A few days ago I watched the Academy Award winning documentary Searching for Sugar Man about the life of America born singer/songwriter Sixto Diaz Rodriguez. I have to admit that I didn't knew his name before but after it changed after this documentary. This film is a British-Swedish collaboration of two music fans searching the truth about the rumoured suicide of Rodriguez. He didn't made it great in his native country but he had massive success in South Africa almost 50 years ago. Seldom it is more worth to watch a documentary than this and it is good to remember a great artist.
Wanted to see this when it came out but forgot about it. Thanks for the reminder. Fascinating.
