Originally issued in 1994, The Best Of Sade is the sublime British act's first hits compilation. It gathers 16 of their biggest singles, rarities, and most beloved tracks.

Sade's crystalline singing defined a certain brand of musical cool for mid-1980's pop. Yet, the band's overwhelmingly fine musicianship - never pushy, always understated, the height of sophistication - is always abundantly evident in the songs as well.

The Best Of Sade showcases the extraordinary longevity and creativity of this brilliant artist. With definitive classics like "Smooth Operator," "The Sweetest Taboo," and "No Ordinary Love," it dominated the charts in both 1994 and 1995.

The album went quadruple-platinum in the US and sold more than 2 million copies in Europe. After this compilation was released, Sade continued to perfect and evolve their sound. This Best Of collection serves as the perfect bridge to the group's later work.
