Film : Searching for Sugar Man at TFF

Apr 26, 12:50pm My Old Kentucky Blog
The artist known as Rodriguez sold a half million albums in South Africa, so it's no surprise some call him the "South African Elvis." American music industry veterans put him on par with the likes of Bob Dylan as one of the greatest songwriters at the dawn of the 1970s. Meanwhile his folk rock music went largely snubbed by Americans at the time of its release. Despite his mega-fame in South Africa, the fans there knew little about him. After his second album release, his quick disappearance fueled wild rumors. By most accounts, he committed suicide on [...]

Someday Soon I Know, We'll All Have To Go

Aug 9, 2011, 3:08pm The Gentlebear
Someday Soon I Know, We'll All Have To Go "Dreaming Casually" by Thee Midniters slows me down in a good way. This song starts off all a-shimmer and just slinks its way into your brain. It's smooth, warm, like a piece of polished obsidian. Thee Midniters came out of East L.A. and are considered the first "chicano rock" band. They had a couple of hits. but like many other chicano acts that were uneasily categorized, they never hit it super big. I was listening recently to an interview with Sixto Rodriguez (I'm currently obsessed with [...]

Rodriguez at the Triple Door

Jun 25, 2009, 10:15pm Sound On The Sound
Rodriguez ::: Photo by Abbey Simmons In recent years, the mantle of urban philosophy has been held aloft by the hip-hop generation, reflecting the turmoil of forgotten and ill-served neighborhoods where hustling was a way of life. In the decade before "Rapper's Delight" began making waves, Detroit's Sixto Diaz Rodriguez, known to most as simply Rodriguez, [...]

Rodriguez - "Sugar Man"

Jun 11, 2009, 8:00am the bomarr blog
Rodriguez - "Sugar Man" rodriguez - "sugar man" (download) I wanted to post something different from this record, because " Sugar Man " is definitely the most blogged and talked about track of his, but it's really a great introduction to his music. Cold Fact was originally released in 1970, to very little acclaim. The label he was on folded, and after not gaining a whole lot of commercial success, he decided to give up music. Years later, in 2002, DJ David Holmes featured "Sugar Man" on his DJ Mix Come Get [...]

We just had a near-life experience fellas.. And we're back- I meant to post this tune up before the Easter break, think I made the same tenuous link last year. Any excuse to post the 13th Floor Elevators , from 'Easter Everywhere' here's 'Nobody to Love'. 13th Floor Elevators- Nobody to Love (Download) If you've got some spare dollars, head on over to Boomkat & pick up a couple of excellent albums that have just been made available digitally for the first time.

Animal Collective grooves the masses (1/22)

Jan 24, 2009, 11:45am Consequence Of Sound
Animal Collective grooves the masses (1/22) Looking around the Metro, geeked up for Animal Collective , I feared a war would break out at any moment. On one side, the high school hipsters, all glammed up for their night on the town, in from the burbs on the Metra. On the other, the unavoidable jam-bros, dudes who had a little smoke before coming to the show, pumped about the killer light show. But, as it typically does, the sound pumped out of Animal Collective's sound system united the factions, spreading peace, joy and a united Nation of Groove. Opener Sixto [...]

Rodriguez - Cold Fact (Light in the Attic, 2008)

Dec 11, 2008, 1:09pm Chewing Pine
Rodriguez - Cold Fact (Light in the Attic, 2008) (This originally appeared in Skyscraper ) There isn't one simple way to divide those artists that provide some similarity to Robert Zimmerman into a good and bad category while explaining why each effort has been relegated to either column. Everyone has an opinion on the Minnesotan turned counter-culture icon: he's a good writer, bad at singing, has an interesting guitar style. But what litany can be used in order to gauge his talents and then aptly apply these criteria to other artists? Slightly psychedelic and occasionally forcing their poetic leanings, an ever abundant crop of [...]

TEN4SE7EN: Episode 05

Sep 22, 2008, 4:50am music like dirt
Music Like Dirt and I are away in Poland where Kraftwerk are playing in the splendour of an old steal-mill. Sounds like the perfect setting to me. Here are ten more tunes that've been tickling my taste buds over the past week. Ten more when I come back. 'Boy, Did She Teach You Nothing?' marks the return of one of my favourite bands, Absentee . As always Dan Michelson's devilishly deep vocals are brilliantly contrasted with catchy Pop-Rock with a hint of Bloc Party. [...]
