The Oscar-winning documentary "Searching for Sugar Man" helped launch a brand-new career for its subject, Sixto Rodriguez, 71, who went from obscurity in his native U.S. to playing 5,000-seat arenas like L.A.'s Greek Theatre.
Since the film opened, Rodriguez's two albums -- his 1970 debut, "Cold Fact," and 1971's "Coming From Reality" -- have sold 173,000 and 105,000 copies, respectively.
