Description
Back in 1971,Coming From Realitywas Rodriguezs last gasp, the follow-up toCold Factand the final album he was allowed to record for the Sussex label. Unearthed, once again, by Light In The Attic Records, its another treat for fans new and old, designed at the time as Rodriguezs vision of a perfect pop album.
Coming From Realityfound Rodriguez decamping from Detroit to Londons Lansdowne Studios, where the album was recorded with some of the UKs top talent including Chris Spedding (Sex Pistols, Dusty Springfield, Harry Nilsson) and producer Steve Rowland (The Pretty Things, PJ Proby and the man who discovered The Cure), who recallsComing From Realityas 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 Heikkis Suburbia Bus Tour. The CD reissue also includes three previously unreleased bonus tracks recorded in Detroit in 1972 withCold Factcollaborators Mike Theodore & Dennis Coffey, representing the last thing they ever did together.
