Under The RadarMay 12, 2015This is 39 minutes of three musical visionaries spreading their wings and breaking down barriers. [Apr-May 2015, p.86]

May 11, 2015The vibe is more often trippy and transcendental than indulgent, whereas even the most far-out moments fail to disguise Rundgren’s pop nous, most evident in the synth rushes of Put Your Arms Around Me and the electrifying soloing that follows it.
