Description

9-20-24 ReleaseLovers Rock is Sade’s fifth album, originally released in 2000. The album was a departure from their initial sound. It is named after a style of romantic reggae music, and inspired by reggae, dub, and neo-soul. The album was recorded after an eight year hiatus and much of the lyrics are based on Sade’s experiences in that time. Features the singles “By Your Side” and “King of Sorrow.” The vinyl audio uses high resolution digital transfers of the stereo master mixes, from the original studio recordings, remastered at half-speed at Abbey Road Studios. The elaborate, half-speed mastering process has produced exceptionally clean and detailed audio whilst remaining faithful to the band’s intended sound. No additional digital limiting was used in the mastering process, so the album benefits from the advantage of extra clarity and pure fidelity, preserving the dynamic range of the original mixes.The original album sleeve and packaging elements have been meticulously reproduced in exact detail with authentic paper and printing methods.Heavyweight vinyl produced by Legacy in 2024.
