From the first time I heard his songs, I fell in love with this magnificent author. Later on, I discovered about the documentary. Amazing story, amazing. Just as I am happy they found him, I am sad he didn't get the reward he deserved and didn't make more albums afterward. Love from Serbia ♥

Avant, as all motown bosses, is a full-blown and gaping a-hole.

Never had a duet with José Feliciano

Thank you so much for this! I've seen this documentary many times over the years and am still captivated each and every time. Can't wait to watch it again.

Greatest documentary I've ever seen❤

In the docu I saw the word "AVOID" written on the Cold Fact album in the South African Archive of Censored Material here in Joburg. Growing up here you would sometimes see the words "AVOID AVOID" written on a music cassette if someone felt the music on it was really bad. Now I know where that came from 😂😂😂 BTW. If anyone needs the lyrics for any of Rodriguez's songs, I can recite them from memory for you. What an incredible human being. RIP Rodriguez.

Can you put polish subtitles Please?

Sussex records folded in 1975. That means someone was making money off of Rodriguez till at least the 2000's.

This is sad af dude

Clearance Avant is very shady and defensive

I'm a 63 year old woman today but still know the Cold Fact album verbatim. T'was a happy day when l learned that Rodriguez was alive and in South Africa. Pity l could go to his concert😢. RIP Sugarman. Glad you had the opportunity to witness your greatest fans in South Africa ❤❤❤

If I wouldn't have lived with a South African housemate in Dublin, I'd never heard about this amazing musician. Thank you Gerhard :D

Thanks for uploading this to youtube, nowhere to find. Beautiful docu!

The video is live at Red Rocks, the audio is from the studio version

Rip to the talented director

Genius

I wonder if he used the name “SIXTO” would things have been different in his beginnings

❤

❤❤❤❤

My boddy

Genius< good man.... RIP

Thank you for uploading

I always loved Rodriguez, am from South Africa, and today 2024 his music is relevant and brilliant as ever ❤ RIP Sugar Man

He was loved by the south African people

For me, one of the best documentaries. I just love this film so much. Rest in Piece director Malik Bandjelloul 🙏🏻 Rest in piece Rodriguez 🌟

Rodriguez' family should probably take Clarence Avant to court for all the royalties he appears to have stolen over the years.

Incrível saber a história e o legado desse grande artista e ser humano. RIP Eterno Rodríguez 🤍

Doooom!!! Absolutely love the heavy, sludgy, chugging sounds of doom metal. Next best thing to Type O Negative.

Incredible story! what a good man! He died 8th of August 2023. RIP great artist.

58:26 ♥️

Beautiful masterpiece.

Some of the best music and artists never catch on in America

Sixto Rodriguez departed this world for greener pastures on 8 August 2023. May his beautiful, unassuming soul, for ever rest in peace. ✝

Only the Government could have come up with such bizarre rumours to undermine the public and lay his music to rest.

My boat sails stormy seas Battles oceans filled with tears At last my port's in view Now that I've discovered you Oh I'd give my life so lightly For my gentle lady Give it freely and completely To my lady As life goes drifting by Like a breeze she'll gently sigh And slowly bow her head Then you'll hear her softly cry Oh I'd give my life so lightly To my gentle lady Give it freely and completely To my lady Words that you say when we're alone Though actions speak louder than words But all I can say is I love you so To drive away all my hurt Oh I'd give my life so lightly For my gentle lady Give it freely and completely To my lady Set sail before the sun Feel the warmth that's just begun Share each and every dream They belong to everyone Oh I'd give my life so lightly For my gentle lady Give it freely and completely To my lady

🙌🙌🙌

Love it❤

Never get tired of listening to this wonderful song and watching this beautiful video with the great Ray Thomas. The kid running from his mom must be my age now 😊Thank you for posting it.

Beautiful

Hermosísima cancion!! 🤙👍 Thanks!!!

Thank you so much for this lovely video and the excellent sound quality!

I lost my virginity listening to this song. Memory has it I was done before the song finished..

This is not a live recording, it is dubbed over

Someone put this video together very well! Thank you...

What a time it was to be alive. How the world has now changed for the worse. I will one day leave this world with these memories I have cherished.

My God...what a beautiful song Ray wrote...Rest in Peace Maestro...if this tune doesn't resonate with you it must be that you are old and creaky inside...The melody as well as the words....

RIP Ray. When you listen to this song and all those young faces from so long ago, you can't help but be nostalgic for a that much more simple time. in my 70's now remembering sitting on parents living room floor with a girl friend listening to this album "Seventh Sojourn " good times!

Yes, undoubtedly a masterpiece.
