History
"Hello It's Me" was the first song written by Todd Rundgren. Written in 1967 as a slow ballad about the breakup of a relationship, it was released in October 1968 as the B-side of his band Nazz's debut single "Open My Eyes", and included on the debut album Nazz (1968). Although released as a B-side, it was picked up in preference to the A-side by Boston radio station WMEX, where it rose to No. 1, and was subsequently picked up by other stations. It entered the Billboard chart in February 1969, peaking at number 71, and re-entered the charts the following January, this time peaking at number 66. In Canada, it ranked number 41 in March 1969, and number 58 in February 1970.
Rundgren recorded a more midtempo version of "Hello It's Me" for his 1972 solo album Something/Anything? It was released twice as a single, with the second issue in 1973 becoming Rundgren's only top ten pop hit, reaching No. 5 on the Hot 100. It also reached No. 17 on the Adult Contemporary chart.

Nice choice, Earl!
Seen Todd in 1982 in West Hartford. This was the only song I recognized by name when he rocked the Agora Ballroom.
Connecticut may have had some small venues like Toads place in New Haven or Shaboo
(The little dirt road off of highway 6... Elvin Bishop ) but Jim koplik and Shelly Finkel brought in some fine acts back in the day.
Hallelujah!
Thanks for the feedback and trip down memory lane! Have a great weekend! 🙏🏻👍🏻😎🤘🏻🤣
You make everything look so effortless and smooth. That is what I need to work on.
I love that ride and what you do with it, and those accent hits on the hats are cool. It seems that lately you have chosen songs that really show your skills on the throne.❤️👏🙏❤️👏🙏❤️

@@earldrum ok awesome,,,, thanks,,, 🙏 I’m going to check it out!!!!!!! You’re the greatest!!!!!!!
You are very kind! 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
@@earldrum no problem my pal
My wife loves Todd Rungrend,... that was great Earl!!! Question- I noticed that you set your snare at different heights sometimes. At times more flat, and lower, at times (like today) up bit and a bit angled ...reasons? Or, am I imagining things?😂
🥁👍😎🥁👍😎
Thanks for the feedback Jeff! You might be right my friend! It’s how a feel or my seat height are factors. I’ll explore this question on AEA in July! Thanks for watching! 🙏🏻😎👍🏻🤘🏻
@@earldrum interesting!!!😎👍🥁
@@metzilla my seats move down, then I raise them up, then I adjust the snare … I wish it was a science and I had it always dialed it, but I move so quickly I miss little things like putting the snare on the stand correctly!🤣🤣🤣🤣
