After a thirty-year-plus hiatus, Todd Rundgren's Utopia graced the Chicago Theater stage, with the hopes of promising fans an extraordinary, other-worldly concert experience. In the 1990s Todd retired Utopia and reverted to making his own music, with varying degrees of success, and then last year came the announcement of the long-awaited U.S. reunion tour, where the album in review here originates. Recorded in Chicago on 22nd May 2018, the music reflects a run through many of the finer moments of the Utopia back catalogue. Todd is joined by fellow original members Willie Wilcox (drums) and Kasim Sultan (bass), alongside replacement keyboard player Gil Assayas who covered at short notice for an indisposed Ralph Shuckett. The original 70's-formed band established a stellar reputation for stretching the prog rock/pop.

This video features experimental rockers Utopia performing live in Boston in 1982. Todd Rundgren, Kasim Sulton, Roger Powell and Willie Wilcox show off the group's unique blend of progressive rock, electronica and new wave that made them standouts in the 1970s and '80s. The band performs more than 23 classics, including "Libertine," "Feet Don't Fail Me Now" and "Hammer in My Heart." A documentary features interviews with each band member.

Todd Rundgren founded Utopia in order to play prog-rock, but the band became a more mainstream rock group as the '70s progressed. This DVD captures them performing before an avid crowd in Columbus, Ohio on a 19890 tour. The band plays over two-dozen songs over the course of the show including "Hello It's Me," "Love In Action," "Set Me Free," and "Love Is the Answer."

Founded by Todd Rundgren, the 1970s progressive-rock band Utopia reunited in 1992 for a concert at Tokyo's Gotanda Kani Hoken Hall. The group performs 11 hits, including "Fix Your Gaze," "Love in Action," "Princess of the Universe," "Back on the Street," "Just One Victory," "Love Is the Answer" and "Caravan." Front-man Rundgren shares the spotlight with bass player Kasim Sultan, drummer Willie Wilcox and keyboardist Roger Powell.
