Rodriguez - Cold Fact

Awash with Psychedelic political folk songs the 1960’s saw Rodriguez drop through the crack in the floor of admiration.

Not doing things too differently to the likes of Bob Dylan, his first few albums flopped and he ended up working a string of jobs including at a petrol station and hard labour.

Now, 38 years on the album is being fished out of obscurity. Full of clever lyrics and catchy choruses the re-release is a long time in the making, after finding favour in the South Africa and then Australia in the 70s and 80s.

With a range of delectable songs, Cold Fact’s hippy overtones and zeitgeist of the 60s is nothing new, but if you’re tired of the computer age sounds of today, turn on, tune in and drop out.

Top Tracks: ‘Sugar Man’, ‘Jane S.Piddy’, ‘This Is Not A Song, It's An Outburst: Or, The Establishment Blues’
