Rodriguez -- Searching For Sugar Man

  A heavily underrated, mega talented and almost completely lost singer/ songwriter, who has finally gotten the kudos he's deserved 40 years later thanks to the academy award winning documentary Searching For Sugar Man.  Was Rodriguez like Nick Drake, missing the folk boat by a couple years, his blend of Bob Dylan meets Leonard Cohen who hangs out with Donovan was a year or two too late, but brilliant nonetheless, one of the tunes even forced out a couple crocodile tears out of my eye ducts, which in itself says it all ... not every great song writer can make you cry!
