About This Release
Todd devotes an entire side of this album to cover versions of '60s pop classics that "faithfully" replicate both the performance and the production of the original recordings. The other half stands as one of the finest sequences of Rundgren originals ever committed to disc!

Reviews
''Faithful'' is Todd Rundgren's seventh album, released in 1976. The first side of the LP is dedicated to "faithful" re-recordings, meaning treatments approaching near-replications of the originals, of some classic 1960s psychedelic-era songs, while side two comprises original material.
Rundgren explained the motivation of the first side as treating rock music like European classical music, where a piece is performed over and over again in essentially the same way. Critics generally hailed the latter half of the album as a comeback for Rundgren as a pop songwriter . - Wikipedia
