Notes et avis

I've been listening to Rodriguez since I discovered Sugar Man on an old vinyl I found at a garage sale when I was 11 (20 years ago). If it werent for that, I would have thought this whole situation to be a hoax. Already own the physical DVD, so I wont pay for it via Google. Great film.

what a great story..you'll love it ..you've never seen anything like it you won't be able to guess as your watching it neither. That part blows my mind. Enjoy!

After watching this fairly unique documentary that doesn't treat the audience like a 4 year-old, I was sold. I bought both albums and have thus far enjoyed them immensely. Watch this film if you are a fan of music.
