Sweetback are a trio of musicians who provided important backing for Sade \u2013 the kind of warm, classic-styled soul grooves that made her a standout right from the start \u2013 and which also inspired a whole generation of musicians to leave behind some of the more electronic modes they were using in the 80s. The set really marks a shift back towards warmer, jazzier, more human sounds of soul music in the 90s \u2013 and in addition to great instrumentation by the core trio, the set also features some early vocals from Amel Larrieux, plus work from Maxwell too. Titles include &#8220;You Will Rise&#8221;, &#8220;Au Naturel&#8221;, &#8220;Walk Of Ju&#8221;, &#8220;Softly Softly&#8221;, and &#8220;Sensations&#8221;. (First-ever proper vinyl release!)
