Wizard a True Star and the double Todd album are great too.
and Initiation and some early Utopia..... Lots of great material.
(He used Mellotron Flutes a fair bit)
Not always High Fidelity recordings, but great material none the less.
John Lennon called him "Turd Rundgren" and the name stuck.
He produced a lot of other artist's recordings over the years.
Some were a good match (Meatloaf)..... Some were a mismatch...
Hall and Oates, Psychedelic Furs)
I recall reading that Gabriel was considering "Turd" for his 1st album.
That would have been weird. Maybe not?

classify that production as a turd. He can be an a-hole but he is a very
