Records Reissues at Random, Vol. 71: Sixto Rodriguez Cold Fact
October 17, 2008 – 10:30 am
Early in the week I praised Tabacco and his group Black Moth Super Rainbow for the druggy, psychedelic quality of their music. This might seem odd coming from a person like myself who’s proud of the fact that they abstain from ingesting things like actual tobacco, in both it’s traditional and “wacky” varieties, and […]
