Like he was abducted by aliens and then suddenly returned to us, Rodriguez sings songs plucked from the seventies and delivers them unchanged to a contemporary audience of new found fans. The Academy Award winning Searching For Sugar Man documentary that brought this new found attention to Rodriguez was directed by Malik Bendjelloul who comitted suicide here in Sweden on the 13th May. Please spare a thought for him and his family and friends through this tragic event. The wonderful story of Sixto Rodriguez remains.
