Description
ATTENTION COLLECTORS!

Check out this long-lost collection of unreleased Nazz studio recordings created by a burgeoning young songwriter/producer by the name of Todd Rundgren!

Taken directly from the original master acetates, this box set collects the originally conceived 1968 rough mix of Nazz's sophomore album "Nazz Nazz" created by Rundgren as he begins to learn the production techniques that made him the highly acclaimed producer he is today!

Also contains unreleased, alternate mixes from 1967-1968 of tracks such as "Hello, It's Me," "Open My Eyes" and many more not available anywhere else!

Includes a full-color booklet featuring liner notes and rare photos!

Q: How much Nazz is too much Nazz?
A: Silly question.

I've added the description and tracklist to the first post. Although not mentioned by name, the first two discs look to be the true, actual, original Fungo Bat double album acetates, which would make this release a must-have.

Enjoying this on a Sunday morning. The sound quality is variable due to the condition of the acetates, but the material is great and the booklet is a good read.
