as I digitally transfer them. With this addition of the JEMS collection I believe these Todd Rundgren Archives are easily the largest collection on the planet.
How do we share you ask? Well, Just for what it's worth, we really don't do the 'snail mail trading' (by postal) much these days. So, if you would like me to share or trade any of this 'Catalog' with you, it would be more convenient/easiest to share in the form of on-line file transfer. Generally, in .flac format, compressed to .zip or .rar for smoother/faster quality exchange [depending upon the size of the audio file(s) we might be exchanging of course]. Hope that all makes sense. I can work with you on 'all that'. Again, write me, and then we'll come to an agreement of sorts. Please keep in mind, that anything that is 'Official', or 'Professionally Marketed', or still available for 'Retail' purchase is not of consideration. Nor is there any monetary means of transaction.
I do not have any rights to, and I am not open for sharing any material that may be listed below that has been commercially or officially released and is still available retail. (It may be listed below for collection listing purpose only). I do not take or give any money for a single item below either. I do not take away any proceeds that are due to Todd Rundgren, family, friends, business or supporting/associated musicians. If it is ROIO (recording of independent origin), then I'm open to share. Support the artist! Go buy his stuff where and whenever available! Speaking of which; an ultimate place to find/buy Todd's releases and imports & rarities is TRBAZAAR. Check it out! If Scott ain't got it, nobody does...just about! And of course many past official CD/DVD releases and proprietary Todd merchandise is readily available for ordering on-line at The Toddstore. So check them out for sure.
I like to give credit where credit is due too. So please forgive me if I do not credit the right persons involved in making these recordings available/possible for all these years.
I’ll start a ‘Credits’ list here below, and maintain it on down the road. Like to make sure all the folks involved are appreciated. For now, let me go ahead and thank some folks that have really been instrumental in these archives (no particular order): Tony Rogers (of course), Mike Armes, Jeff Gauss 'Weavil' (RIP), Frank Bubnick, Paul Russo, Hiroshi Kawauchi, Istvan Berzenczei, Sara Kritzer, Barry Beiseigel, Marc Linowitz, Rob 'Lockjaw' Levangie, Roger Steel, Mike Adrian, Gil Ireland-Ashley, Jim Farrell, Dale Michelsohn, Gary Urwin, Don B., Bob Stanislowski (RIP), Micheal B., Jon Risen, Jon Babcock, Mark Wilpolt, Tom Cannon, Lin Sprague, Joe Franks, Chris 'Razz', Geoff (& Rick) Laurenzo, Ted Moon, Richard Roys, Storm Hunter, Moz (Mike), Sohta Fujito, David Skye, Allen Law, Matt Walsh, Kevin Lewis, Doug Ford, Dave Knife, JEMS, Jared Houser, Gene Poole, 'Elegymart', Gail Artsgard, Victor Baissait, Connor Payne and players to be named later. Special thanks to Roger Linder for providing this page space for us for decades. Let's Rock!
BTW, I call this group of people 'My Cartel'. However, I have given the group a Media name: F451 Media (as in 451 Farenheit). It is not a brand name, for nothing of mine is for sale or has been sold EVER. It is a logo for these dedicated Todd Rundgren Collectors , which most of been doing this since the early 90s (and even earler). Our logo is:

I LOVE MY LIFE Note:A top shelf sounding rehearsals for the Nearly Human tour...there is little joking around here...they were getting to the arrangements. Todd runs 'em through the paces on some..working out transitions, dynamics, etc...when you think about it, these are the FIRST ever playings of this stuff besides the recordings - they did have the Fillmore gig in Spring, but Hawking, etc..they work on the swell...it will kill you..Hawking has some devastating moments in it...Secret Society is too fast and you wonder why they would pick such tunes given the ensemble...Want of A Nail seems to sound more off the cuff than the others...the focus of this rehearsal was the vocals, but you can tell there are points still being polished. Thanks to Gil Ireland-Ashley for my copy! ~ Tony |

The radio show may even contain parts of both shows. Produced by Lynssey Guerrero Production and engineering by Ray Hubbes Cline and Michael Jordan Mobile recording engineer: Dale Peters Concert material mixed by Todd Rundgren Executive producer Norm Paddiz 'propylaen2001' (Traders Den) notes: THE ANNOUNCER: Steve Downes, American disc jockey and voice actor...famous as the voice of MASTER CHIEF Petty Officer John-117 in the video game HALO. THE COMMERCIALS: Hey! That's Toots & the Maytals doing a Budweiser commercial! What a voice! THE VENUE: While announcer Steve Downes calls it "the Ritz in New York," this was recorded at the NEW RITZ, at 254 West 54th Street, New York City...the former site of STUDIO 54, the famous 1970's disco. The Ritz was at 119 East 11th Street from 1980 to April 1989...three miles away from where this was recorded. The revamped New Ritz opened on April 6, 1989, with a show by the Radiators. Capacity was about 3,000 seated and standing, roughly double that of the old Ritz. THE RECORDING CREDITS: First of all, Todd Rundgren actually mixed the show. It's unusual for an artist to mix their own syndicated concert. But take note of the recording engineer for Westwood One! It was DALE PETERS, from the James Gang! I found this about him out on the internet: "Dale is not only a musician, but a longtime recording engineer and at one time was Director of Remote Recording for Westwood One Network. Dale has engineered over 100 recordings and has done over 350 live recordings for artists such as Aerosmith, R.E.M., CSN, U2, The Police, Todd Rundgren, John Mellencamp, Jimmy Page, Don Henley, Neil Young, Roger Waters, Bon Jovi, Motley Crue, Tom Petty, Bob Dylan, Madonna, Peter Gabriel and Ozzie Osbourne. He was the recording and mixing engineer for the live television coverage for the Amnesty International Festival, Farm Aid; (1985-1990) and the Moscow Music Peace Festival; the first live satellite broadcast ever to originate from the Soviet Union. He also co-engineered Van Halen'sLive Without A Net; music video, the best selling long form music video at that time. Dale either recorded or mixed many of MTV's Unplugged concerts, and all of their Spring Break concerts during a five year period, and he recorded and mixed Madonna first live worldwide broadcast via satellite from the Orange Bowl." Dale has been awarded many gold records, an AMPEX Golden Reel Award and a Society for Communicating Arts Award for audio work performed throughout the country. He was awarded a Grammy Certificate for engineering the #1 Grammy winning song "Let It Whip" from The Dazz Band album "Keep It Live." Dale continues to play bass with the James Gang and is still writing, producing, sharing his knowledge and recording songs with other artists now at his own studio." |

CAN WE STILL BE FRIENDS/MATED(fades). CD TWO: THE WAITING GAME. LOVE IN ACTION. ROCK LOVE. HAWKING. WANT OF A NAIL. HELLO ITS ME. I LOVE MY LIFE. Note:Another brilliant soundboard. Being they were on the fourth to last show of the tour, AND in Atlanta,the band is note perfect here. And lots of fun spots in here. Sadly, 'Mated' is faded out half way thru it. They had just added 'Waiting Game' to the set a couple of days before. Todd is incredible on his solo acoustic numbers. He call it the 'Ritchie Havens Part' because of the 20th year anniversary of Woodstock. A very 'bluesy' Hello It's Me'. This, will all the other above soundboards are ESSENTIAL to have in your collection~ Warren |
