Bouleversant. La magie au coin du ruisseau, ses contours de rues, sous frissons. Jusqu'à l'échine parcourue. S'abreuver de la virtuosité en musique. L'espace d'une chanson. Atteindre le cosmos.
I know, right! I live in the US and I just saw the movie. Bought the CDs. I'm a guitarist and the other night I was coming home from playing and put in Cold Fact (for the first time) for the ride home. I sat in my driveway until 2am (I had to be up for work at 6 for my real job) to listen to the rest of the album. I could have gone inside and put it in, but I was so transfixed that I didn't want to interrupt it even for a second... It is one of the best albums I've ever heard...
Rest in Peace, Mr. Rodriguez. You've been a prominent musician, the most normal and the best labourer and one of the greatest wise men. You and your musics are the friends for the poors, those who suffer, and thoes who seek for better world.
Que canciones nos perdimos, ahora que podemos escucharlas siento que Sixto es el verdadero compositor de los '60 y '70. un hombre tan simple y humilde no calza en los moldes del show business
Oh Sixto, how great are your sons. I'm so sorry by your work were buried so many years but now. . . we can know your sons it and enjoy them. blessing good man.
Well Said Niko.. Yes and he was resurrected after 40 years. Hallelujah. And his music and poetry hit me right between the eyes. "was it you tortured by your thirst or the treasures that you seek"
Combien de talents comme celui de cet homme sont passés sous le radar? Ça me rend malade de savoir qu'il y a d'autres pépites comme celle-ci qui resteront à jamais perdues.
Rodriguez was so far ahead of his time ... but it had to take South Africa and the Southern Hemisphere countries to honour and validate his greatness ...
Beautiful version!! I like that he's using a guitar that has a deeper sound too. I think it suites his voice better then the guitar I've seen him using in other videos. Amazing song!
Wow! What an amazing story!---It proves real talent cannot be hidden, suppressed, oppressed,etc. Unfortunately, a few other great talents suffered the same fate and worse. I was moved by his decency, humility and perspective on life. His music, better yet, his message is of greatness,healing and love.
This is my favourite video on YT at the moment. Saw him perform at Jersey Folklore a couple of weeks ago, along with Joan Armatrading, Van Morrison and Ray Davies, but it was his performance that really moved me. I'd not heard of him before but I'm now hooked on the Sugarman. Hope the film does well and the record sales follow.
his name is also jesus rodriguez,just as touching loveable he deserves this name how ever i am a muslim i use to lisent to rap and things but when i watched the ''search for suggerman'' i completely deleted my 200,00 rap music and buyed his album now i found the real me it revives me the words kicked me so hard that make me more thinking of say's things that i can't explain he made the new me'' i hope you all understand sorry for my bad english thumbs up if you agree on this.
@@eye2eye899 i know Rodriguez is from Detroit, i was trying to make the point that, in 3rd world countries, we have plenty of cases like him. Painters, musicians, poets, filmmakers..etc.
Je ne félicite pas les réalisateurs de ces deux vidéos tournée dans une pauvre rue de Paris. Ce n'est vraiment pas à la hauteur de cet immense artiste. Même moi, j'aurai fait mieux avec ma caméra Super 8 et mon smartphone... Honte à eux et gloire éternelle pour M. Sixto RODRIGUEZ !
What a gift to humanity…
RIP Sixto. Thanks for the music.

RIP Sixto! It's amazing how his voice sounds exactly like the studio recording 40 years later singing on a sidewalk

c'est tout simplement magnifique

He is the story of the music - his voice needs nothing from the industry
timeless - great poet and musician

I've been listening to nothing but his two CD's for weeks. Great storyteller.
THIS MAN IS GREAT - God Bless To You Sixto
love this beautiful man and his great lyrics
An excelent song and a superb performance by Rodriguez. Nice picture. Thank you.
genius.
This is a beautiful collaboration. Thank you @l'express and Rodriguez ! Filling me up.
meglio tardi che mai ...conoscere un artista così !
He should have been big. Nice to see him get some of the credit he deserves.

very intimate and moving. what a brilliant musician and a beautiful song.
beautifully presented song from a legend. love the location and recording
Quelle voix! Quelle musique! J'aime
thank you all for keeping him alive
In almost every video I have seen, he covers the brand of the guitar. he will know the reason, and I respect it whatever it is
Rufus Corleone, Yamaha AEX500N is the model he uses
i cant believe he just played a tour in my city and i missed it. its the closest i will ever get to the sixties

Great song...viva Mexico....
I'm bummed out I missed his concert In my city Auckland, I've had Cold and Coming from Reality since 1980 and I missed the concert bummed
great thanks for sharing :)
hope he will decide to do a new album :)
same - cheers from Australia
beautiful, seeing him live in sydney next month!
And from before Searching For Sugarman. This should have been in the movie. The whole clip.
La Takamine y la acustica del callejon hacen que el sonido explote de belleza.
Je l'ai vu au Zenith ou j'en ai un bon souvenir , RIP
simply Sixto!!!

Unique.....
...WOW!!!
Rip😢

sugar man !
SOUNDS JUST LIKE HE DOSE ON THE ALBUM:)
al final el talento brilla,lastima que tardara tanto.
What guitar type is it exactly? It seems to be some sort of hybrid between a dreadnaught and a classical guitar. Thanks
Which model Takamine is the guitar he is using? Anyone know?
It seems unbelievable that this singer had to carry refrigerators down stairs for decades in order to feed his family.
Welcome to 3rd world, we are full of geniouses picking up papers on the streets, artists laying bricks, etc.
@@anibalnikov47 he’s from the US not the third world

Mi piace
Looks to be a parlor sized guitar w/ a cut-away
un 7
What kind of logic is that? It proves that real talent can in fact be hidden and suppressed, you actually say that yourself just afterwards.
"""C A N N O T!. be be hidden or suppress......

wut dat tipo :D
Amazing man and songs. You can support him by going to the website change dot org and writing your message..
