This ... was my first Discogs purchase and i don't regret a single cent spent on it ... all the LPs are great, the sound is captivating, and what else is there to say except - Sade is Sade - magnificent as always !!!
Exactly my thoughts. Eventually, there will be, is my guess.. Same thing with the Amy Winehouse (The Collection) vinyl boxset: released in 2015, but now it's also going to be released as a cd boxset. :)
@@chamber20projects Because that's what I collect: CD's. I never collected any vinyl and probably will never do so. Although it has crossed my mind to be honest. ;) But then I realised vinyl has a few cons (for me personally). The two most important are space and prices. I don't have room to keep a collection of vinyl records. Besides that, new vinyl is expensive (yes, I can afford it, but I don't want to).
@@chamber20projects But I have nothing against vinyl you know. I just don't think it's the right format for me. And I don't want to buy second hand vinyl either. Because the price of an old vinyl is almost the same as the price for a new cd. And the cd comes undamaged at that pricepoint. Most vinyl not. So there's also a physical aspect to it. Vinyl doesn't often come with a booklet for example. A CD does. Vinyl is less compact, not the easiest format to handle. You have to clean vinyl once in a while, cd most of the time not. A vinyl record is also easier to damage. You must be very very careful with it. So all kind of things going on here. But I can tell you: CD will never die. You know why? Because of two (actually three) reasons: it's compact, it's digital and it's physical. So it combines the best aspects from different "worlds".
@@kngkrmson2179 That makes sense. It's like that old joke "I got into vinyl for the inconvenience and the expense." They do get damaged, sometimes even brand new sealed records can be poorly pressed. To me though if I'm gonna get a cd I might as well just listen to Spotify for the ultra convince. Usually in the car or through BT headphones. I realize I could buy the CD and rip the music for superior quality to streaming though,.which I did for years.
A interview yesterday,with the band,written on paper,08-10-2020,did tell something about that question mark.. What are Sade up to know? Recording, actually, in Gloucestershire, at Sade’s house, trying to finish an album and contemplating another tour.."This Far alludes to a point in the road, not the end of it." >>>>> So,there you go,it will be finished as there was a lot done at the end of 2018 already..
Huge fan here, really enjoyed your video. Sorry to hear that there were no liner notes or nice extras. Sade is already such an enigma so something extra for the real fans would have been really nice.
I'd love to have Mobile Fidelity Sound Labs SACD version of Love Deluxe and yes, if these are coming from a digital master then we"d also like the cd version.
The reason I feel this set is an easy pick up is first off the remastering, and then of course the price point is a no brainer. I preordered mine at $180 usd. I see the Soldier of Love vinyl alone selling on ebay for $180+. Theres currently a sealed Soldier of Love vinyl going for $300. Also, Love Delux didnt have a US vinyl pressing and also as a result asks a hefty price tag, along with international shipping. So really, if youre a fan and enjoy vinyl. Its a no brainer.
In my version, a small, signed tube of glue has been added to stick the sheet to the back of the box. The tube also says 8/25, so I think there are 25 lucky fans who got this special edition.
Not worth it, everyone's knows the smooth operator hit single version. I'm pretty sure less people like the UK version which sounds so like a demo version or like a very basic instrumentaly speaking.
Yes!! With all the Smooth Operator 12" extended mixes (Red Eye, Spirit, Snakebite), Should I Love You, Love Affair with LIfe, Room 55, Please Send Me Someone to Love, Make Some Room, etc.
@@thomasnelson5758 They are out of their minds. A comprehensive Sade box set with all the bonus goodies should’ve been released I. Both vinyl and CD format years ago. All the great musical acts cashed in on the idea but nooooo, they release this cheap SHYT for Sade
I prefer the originals and much better maxis I didn't buy the box too many people disappointed a lot of faults on the vinyl scratches and gondolas too expensive for what it is I've seen better. Thank you for your live 👍👍👍
I'm not quite sure about that. If you're talking about the first 3 albums, maybe so... but the albums Love Deluxe, Lovers Rock and Soldier Of Love are pretty hard to find on vinyl; at a decent price.
now please tell now there is no point of buying it because it has been remastered from digital copies, so the sound is not going to be the same as the original. you should make a video and tell us how it compares with the original.
special deluxe editions should come with new album art from the same photoshoot, custom record labels, and new custom liner notes, remixes and alternative versions of the songs....this is just buying the same stuff over again...with nothing special about it.
it's 2021, how in the hell are there still people that pronounce it Shar-day? I thought this was put to bed like twenty years ago. there is no R in sade.
This ... was my first Discogs purchase and i don't regret a single cent spent on it ... all the LPs are great, the sound is captivating, and what else is there to say except - Sade is Sade - magnificent as always !!!
Sade is timeless musical goddess ! And the band's music transcends time and space. Simply iconic thanks for this video
Glad you enjoyed it!
THE QUESTION MARK!! what an incredible easter egg! a seventh album and a seventh tour. may we all live long enough. love u sade
The simplicity of Sade is what I love about the band. Straight forward.
I really hope this gets a cd release at some point, looks promising that there might be a new album on the horizon

@@kngkrmson2179 Just curious why would you want it on cd?

Giving them a listen now. So far so good.
Even if I’m not a fan of the particular group, I always love Paul’s unboxing videos. Thanks Paul!
Glad you like them!
How could you not like Sade tf?
A interview yesterday,with the band,written on paper,08-10-2020,did tell something about that question mark..
What are Sade up to know? Recording, actually, in Gloucestershire, at Sade’s house, trying to finish an album and contemplating another tour.."This Far alludes to a point in the road, not the end of it."

So,there you go,it will be finished as there was a lot done at the end of 2018 already..

She’s elusive as heck
WTAF is wrong with record labels? Someone needs to tell them plain paper sleeves are not acceptable!
i heard they always liked these sleeves
I love Sade so much and wanted to buy this but honestly after seeing this unboxing....
I still want it ngl
omg its a beautiful set I hope I can get a copy
Let us know how they sound and how they compared to the originals when you get a chance to relax and listen.
So beautiful collectible. I wish I had this... well, maybe one day... :)
Sade Adu is so beautiful person.
I'd love to have Mobile Fidelity Sound Labs SACD version of Love Deluxe and yes, if these are coming from a digital master then we"d also like the cd version.
I will store my Best Of Sade album in this box in the meantime.
Yes indeed, or the Sade Ultimate Collection..
The reason I feel this set is an easy pick up is first off the remastering, and then of course the price point is a no brainer. I preordered mine at $180 usd. I see the Soldier of Love vinyl alone selling on ebay for $180+. Theres currently a sealed Soldier of Love vinyl going for $300.

Good point with regards to pricing of the old versions.
In my version, a small, signed tube of glue has been added to stick the sheet to the back of the box. The tube also says 8/25, so I think there are 25 lucky fans who got this
special edition.
A tube of glue seems random, but interesting... 👍🏻🤔
Please can you tell us what you think of the result of the remastering?
Is the sound really different?
thank you for your reply.
Quick question..
The smooth operator track is the original UK version or the USA international hit?
It will be as per the original UK vinyl LP
@@sdedition ...which is fair, because she's British after all. ;)
Not worth it, everyone's knows the smooth operator hit single version. I'm pretty sure less people like the UK version which sounds so like a demo version or like a very basic instrumentaly speaking.
@@antoniach4190 It’s about keeping the album intact. You don’t just revise an album 36 years after the fact.
@@antoniach4190 If you want the single version then buy the single. These are the albums. I don't understand the confusion.
I hope they release a cd box but including all the extras
Plus ‘Lovers Live’, remixes & B-Sides
@@seand67 you're right!!!
Yes!! With all the Smooth Operator 12" extended mixes (Red Eye, Spirit, Snakebite), Should I Love You, Love Affair with LIfe, Room 55, Please Send Me Someone to Love, Make Some Room, etc.

Does anybody know when the 7th record comes out? ;-)
So far indicates more music is on the way!
7:56 the scraping 😖
Should have printed lyrics on 1st lp inner sleeve; I know original didn't but this was their chance to correct that
For me stronger of pride and love deluxe
What is the quality of the remaster? How do the records sound? Thanks
They sound very good to me. They've done a proper job, I think.
I prefer the originals and much better maxis I didn't buy the box too many people disappointed a lot of faults on the vinyl scratches and gondolas too expensive for what it is I've seen better. Thank you for your live 👍👍👍
The ? may refer to an album of single versions, b-sides...
There would be no need to wait for that. Seems like it's a new album...
Maybe the 7th vinyl will be live 2011 tour
Nice box, but €175?!? You could get mint originals for less than half
I'm not quite sure about that. If you're talking about the first 3 albums, maybe so... but the albums Love Deluxe, Lovers Rock and Soldier Of Love are pretty hard to find on vinyl; at a decent price.
@@MissLadySoul Maybe so, but €29 for a single album, I would expect something more, at least a hardcover book and some decent inner sleeves...
@@Memphisflash53: Yes, I totally agree; it would've been nice if they included some bonus material.
LOL. An original love deluxe LP in mint condition will cost u €180! Do a little research before coming here and talking rubbish!
Obi Ezeamuzie that’s hardly the point, box is overpriced for six back to print records.f.i. The new Dire Straits box is just €100 for 6 records.
now please tell now there is no point of buying it because it has been remastered from digital copies, so the sound is not going to be the same as the original. you should make a video and tell us how it compares with the original.
His fingerprints alone just devalued this compilation by more than half...let alone what happens at 7.56 eeeek!
Rumour has it when this happened, 853 audiophiles died 😉.
I neeeed it
How much
Keep it physical!
Ok Olivia
special deluxe editions should come with new album art from the same photoshoot, custom record labels, and new custom liner notes, remixes and alternative versions of the songs....this is just buying the same stuff over again...with nothing special about it.
It is disappointing that there isn't a bonus album with rarities. Not book or booklet, either.
But the single albums are out of print and VERY expensive.
Snake bite bop
Glossy mess
Paper sleeves
Not from analog, meh
it's 2021, how in the hell are there still people that pronounce it Shar-day? I thought this was put to bed like twenty years ago. there is no R in sade.
Finger prints easy to get all over the glossy covers 😩
Looks so cheap. Too bad they failed to include the ‘Lovers Live’ album as well. No remixes, B-Sides ??? Smh
Save your originals. Digital vinyl.
I need a CD version please. Don't buy vinyl.
Hopefully that will come (not confirmed though)
