At His Best is a compilation album from American singer/song writer, Sixto Rodriguez. It was originally released exclusively in Australia by the Australian record label Blue Goose Music in 1977. Unbeknownst at the time even to Rodríguez himself, bootleg copies of the album subsequently went platinum in South Africa in the late 1970s.
The tracks "Can't Get Away", "I'll Slip Away", and "Street Boy" were originally recorded for his unfinished third studio album; these three were later included as bonus tracks on the 2009 U.S. re-issue of his second studio album, Coming from Reality.
