Recorded in 1978, this live album offers a focused listening experience where Rundgren navigates songs like \"Love Of The Common Man\" and \"I Saw The Light\" with a small ensemble that brings a fresh, direct energy to the stage. It's an engaging snapshot that slots neatly alongside the work of contemporaries like Steely Dan and Fleetwood Mac, appealing to those who appreciate finely crafted songwriting with a personal touch. This 1978 pressing on Bearsville Records comes on vinyl in very good plus condition, showing only minor surface marks and light scuffs that don’t detract from playback. The glossy finish suggests careful handling, making it a solid choice for anyone looking to add a live Todd Rundgren performance to their collection without fuss. If you’ve ever wondered how an artist known for studio polish sounds when stripped down, this album serves as a reminder that even in a quieter setting, Rundgren’s songs carry a compelling charge—proof that sometimes going back to the bars means stepping forward in sound.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003csection data-track-listing=\"true\"\u003e\u003ch3\u003eTrack listing \u0026amp; samples\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTodd Rundgren - Back To The Bars\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eSide A\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReal Man\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLove Of The Common Man\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Verb \"To Love\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLove In Action\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA Dream Goes On Forever\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eSide B\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSometimes I Don't Know What To Feel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Range War\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBlack And White\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Last Ride\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCliché\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDon't You Ever Learn?\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eSide C\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNever Never Land\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBlack Maria\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eZen Archer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eI'm So Proud\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOh Baby Baby\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLa La Means I Love You\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eI Saw The Light\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eSide D\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIt Wouldn't Have Made Any Difference\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEastern Intrigue\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInitiation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCouldn't I Just Tell You\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHello It's Me\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"sample-embeds\"\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"sample-embed\"\u003e\u003ciframe src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/whdKOJWlT3s\" allowfullscreen loading=\"lazy\" style=\"width:100%;min-height:152px;border:0;border-radius:12px;\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/section\u003e","brand":"Den Vinyl","offers":[{"title":"VG++ \/ VG+ \/ 1978","offer_id":54386840371516,"sku":"DEN00000480","price":14.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0694\/9932\/2684\/files\/MjQtOTE0Ny5qcGVn.jpg?v=1789253856","url":"https:\/\/shoptheden.com\/products\/todd-rundgren-back-to-the-bars-lp-091226","provider":"The Den New Hope PA","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
