The record that made Adele a global phenomenon, turning a break-up into soaring, soulful pop with 'Rolling in the Deep' and 'Someone Like You'. Big voice, bigger songs, broad appeal. A modern blockbuster that earned its sales. Released in 2011, it's a key entry in Adele's run.
On vinyl: A vinyl-revival-era release, so fresh pressings are usually easy to find new.
