The world is a lot less bright since it lost this legend. Luckily for us sinners still stuck on this rock, thanks to the music... RODRIGUEZ LIVES! ☮️❤️
As a Detroiter, and someone who has seen Sugarman on the streets, I am absolutely beaming with pride that this mad was so impactful for so many people. Awesome story, and yet another piece of Detroit that has made the world better!
...a bob Dylan who could actually sing and was ripped off by a corporately run music industry. I was lucky enough to have been given a vinyl copy of his Cold Fact album in the early 1980s by a friend. Instantly his voice, words and music resonating with me on all sorts of levels What a genuine person - comes out in his music Playing in the Bluesfestival in Australian in the coming weeks
my dad played his music all through my childhood - my dad lives still everytime I hear his music - thank you to a very special spirit - all potential rockstars need to listen
Same as my father this is his account I was just looking for his music so I could feel him in the music and I love seeing someone else with these memories and feeling
Fabulous Rodriguez... South Africans absolutely loved his album during the 80's. Bought the album. Covered some of his amazing songs at my gigs. What a brilliant artist. I can barely listen to the ra ra music that is out in the market these days. So many superb musical artists of great integrity like him never make it into the public arena. What a great loss. So happy 2 South African producers seized Rodrigues from total obscurity and produced a film about him. He is truely amazing. Authentic.
I never even heard of him until watching his documentary on Netflix a couple of weeks ago and am delighted to see him finally get some of the recognition he deserves! Such a humble and immensely talented man.
Wow how proud you must be feeling and that you saw him on the streets is amazing .....I saw him live in Adelaide australia on sunday night ...He helped me live through some pretty tough times in the 80s when I was a kid his music was my bible ....I got to shake his hand and say thank you to him ...he replied by saying no no no thank you Lui its my pleasure to meet you !! Not that many left like him !! I love you Sugarman
So cool.. he actually covered a song from an young artist such as Paolo Nutini.. in my opinion this shows how opened this guy is.. we have no age.. :D we all live untill we die.. hahaha!:D
I was introduced to his music in the early 80’s loved his music with its profound lyrics and poetic story telling that stimulate thoughts, I rank him with other contemporary musical story tellers, Harry Chapin, Jackson Browne, Warren Zevon.
So sorry to hear he is having health issues was so hopeing he would play somewhere close to where I live so I could see him I think his music and songs are just so great.
Wow... I so envy you having that kind of star in your hometown. I've dicsovered him recently and I can't understand why did it take me so long... Anyway, greetings from Poland and if you'll see him by accident, just tell him that he's the mothaf....n' man :)
Amazing latin media doesn't even have a clue who Sixto Rodriguez is!! I have contacted media in San Antonio and they are ignorant to his music or existence
This guy needs to be inducted to the Rock n Roll Hall of Fame! Who wants to start a petition! Amazing music! Amazing songwriter!
I agree
100 percent
Agree
Let's getting going... 2020...
how do we start?
I agree

Can you believe the man was 70 when that was recorded ?! He's the most upsettingly amazing person in so many ways.

What a genuine person - comes out in his music
Playing in the Bluesfestival in Australian in the coming weeks
He was not ripped of by the music industry or corporations. He was ripped of by Clarence Avant.
Truly humble, he genuinely couldn't wait to give all the props to Nutini..

Amazing latin media doesn't even have a clue who Sixto Rodriguez is!! I have contacted media in San Antonio and they are ignorant to his music or existence
We were made for each other. I only hope one day Sam you come back to me
Where's Sixto? Now a days still singing his poetic justice
In Auckland New Zealand October 13th I am going!
LUCKY YOU!
Nutini sings a lot of Rodriguez's songs, so it must be a returned 'favor'.
🌟😊💫🌞☮
Paris ,London, Barcelona next May...
Gurú of our life path
ls he coming to europe?
Great song, and his version - acoustic - is better than the original IMHO, capturing the feeling of loneliness of the song. I hope that he records it.
Wow!! That would be me made up …Rodriguez covering my song
Anyone knows the chords of this song? Thanks...
this is a great man. what humility!
better than Paolo nutini and better than bob Dylan. where is the justice?
gringo Dylan is the man
No better than Dylan...
Paolo Nutini sings this song with more depth in his soul than should be allowed by any human being. What a voice. @@demianmachado9043
Killer!
KILLER!
esta molt be , busqueu-lo
I would give anything to be held by you again sam
