Where this album fits

Career context
By the time 'Healing' was released in January 1981, Todd Rundgren had already established himself as a multifaceted artist with a rich catalog, including his acclaimed 1972 album 'Something/Anything?'. This album marked a shift towards more conceptual artistry for Rundgren as he explored themes of personal and collective healing, following a period of commercial experimentation and artistic freedom in the late 1970s.
