Healing Live At The Mayo Center For The Performing Arts, Morristown, N.J. September 14, 2010 Todd Rundgren Kasim Sulton Jesse Gress Prarie Prince Bobby Strickland Greg Hawkes Barbara Ingram School for the Arts Choir
I hadn’t heard this in maybe a year or longer and when I stumbled across it here, I had the same reaction as you- and when the album was new years ago, I practically wore it out listening to it.
This is my all time favorite Todd album. It has spurred on many a conversational session with my friend who was an atheist in his high school days. Later in life through his education, life's hard knox and mathematics, my friend finally "saw the light" as it were!!!! I always thought it as the story of Christ and all our day to day struggle to be better humans on this big blue marble!
Actually it's part 2, here's why, Todd released it in 3 parts, while editing for posting I found I could condense the 3 parts into 2, but pretty observant of You...THX
Thanks for taking the time to do that, Mr. Runt... well worth it to see you play guitar here. And great band- loved it when you could steal Prairie away from the Tubies.
I was lucky enuf to meet and talk to Todd(I did most of the talking.haha)after a cheap trick concert,right aroung the time of this album.i remembered I asked him if this album had anything to do w/ the death of John Lennon,and he said no..
Well I'll share my experiences seeing Todd. It was in Miami he told us his wife had fallen down the stairs. And then I was somehow in therapy with Todd looking at my narcissistic husband and asking why you with him? Lol
I did not go to this concert, but don't think it ever came to the west coast. I will say that it is the TR concert that I didn't see that I most wish I did see. I listened to this album quite a bit after it came out. This live version is so much more "alive" than the record vsn it's ridiculous.
HR d - thanks for this and all the other TR postings you do. Much appreciated! Healing I, II, III is one of my favorite pieces to really listen to. Being able to see it again is all the more special. And wow, Bobby can really tickle those reeds...so much fun to see and hear him also!
