Jesus, bring me my fix man

Posted over 4 years ago
My dad bought this record about 25 years ago in South Africa, and there's no better LP from his stash to blow my blues away.

  1. soulrocket says wow i have no words to express how cool this song is. its been a while since i played a track twice on mog, but i cant have enough of it. i found this info: "There are no references to Rodriguez or his work in any of the rock (or general music) reference books Originally released on Buddah Records in the U.S.A., the masters of the three LPs became the property of A & M Records when they bought Buddah Records. The three LPs were subsequently pressed and released in S.A. For an assortment of reasons, of the three, "Cold Fact" achieved the most success and sold like the proverbial bushfire." apparently "the best of" was only released in southafrica and it compiled songs from the first 2 albums plus some rarities.

  3. bloodtea says btw, it's good to know you enjoy this song that much. I'm pretty sure you'll like the rest of the songs.

  5. bloodtea says Yeah... guess so. And I was hoping to buy a CD... in order to keep the LP preserved - although it sounds better... it'd be harder to get a new one - but it's quite difficult to find anything related to Rodriguez here. I'm thinking of spendind a month or something like that in S.A.... maybe I'll get the chance to find something... I hope so.

  6. soulrocket says the 1996 cd release is deleted but there is a 2005 edition with a different cover, different track order and an extra song. i found one seller but its priced at $27.85. buying it in southafrica may be the better choice. you send me a copy when you buy it ;-)
