Back In Stock

Recorded in 1970 with legendary producer steve rowland (Pretty Things, the Cure). Back in 1971, Coming from Reality was Rodriguez's last gasp, the follow-up to Cold Fact and the final album he was allowed to record for the Sussex label. Coming from Reality found Rodriguez decamping from Detroit to London's Lansdowne Studios, where the album was recorded with some of the UK's top talent including Chris Spedding (Sex Pistols, Dusty Springfield, Harry Nilsson) and producer Steve Rowland, who recalls Coming from Reality as his favourite ever recording project. Highlights include the super-poppy To Whom it May Concern, the Rocky Raccoon inspired A Most Disgusting Song and period piece Heikki's Suburbia Bus Tour.
