Oblivion

Digitally remastered and expanded disc (CD + NTSC/Region 0 DVD) edition of this 1983 album from Todd Rundgren and Utopia including a bonus DVD that contains the concert film Live At The Royal Oak, Detroit filmed in 1981. The album Oblivion saw Rundgren, Kasim Sulton, Roger Powell and Willie Wilcox strike out on their own, funding the recording themselves and in the process producing an album of startling originality. Featuring such classic tracks as 'Itch In My Brain', 'Cry Baby', 'Love With A Thinker' and 'Winston Smith Takes It On The Jaw', Oblivion was one of Utopia's finest later albums. The concert video was shot in Detroit towards the end of Utopia's tenure with Bearsville Records and saw the band in fine form. Includes superb renditions of Utopia classics such as 'One World', 'Caravan', 'Love In Action' and 'Lysistrada'. Esoteric.
