I heard today that Sixto Rodriguez, Sugar Man, died recently. I found out about his music from this site and more particularly the wonderful duo session of Sugar Man by the MLT.

RIP Sixto. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-66449150

Sixto Rodriguez: Searching for Sugar Man singer dies aged 81

The musician struggled to find success in his native US, but he developed a following in South Africa.
