(1997)"With a Twist" is a 1997
album byTodd Rundgren . Asked to produce an album of new versions of his older singles, Rundgren decided to record the songs inBossa nova style with elements ofExotica , complete with tropical bird call effects at the beginning of "Hello, It's Me" similar toMartin Denny 's recording "Quiet Village". Continuing the theme, Rundgren toured theaters with a replica of atiki bar, the performers on a very small stage with selected audience members being seated at tables also on the theater stage, and being served drinks by the monitor engineer/bartender. The performers never acknowledged the larger theater audience, and the show ended when the last "bar patron" left the stage.Track listing
