Black Vinyl LP - 180g, Half-Speed Master
€31,99

Release date: 21 June 2024

Discover Sade's iconic second studio album from 1985 as a high-quality reissue: “Promise” has been remastered at half speed using high-resolution transfers of the original masters at Abbey Road Studios to produce a particularly clear and detailed sound on 180g heavyweight vinyl – without compressing the dynamic range.

With hits such as “The Sweetest Taboo,” “Is It A Crime?” and “Never As Good As The First Time,” “Promise” defined the band's sophisticated soul-jazz sound and was recorded at Power Plant Studios (London) and Studio Miraval (France). Produced by Robin Millar, with Sade Adu on lead vocals, Paul Denman on bass, and Stuart Matthewman on saxophone and guitar, it is a milestone for collectors and fans of timeless soul music. Perfect for vinyl lovers who appreciate audiophile quality.
