Todd Rundgren Drives The New Cars

The New CarsTodd Rundgren celebrates a birthday today. Born June 22,1948, Todd was influenced by the early R&B sounds of Philly radio, and was playing guitar by ear by the time he was in high school.

His lengthy and amazing career has been covered in-depth by his cult-like fans, so instead of boring you with TRivia, I'll just list out a few tasty sites that delve into the details.

Wikipedia has a nice biography

The Todd Rundgren Connection

Official website

Always inventive, Todd Rundgren has joined up with former members of The Cars. The band, under the name of The New Cars, has released a new album. A national tour, dubbed the Road Rage Tour, started off with Blondie, but shows have been either cancelled or postphoned because Cars guitarist Elliott Easton is out with a broken clavicle.
