#ToddRundgren steps in and produces and engineered his first (of 2) LP(s) for The Tubes, forever expanding and changing the sound of the band. This is my OG copy bought with 15 year old allowance money 🤘🏼😎 #nowplaying #TheTubes #RemoteControl #1979 #AandMRecords #vinyl #vinylrules #vinyligclub #vinylcommunity #vinylhoarder #nowspinning #onmyturntable #MichaelCotten #RogerSteen #RickAnderson #ReStyles #PrairiePrince #VinceWelnick #BillSpooner #FeeWaybill

In the studio yesterday cutting tracks for my forthcoming album - Prairie Prince, John Conte, Stevie Van Zandt & Yours Truly. We’ve recorded 5 of the 8 songs I’ve written with Andy Partridge of XTC ! It will come out sometime in 2023 on Little Steven’s label - Wicked Cool Records. (Prairie fired up the “Earn Enough For Us” snare drum on the songs and it sounds amazing…recorded at Little Steven Van Zandt’s Renegade Studios.) #prairieprince #thetubes #xtc #skylarking #toddrundgren #thenewcars #artist #littlesteven #stevievanzandt #wickedcoolrecords #undergroundgarage #steveconte #johnconte (at New York, New York) https://www.instagram.com/p/CmHUspMO3NZ/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

This is it - the 1929 brass Ludwig snare used on the XTC album Skylarking!! And it’s going on my record today, hit by the man who played it on that record…the pictured, Prairie Prince! #prairieprince #thetubes #xtc #skylarking #toddrundgren #thenewcars #artist #littlesteven #stevievanzandt #wickedcoolrecords #undergroundgarage (at New York, New York) https://www.instagram.com/p/CmExb5SuLwE/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Today: This man has flown in from San Fransisco to record with me! Besides being the drummer in The Tubes, Prairie played on XTC’s Skylarking album so I couldn’t imagine a better drummer to play on these songs I’ve written with Andy Partridge. He’s even brought the “Earn Enough For Us” snare drum! Session starts at 10am in Little Steven Van Zandt’s Renegade Studios with brother John on bass. I’m Psyched! #prairieprince #thetubes #xtc #skylarking #toddrundgren #thenewcars #artist #littlesteven #stevievanzandt #wickedcoolrecords #undergroundgarage (at New York, New York) https://www.instagram.com/p/CmEOUiJuavr/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Remote Control is the fifth album released by the Tubes. This was their first to be produced by Todd Rundgren (the other being 1985's Love Bomb). It is a concept album about a television-addicted idiot savant. Originally released in 1979, this is on A&M Records - SP-3242. Producer #toddrundgren suggested that the next work be a concept album. Lead singer #feewaybill sketched out a storyline based on his favorite book, Being There by Jerzy Kosinski. "It wasn't an original concept," he admits, but "I tried to make it more contemporary." Rundgren encouraged the musical adaptation, and thrust himself into the project, as was his style: "Every song has so much of him," marveled #prairieprince #rockandroll #70s #thetubes #aandmrecords #vincewelnick https://www.instagram.com/p/CIdqE3RLa7X/?igshid=wxi08znirkt0
