Coming From Reality

Rodriguez was a very big part of my life, growing up in South Africa. He is the humblest of rock icons who for more than 2 decades, didn't realise he was a rock icon. If you wnat to know more, watch the movie Searching For Sugar Man. Learn to love this genius' music and buy his 2 albums, because they will affect your soul and enrich your world.If you are a fan of Leonard Cohen and Bob Dylan, you MUST listen to Rodriguez!

Rodriguez's follow-up album to his debut, Sugarman and last album to date. A wonderful album which is certainly as good as his previous one. Highlights are "A most disgusting song" and "I think of you". A classic album and must have.

Coming from South Africa and being of a certain age, I grew up listening to Rodriguez. I was shocked to learn that it was only SA who had discovered and loved his awesome music - he is nothing short of genius!

Another brilliant album from Rodriguez, the songs are in a different mould to the ones on "cold fact" but that just shows the pedigree of a true artist, one who can try different things and be bold enough to change musical styles.

Another good album from Rodriguez. In comparison to Cold Fact, I slightly prefer Cold Fact as it is a little more basic and raw.

A classy, wonderfully crafted album. This man is a true star. I heard about him on the radio and then investigated his history. He has been around a long time and hopefully will get the international recognition he deserves.

Finally beginning to get the recognition he deserves Sixto Rodriguez is one of the most poetic,articulate and genuinely authentic songwriters of his generation. The songs will uplift,move and inspire you. A great album.

I just wish I'd known about him years ago. There's a lovely groove to his music and some superb songs. He's as cool as cool can be!
