That kind of disqualifies you from Top 40, in a way, because the songs are too long.īut also, I think music critics just got tired of listening to the jamming. They started out as a jam band, so they would come up with a little fragment of the song and then stretch it out really long. So they needed to do something that was, on one hand, more accessible to what they had been doing, and on the other hand, something that would break this cycle of critical disdain.Ī lot of it just had to do with the fact that they weren't writing the right kind of songs. In a Songfacts interview with Rundgren, he said: "They were already successful and they were already selling some records, but they weren't very successful on Top 40 radio and they were not very successful with the critics. They brought in Todd Rundgren to produce their albums We're An American Band (1973) and Shinin' On (1974).
