5 out of 5 stars Forgotten gem Rodriguez' candle was snuffed out far too early. He was an incredibly talented musician, although somewhat irreverent. If you are coy, don't buy this. But if you like to listen to someone's honest heart this is truly great both lyrically and musically. I wish he had lived to perform more music.
This is a classic. I am just suprised he is not better known. By piersvan (Tennessee)  | (41) |

5 out of 5 stars Sound system cranked up and I'm away !!! Unbelievable...don't even know where to find the words!!!Suffice to say that after the CBS documentary on Sugarman I ripped up the stairs to my computer and immediately bought three of the cds Rodriguez has made. For those of us who experienced the 60s and 70s, such as I did, discovering who I was, in Toronto,this music will have your mind searching for all the references ( Dylan,Beatles, Donovan.. only the obvious)of all that you loved about that time. poetic, not a moment outdated,I am loving Coming From Reality at the moment,sound system cranked up and I'm embraced by it all. What a bloody miracle ! Only adding to the amazingness of it all is Sixto's story of revival which you can read on the website. | (5) |

5 out of 5 stars Who says he's dead? Rodriguez is quite alive, was on Letterman, Summer of 2012. Was here in Park City when the documentary was released in Jan. 2012, Sundance Film Festival. This album is an all time classic. | (1) |

5 out of 5 stars Rodriguez is Alive & Well! This album is great! So too are the follow up from 1971 'Coming From Reality', a recent 'Live in South Africa' album and the Australian compilation 'At His Best'. All albums are absolutely worth searching online stores for. By Mitch (Downunder) | (29) |

5 out of 5 stars A CLASSIC.......A GENUINE CLASSIC This album should be included in those 100 best-of lists in music magazines. It is without a doubt a classic. I heard this cd only a couple of years ago and and played it continuosly for months on end. Such a great singer-songwriter. SUGARMAN and CRUCIFY YOUR MIND are my favourite tracks even though all the songs are good. If you like GARLAND JEFFRIES and CAT STEVENS you will love this. BUY THIS NOW!

 3 out of 5 stars My favourite album since nearly 30 years Everyone so far, to whom I played this album was enthusiastic about this music. Why Sixto is not a superstar, it can only be, because not many know Cold Fact. | (24) |
