The tour to support his "White Knight" album was a multimedia extravaganza, and the early dates included what Rundgren called a video "sandwich" that band members performed behind while Rundgren and The Global Girls performed up front. In this interview Todd discusses the origins of the album title, the passing of his mother Ruth, working with his son, and discusses the prospects of Utopia going out on the road without Todd Rundgren (a timely topic as Kasim Sulton gears up to do some shows billed as Kasim Sulton's Utopia).

The actor turned musician, or the other way around, was a teen sensation at a very early age thanks in part to his famous father Jack Cassidy. At the height of his popularity David was headlining stadiums and hockey arenas and created a fervor not unlike The Beatles. Shortly after a young fan was crushed to death at one of his concerts he gave up touring for decades. Over the last few years of his life David became fodder for tabloid journalists, but his loyal fan base still supported him and his music. David toured as long as he could, eventually succumbing to complications related to dementia, an illness that took his beloved mother from him in 2012. In this interview we focused on his music and his mother. In retrospect, David sang some incredible songs, and he was an engaging live performer. He thrived in smaller venues and his smile was infectious. Just as he seemed to be enjoying life as a musician he was unable to perform.

In 1982 Asia's debut album was a surprise hit for Geffen Records, and introduced a leaner form of progressive rock that appealed to the masses. Success came with the usual challenges, and the group soon splintered like many prog rock bands, with various incarnations of the band in existence through 2006. It was in 2006 that the original lineup of Wetton, Steve Howe, Carl Palmer and Geoff Downes were finally able to reunite for a tour and subsequently recorded and released three new albums from 2008-2012, more than the two during thier first run.
