Extended Play CD
Adam Faith came very close to setting a pop music chart world record in mid-1960, when trying for three number No.1 hits in a row with successive single releases.
He only missed out by a slender 1 point margin with the third of the releases.
Adam’s meteoric rise to pop stardom began in late 1959 when his first recording for Parlophone What Do You Want? rocketed to the number 1 spot soon after release.
Early in 1960 the follow up Poor Me arrived at the number 1 slot.
Just a couple of months later Someone Else’s Baby narrowly missed completing the hat -trick and settled in the number 2 position for several weeks.
It wasn’t long after in mid-June that Adam was climbing the charts again, this time with a beat version of When Johnny Comes Marching Home which became another top 5 hit.
At its peak ‘What Do You Want?’ was selling 50,000 a day on its way to the top spot.
This 34 track collection comprises of tracks from Adam Faith's original EP releases and features many of his greatest recordings.
