I can perhaps see why Meat wanted to make the next record with his hardworking touring band when you hear stuff like that.
I can see how Rundgren always comes to his "spoof of Bruce Springsteen" argument but at the same time I think diminishing the songs only down to that is a bit unfair. It's perhaps a bit weird for the original producer not to get more excited about the music in a more dramatic / poetic fashion in this case I'd say. It has more qualities than just being a spoof surely.
