Edsel's double-disc set rounds up three of Todd Rundgren's best mid-period albums: 1978's The Hermit of Mink Hollow, Healing, and 1982's The Ever Popular Tortured Artist Effect. Although Healing does contain the bonus 7" "Time Heals"/"Tiny Demons," there are no bonus tracks here, but there are liner notes by Paul Myers and the lyrics to Healing, published for the first time ever; the albums are also remastered.
