You had to love the 80′s. Bands teased hair with the fine care of tuning a classic Gibson. Michael was the gold standard for cool. And we wore spike wrist bands with neon green pullovers-confidently. But amid this decade of unchecked excess, a subtle voice slipped through the hedonism to softly seduce us from across the ocean.
Sade.
Now many of you may not be familiar with the sexy Britain due to her penchant for taking extensive vacations from the studio but when she’s ready to record, the R & B world is treated to something different, enjoyable. Not to say there aren’t any gals out now doing their thing, but Sade whispering to you through a pair of Bose speakers is virtually unmatched in its ability to grab you.
Anyway, she’s back with Soldier of Love. It’s a pretty good appetizer until I get a chance to here the whole album.
Oh yeah, I recommend picking up some of her old stuff if you can. You or the special person in your life wont be disappointed.
