2008 debut album from the singer/songwriter who cites influences as diverse as Etta James, Jill Scott, Bjork, Dusty Springfield, Billy Bragg, Billie Holiday, Jeff Buckley, the Cure and Peggy Lee. Adele is a truly unique artist. With her mix up of R&B and Soul served up with a healthy dash of feisty London attitude, she spins beautiful dark stories of loves won and lost and sometimes just daydreamed about on 12 beautiful and memorable tracks. Review: Adele: 19 [CD] - 19, released in 2008, was Adele's debut album. It features 12 tracks, and the title was selected based on her age during production of the album (which she has made a tradition with her subsequent albums). The album was a bigger hit in the UK than in the United States, but the single "Chasing Pavements" was a moderate success in the US. It and the song "Make You Feel My Love" are the two best songs on the album, but every song on the album is good and highlights Adele's vocal talent. Despite her age at the time, the album has a much more adult contemporary sound (as all her albums do) than it does a pop sound. The CD liner features the song lyrics and production notes for each track, pictures, and a thank-you note on the final page. Ultimately, while this album was not a massive hit like her subsequent albums (especially 21 and 25), it is terrific, and listening to it, you can tell that Adele was destined for stardom. It is absolutely worth listening to if you are an Adele fan or just a fan of the more adult-oriented singer-songwriter genre. Review: Good quality - The vinyl versions are the best! This is the way to know the artist better.

I bought the "21" CD first and absolutely love Adele's rich, deep voice and vocals. I think her CD "19" has more of a jazz/blues feel to it and I can tell she has a younger sounding voice in this CD. I still love this CD and believe that anyone who likes "21" will like this CD too.

Ordered this CD for my wife (she asked for it for her birthday) but before I did I found a site that allowed me to play it first. I was pleasantly surprised and was even happier when she asked for one of Adele's other albums...21. So, after playing that album Adele now has TWO new fans. I also must add that Amazon.com made it so easy to order that I will probably pick up more CD's there.
