CD of the month (10)

I'm no expert on musical genres, but I know what I like, and this, Sade's debut album, is one of the all time greats, whether we call it easy listening, groove, soul or something else.

With a majority of original tracks, Sade Adu and her band invented a new sound and niche, which proved so successful that they were quickly imitated, though nothing that matched the pioneering quality of this album.

One of my all-time favourites.
