RODRIGUEZ: Coming From Reality

(Sussex #SXBS 7012 USA 1971)

Very rare perfect SEALED US original 2nd LP housed
in die-cut open sleeve...

Personnel:
Los Rodriguez (vocals, acoustic guitar)
Chris Spedding (guitar)
Phil Dennys (keyboards)
Gary Taylor (bass instrument)
Andrew Steele (drums)
Tony Carr (percussion).

Recorded in 1971 as the second chapter in this legendarily under-the-radar Detroit bard's
career, COMING FROM REALITY reads like the coda to a hippie dream the singer never
got to have. Dylan, Donovan, and the Beatles remain the primary influences here, but the
vision and approach is all his own: images are simultaneously psychedelic and stark, lyrical
themes both sociopolitical and inner, and arrangements both embroidered and hard-hitting.
Much like that of FOREVER CHANGES-era Arthur Lee' LOVE, the "reality" of this title

encompasses both a vivid romantic's sense of heaven and a nihilist's sense of hell. The gentle
suite "Sandrevan Lullaby-Lifestyles" finds nightmarish poetics ("The generals hate holidays
Others shoot-up to chase the sun blues away/Another store-front church is open") framed
by rich strings while "It Started Out So Nice" repeats the same trick with sci-fi overtones.
COMING FROM REALITY's emotional centerpiece happens with "A Most Disgusting Song"
- - a talking-blues/country tune based on the Beatles' "Rocky Raccoon"--that chronicles in
indelible detail a gig at a dive full of seriously hung-up characters and plays like an absurdist
fusion of Dylan's "Desolation Row" and Billy Joel's "Piano Man." Disturbing stuff but, all told,
an album as unexpected and essential as COLD FACT.
