Sade Birthday Rare Playlist

Anyone who knows us can attest to the fact that we love Helen Folasade Adu.  This incredible sister and her band, Sade, has made one of the most incredible impacts on soul, jazz and popular music for over 30 years.  From the beginning, her sound and vibe have been synonymous with cool and class.  So we want to take some time out to wish her a great day.  To honor her, we have done some research and put together a compilation of several rare tracks that you may not have ever heard before.  Check this and enjoy.
