With the release of 1972's Something/Anything?, Todd Rundgren established himself as a major force in the music business. Subsequent albums showed that Rundgren could not be happy merely churning out pop tunes and love songs, and each album he releases is nothing like anything else he's ever done.

As a video pioneer (his Time Heals video was the second-ever video played on MTV in 1981), Todd has always been at the forefront of what's new and cool in visual productions. This collection shows some of his award-winning techniques in computer animation, coupled with musical styles from rock to hip-hop metal. With the advent of desktop publishing and graphic design, Rundgren is able to merge the creativity of his craft with mind-blowing animation effects.

You won't get hits or stage performances with this video, but you will get state-of-the-art animated productions of some of Todd's best works - lyrically, musically and visually. This video, released in 1993, still seems current, even in these times when technology becomes obsolete quickly. Catch it while you can, because Rundgren won't stand still.
