On Feb. 10, I posed the following trivia question:

   "Name the pop music personality who covered this tune (Love, Unrequited;
   the Lord Chancellor's Nightmare Song) in a 1973 eponymous album."

The answer is Todd Rundgren, on the album entitled, "Todd." This is
Gilbert and Sullivan on acid.  The D'Oyly Carte pianist brought a classical
musicality to this that made me admire both Sir Arthur Sullivan and Todd
Rundgren.
