Limited double vinyl LP pressing. The Best of Sade is the first greatest hits album by vocalist Sade Adu and her band. It was originally released in November 1994. By Epic Records. Sade formed in London in 1982. However, three of their members were originally from Kingston upon Hull in the East Riding of Yorkshire. Their music features elements of soul, R&B, jazz, soft rock, and funk. Sade's 1984 debut studio album Diamond Life, was a hit internationally, reaching # 1 in several countries and the Top Ten in the US where it has sold in excess of 4 million copies. In late 1985, Sade released their second studio album Promise, which peaked at No. 1 in both the UK and the US. It was certified double platinum in the UK, and quadruple platinum in the US. In 1986 Sade won a Grammy Award for Best New Artist. Their 2000 fifth studio album, Lovers Rock, won the Grammy Award for Best Pop Vocal Album. Sade's US certified sales so far stand at 23.5 million units according to Recording Industry Association of America (RIAAand have sold more than 75 million records worldwide to date. The band were ranked at #50 on VH1's list of the "100 greatest artists of all time." Review: Essential. - Looks like gettin' hold of the album of one's choice on desertcart is simply a game of patience. Found this gem here after a fairly long search. About the collection, simply magical. Transports you to smoky and desolate pubs far far away. Sade lets her voice take centerstage, the instruments keepin' pace but never taking up the limelight (thank God for the decision to go with a non-remastered format). Highly recommended for those unwind sessions during a hard day's night, in a darkened room as an accompaniment to your favorite poison. Seems like there's a lone copy still hangin' around at the bargain price. All I can say is, "Finders, keepers".. this is one of those collections you will find yourself returning to in those quiet moments. Review: Must Buy for every sade lover - Fantastic Recording an pressing. Stole my heart.

Great engineered album
This is the best sounding album in my collection till date. Though it has gone through a little bit aggresive mastering in compare to the original release, but still it sounds great. All songs are good, brilliant work done by everyone starting from artists to sound engineers. This album is a reference to how music should sound like.

Doppio vinile nero in formato 180 grammi. Acquistato in offerta a meno di 20 Euro.. soldi spesi benissimo! Pro: - Vinili perfetti e piatti; - Audio pulito e silenzioso. Contro: - Nulla di rilevabile. Sade, di origini nigeriane, naturalizzata britannica ha iniziato come stilista e modella e forse non tutti sanno che non è semplicemente una raffinata cantante ma anche e soprattutto una compositrice, arrangiatrice e produttrice discografica.. non ha solo la voce, ma anche un notevole talento musicale a tutto tondo. Poi che è bella da paura, di certo l'ha aiutata.. I suoi dischi hanno fatto da colonna sonora alla mia giovinezza, a cavallo degli anni '80 e '90.. quella voce calda e seducente, quelle sonorità particolari che miscelano il R&B, il Jazz, il Soul e l'influenza del fervido e prolifico genio musicale britannico.. ci hanno regalato brani che ancora oggi sembrano assolutamente contemporanei e attuali. Senza dimenticare quelle foto, quelle copertine e quei video musicali che la mostravano nella sua perfezione fisica e bellezza più latina che africana, voluta da contratto dalla sua casa discografica. La copertina di questa raccolta invece è completamente l'opposto, ce la presenta nella sua totale naturalità. Tornando al prodotto fisico, i due dischi sono quasi perfettamente piatti.. e questo mi fa molto piacere.. cosa non sempre scontata, anche con i 180gr. Le registrazioni sono di buono/ottima qualità, le tracce sono pulite come anche gli intervalli tra un brano e l'altro. Buona la dinamica e abbastanza ampio il palcoscenico sonoro, suono caldo e pieno. Ho anche i dischi originali di 30 e più anni fa.. ma oramai sono un po' rovinati! Consiglio assolutamente, non tutti, ma quasi tutti i brani più famosi ed iconici di Sade in questo doppio di ottima qualità generale.
