Song of the Day: Jane S. Piddy


I first heard Sixto Rodriguez in the lounge of Oban Backpackers. After several days of hearing his songs, but being too shy to ask about the artist (because everyone knows way more about music than me, and generally thinks I listen to crap) I was lucky enough to overhear a conversation about him. Rodriguez's story is fascinating. He was a massive star in South Africa, but didn't know it! There was even a documentary about him, Searching for Sugar Man

This evening I kicked the dogs out of the kitchen and played this album while I cooked, sang, and danced. 



Amazingly, the dogs only protested during the first song and then quieted down. I think they liked it, and I hope you do too.
