Says "Spring 2016" on Amazon, does anyone have a more specific date?

Been a BIG Meat Loaf fan since I pinched the copy of Bat out of hell 2 that my Uncle bought Dad for Christmas in 1993, and then bought my own copy, I have all his albums now.

His tour of the USA starts in March. So I would think he would be selling before then or during.

I quite like Meatloaf.

There's been a TV documentary on the making of this album shown on BBC4 a few times. It recounts the problem that Jim Steinman had getting his "Bat Out of Hell," album off the ground, before Todd Rundgren, got involved.

It amused me that Jim wanted the sound of a motorcycle on the recording of "Bat." so Todd produced it on his guitar.

I've been admirer, of Todd Rundgren for decades, I bought his "Something/Anything" double album when it came out, on which he played all the instruments and sang all the vocal parts.

Hmm, I thought after his health scare a few years back he said he wasn't touring any more?

Meat Loaf has type 2 diabetes doesn't he? Same here, I thought he was finished with touring, but would become essentially a studio artist. Perhaps, it only applies outside of North America. He really loves the UK too.

A number of times (if I have got my facts right here) though when he was doing live shows he would collapse on stage and then somehow manage to compose himself and finish the show.

Last time was billed as the "Last At Bat" tour which could reasonably be taken as meaning the final tour so I'm another who's a litle surprised to see him touring again.
