that and his participation in a revolution, without him even knowing it at the time
music is so powerful. really in awe of people who make it

Yeah, I had never heard of him. We were up visiting for a week or so and one night Terry (our friend) plays some tracks by Rodriguez and then puts the movie on. So we sit and watch the movie. The whole time, my wife and Terry are talking about Rodriguez as if they know him and I'm like wtf? So then Terry tells me that he lives in the house behind them, right across the alley and I'm like nah, can't be.
Anyway, a couple of days later Terry takes me over there and introduces me and we sit and yak for a little bit, not much to say really. He seemed pretty shy for the most part.
Anyway, that is like the most famous person I have actually met. lol.
