Background and repertoire
Rodolfo is the follow-up to the Latin Grammy awarded El Mundo Cabe en Una Canción (2006) which was recorded at the Circo Beat Studios in Argentina. The album was recorded in Páez' house with sole company of his piano, and was meant as an album of love songs. The first track, "Si Es Amor", begins with the lyrics "wisdom comes when is useless", but finishes with optimism, stating "nothing else matters when there is love". "Vas Conmigo" is also a love song, with evocations for his native town Rosario as he did on his previous album. "Sofi Fue una Nena de Papá" and "El Verdadero Amar", are two stories narrated with a tinge of violence and marginalization. "Nocturno en Sol +" and "Waltz for Marguie" are two instrumental tracks. On the song "El cuarto de al lado", Páez defines life. "Siempre te voy a Amar", "Mágica Hermosura" and "Gracias", are remembrances of past relationships and they include references to Luis Alberto Spinetta, Litto Nebbia and Charly García.
Chart performance
Rodolfo entered the Argentinian Albums Chart at number eight, being the third best debut of the week of September 21, 2007, following La Lengua Popular by Andrés Calamaro, which peaked at number-one, and Manu Chao's La Radiolina at number seven.
