'Slade are an English rock band formed in Wolverhampton in 1966. They rose to prominence during the glam rock era in the early 1970s, achieving 17 consecutive top 20 hits and six number ones on the UK Singles Chart. The British Hit Singles & Albums names them the most successful British group of the 1970s based on sales of singles. They were the first act to have three singles enter the charts at number one; all six of the band's chart-toppers were penned by Noddy Holder and Jim Lea. As of 2006, total UK sales stand at 6,520,171, and their best-selling single, "Merry Xmas Everybody", has sold in excess of one million copies. According to the 1999 BBC documentary It's Slade, the band have sold more than 50 million records worldwide.

A re-issue as Beginnings of Slade was briefly released by Contour in 1975, but was quickly withdrawn from sale due to copyright issues.'

Please see my other listings, and if you win more than one item, please wait for me to send an invoice with combined postage.

I’m sorry but I cannot combine postage for overseas sales, ebay’s GSP simply won’t let me discount. If you are having the item sent to a UK address to then be forwarded overseas – please be aware I will need it opened, checked and feedback left at the UK ADDRESS as soon as it arrives as I am not accountable for issues with condition/shipping, nor can I accept returns IF sent overseas by a 3rd party.
