Essential.
Looks like gettin' hold of the album of one's choice on Amazon is simply a game of patience. Found this gem here after a fairly long search. About the collection, simply magical. Transports you to smoky and desolate pubs far far away. Sade lets her voice take centerstage, the instruments keepin' pace but never taking up the limelight (thank God for the decision to go with a non-remastered format). Highly recommended for those unwind sessions during a hard day's night, in a darkened room as an accompaniment to your favorite poison. Seems like there's a lone copy still hangin' around at the bargain price. All I can say is, "Finders, keepers".. this is one of those collections you will find yourself returning to in those quiet moments.

Great engineered album
This is the best sounding album in my collection till date. Though it has gone through a little bit aggresive mastering in compare to the original release, but still it sounds great. All songs are good, brilliant work done by everyone starting from artists to sound engineers. This album is a reference to how music should sound like.
