Adeva! Ultimate 4CD set

House siren’s debut album gets repackaged

Angular-haired house lungstress Adeva is to release an expanded edition of her self-titled solo album.

Born in Patterson, New Jersey in 1960, Adeva piped up at the dawn of 1989 and launched herself as a solo turn with the single ‘Respect’, a housier take on Aretha Franklin’s empowerment anthem, and issued her debut album in August 1989. Adeva’s singles had the unique habit of going no further than No.17, yet the album sold over 300,000 copies and reached number six in the Official UK Album Chart.

30 years later, Adeva! Ultimate is a 30th anniversary, four disc celebration of her eponymous debut, and comes with a generous three bonus discs, collecting together all the remixes from the period, featuring reswizzlers such as Frankie Knuckles, Smack Productions, Dancin’ Danny D, Paul Simpson, Dancing Divas, Love To Infinity, JZJ and Tony Humphries.

This quadruple-CD collection comes in card wallet-style packaging which includes a 24-page booklet including sleeve notes and a UK discography.

Adeva would go on to further singles, and release collaborations with Hyper GoGo and Frankie Knuckles, but despite a regular showing in the lower reaches of the charts, she was unable to replicate the success of her first flush.

Adeva! Ultimate is released via Cherry Pop on 26 June 2020 (was 29 May 2020).
