I've been listening to a lot of Todd Rundgren recently and I already have a great connection pick of his production work that I called Rundgren Productions. Check it out. This one is a little different, although he did produce some of these songs or albums that they came from. On this pick he had to have played an instrument or sang on the recording. So for some that was easy since he was officially a band member in Nazz, Utopia and The New Cars. So he probably did both. Some he just played guitar (think Meat Loaf and the guitar that sounds like a motorcycle). Or drums and voice like the Ringo Starr All Starr Band. All sorts of combinations. No one is sure how many on the Jules Shear because it leaves it open. The duets, we know he sang. So look it up if you really want to know. I kept some of the "With's" for another playlist of covers because he also has some great covers. It's coming somewhat soon.

I did not know that Flappie was a cover, but I didn't include it because it is also a Xmas song.
DeleteSome christmas tunes are also just tunes. I would not include this one because I don't like it. Too familiar with the original.
