Sony are reissuing Sade’s six studio albums, in two separate batches, this year.

Some of these albums on vinyl, such as Love Deluxe and Lovers Rock command high prices on the used market so this will be very welcome news.

Diamond Life (1984), Promise (1985) and Love is Stronger Than Pride (1988) are due on 21 June, while Love Deluxe (1992) , Lovers Rock (2000) and Soldier of Love (2010) are coming on 20 September.

These are presumably the new remasters from 2020’s So Far box set (SDE unboxing, here) although it’s not clear if they will also be half-speed mastered.

While the usual grumbles remain – no CD remasters, no bonus tracks, no coloured vinyl limited editions – the really good news is that these new vinyl reissues are dirt cheap, compared to what we are used to. As you will see below, these are around £21 a pop, which of course used to be standard, but now feels like a bargain.

These Sade albums are released by Sony on 21 June and 20 September 2024, respectively.
