Sixto Rodriguez Sixto Diaz Rodriguez was born in 1942 to Mexican immigrant parents in Detroit, Michigan. He was discovered by Dennis Coffey and his production partner Mike Theodore while singing in a Detroit club facing the wall. Impressed by his sound, they took Sixto to Sussex boss Clarance Avant, who signed him immediately. He released two albums on Sussex: His debut, Cold Fact, is a hidden gem, containing psychedelic protest song, not unlike Dylan’s, but edgier and funkier. The famous Sugarman can be found on this album. The second Sussex releases is called Coming from Reality, recorded in London. Sixto Rodriguez – Cold Fact (Sussex 1971) Tracklist: Sugar Man, Only Good For Conversation, Crucify Your Mind, This Is Not A Song, It's an Outburst:Or, The Establishment Blues, Hate Street Dialogue, Forget It, Inner City Blues, I Wonder, Like Janis, Gommorah (A Nursery Rhyme), Rich Folks Hoax, Jane S. Piddy. The funky psychedelic folk masterpiece Cold Fact was recorded in the fall of 1969 with Dennis Coffey on Guitar, Mike Theodore on keyboards and Funk Brothers, bassist Bob Babbit and drummer Andrew Smith, as rhythm section. It also contains the killertune Sugarman, where Coffey and Theodore experiment freely with backward tape delay, creating a psychedelic landscape for Sixto's songs. Unfortunately, at the time of release the records didn't sell, but over the years it grew into a rare classic. Lovingly re-issued in 2008 by Light in the Attic.

Look i have said time and time again that this is not a reissue - if you have any "CDF" all you have to do is compare the label to http://www.sussexlabel.blogspot.com.au/ - found using a simple google search .......i am nearly 70 years old and i can do it??
