Rodriguez will folk you up.
Live performances this decade by Sixto Rodriguez, the cult folk-rock figure from Detroit, are very rare. So it might behoove lovers of trenchant lyrics and raw, mind-bending folkadelia to tune in to Detroit public radio station WDET Friday at 8:25 am Pacific and check out how the creator of the classic Cold Fact LP (reissued in August by Seattle’s Light in the Attic Records) is holding up in the new millennium. A tight band consisting of Jim Diamond (Dirtbombs, White Stripes), Matthew Smith (the Go), Bobby Emmett (the Sights) and Dave Shettler (the Sights)
will back Rodriguez for this on-air action.

'cold fact' is a fucking amazing album. light in the attic are doing seattle and america a favor by carrying this domestically.
