I'm a Todd-head myself. I own the following:

Something/Anything
A Wizard, A True Star
Todd
Hermit of Mink Hollow


I'm more into his pop stuff, so his prog-riddled Initiation and Utopia experiments aren't my cup of tea.

And for the record: A Wizard, A True Star is my favorite album, topping Abbey Road. It has everything I love: songs that run into each other, convoluted production, a medley, Zappa-esque humor... The fact that the first side is freaking schizophrenic is also a plus, in my book.

Todd's talents are gold, and far reaching across the spectrum of music, I immensely enjoy his recorded works, yet I have a time of it visually. His (some would say edgy) feathers and stuff leave me aloof, Bowie be damned. :)

Sunset Boulevard/International Feel - Utopia

Gotta love that warm late-70s sound, before disco and New Wave made it sound like a eunuch...
