Adam Wade – Adam Wade's Greatest Hits

Released in 1993 by Collectables Records in association with Sony Music Special Products, this compilation preserves the sophisticated vocal pop and soul legacy of Adam Wade. Wade, often compared to contemporary legends like Johnny Mathis and Nat King Cole, rose to fame in the early 1960s with a string of smooth, romantic hits on the Coed and Epic labels. The production features his most enduring singles, including the Top 10 Billboard hits Take Good Care of Her, The Writing on the Wall, and As If I Didn't Know. This digital remastering captures the lush orchestral arrangements and Wade's warm tenor on classic standards and original pop-vocal performances like Ruby and Linda. As a notable figure in music history, Wade was one of the first African American male vocalists to achieve significant crossover success in the pop market, and this collection remains a definitive document of his chart-topping era.
