Sade’s Stronger Than Pride—originally released in 1988—returns in a stunning half-speed mastered 180g vinyl reissue, offering the most precise and faithful presentation of this classic album yet. The band’s third studio release features some of Sade’s most enduring and stylish singles, including “Love Is Stronger Than Pride,” “Paradise,” “Nothing Can Come Between Us,” “Turn My Back on You,” and “Haunt Me.”

Recorded across several iconic studios—Compass Point Studios in the Bahamas, Studio Miraval in France, and Studio Marcadet in Paris—the album blends warm tropical grooves, understated R&B sophistication, and Sade Adu’s unmistakable vocal presence. For this reissue, the original stereo master mixes have been transferred in high resolution and remastered at half-speed at Abbey Road Studios, a specialist process that reveals exceptional clarity, texture, and depth.

The half-speed mastering technique preserves the album’s full dynamic range, free from added digital limiting, resulting in a listening experience that feels open, detailed, and true to the band’s original vision. Pressed on pure 180-gram heavyweight black vinyl, this edition is designed for audiophiles and longtime fans alike.

The packaging has been faithfully reproduced, mirroring the original 1988 artwork with meticulous attention to detail, using authentic paper stocks and printing methods.

Elegant, emotional, and beautifully crafted, this reissue of Stronger Than Pride is the definitive vinyl edition of one of Sade’s most beloved albums.
