Another "Evening with Todd Rundgren..." at Kent Stage and highlight of his Nearly Human/Second Wind tours in the early 1990's. Still a fan favorite this soul medley of "I'm So Proud"-"Ooh Baby Baby" and "I Want You" was attended by hundreds of Todd and Rundgren Radio fans the night after Todd performed his orchestrated compositions at the Akron Civic, Akron, Ohio.
