Brand New Factory Sealed: Todd Rundgren - A Cappella Vintage Vinyl LP - 1984 Original US First Pressing - Warner Bros. Records 9 25128-1 (With Vintage Price Sticker)Up for sale is a spectacular, investment-grade piece of 1980s avant-garde rock and pop history: an authentic 1985 original first-pressing vinyl LP of \"A Cappella,\" the iconic studio masterpiece written, performed, and engineered entirely by multi-instrumentalist pioneer Todd Rundgren. Released on Warner Bros. Records, this dynamic, high-potency production stands as a landmark creative achievement where absolutely every sound heard—including the drum textures, bass beats, and horn flourishes—was generated exclusively by overdubbing and electronically manipulating the sound of his own voice through an early E-mu Emulator sampler.This brilliant release is heavily revered by physical media historians and electronic music enthusiasts alike for its lush vocal layers and complex spatial sonic soundstage. The track listing spans his definitive, beautiful pop-rock anthems and soul-stirring deep cuts like \"Blue Orpheus,\" \"Johnee Jingo,\" and \"Pretending To Care,\" along with an unforgettable vocal arrangement of the classic track \"Mighty Love.\" The clean back cover layout features a stark close-up portrait of Rundgren resting against a studio microphone apparatus.This specific copy has spent over four decades completely unplayed, remaining 100% factory sealed in its tight original shrink-wrap wrapper. The cardboard retail sleeve stays completely rigid, square, and flat with razor-sharp corner boundaries, clean perimeter seams, and a flawless graphic canvas. As an awesome bonus for retro music historians and display collectors, the front cover perfectly preserves an original small white vintage record store price label sticker safely tucked beneath the factory shrink-wrap layer on the upper center panel. This represents the ultimate preservation piece for any serious collection, ensuring a completely unblemished analog playing surface with zero background needle hiss or storage scuffing.Complete Album Track Listing:
