The photographs of Sade I took back in 1982, before she found international fame and was just one of my mates on the London music scene are now available to purchase online as signed prints from a limited edition of 50 from Fleur De Lys Publishing Ltd here.
My Sade prints were exhibited at the prestigious Mall Galleries in London during the summer of 2009 as part of Royal Society of British Sculptors member Guy Portelli's Pop Icons exhibition. The exhibition, with my photographs, is now on tour nationally with the possibility of a future global tour.
The exhibition was a huge success; you can see some shots of the preparation and the private views here and read an interview with Guy prior to the Mall Galleries exhibition.
As fans of Sade know, Sade is not just a singer but a band comprising sax player and co-songwriter Stuart Matthewman, bassist Paul Denman and keyboard player Andrew Hale. You can read more about my times hanging around with the band in the early 80s in a couple of blog articles I wrote in 2006. Turn of the 80s - The Hull Connection: Sade and Turn of the 80s - The Clubbing Connection.
This article which contains some of my original photos, has consistently proved to be one of my most popular articles and still gets regular readers from all over the world.
Sade's new 2010 album Soldier of Love has quite deservedly topped the US and European charts and she remains the elegant enigma she has always been; a true British icon.
