Originally Sparks were known as Halfnelson, formed in Los Angeles by brother Russell and Ron Mael. Their initial demo tapes got to the attention of Todd Rundgren who was making records for Bearsville Records and he was so intrigued with the band, as their sound was like nothing being offered then or even now. It wasn't the very first band I discovered, but it was the most unusual thing I ever discovered. Initially released in 1971 as their self-titled debut Halfnelson, the LP was one of the more alternative offerings that year by any standard, and it received some underground radio and college radio support, as tunes like Roger and Wonder Girl would become early favorites for their growing fan base. Produced by Todd Rundgren and Mastered impeccably by Joe Reagoso (Sparks/Todd Rundgren/David Bowie) from the original Bearsville Records tapes, the Halfnelson album will become a much long sought after revisit for old and new fans alike.
