About This Item
This compilation of killer Adam Faith sides is drawn from EPs issued in the UK and France between 1959 and 1962. It features most of his early Stringbeat hits, notably 'What Do You Want', 'Poor Me', 'Someone Else's Baby', 'When Johnny Comes Marching Home', 'How About That', 'Made You', etc. Also included are several album tracks and dedicated EP-only cuts. During the time-frame covered by these recordings, Adam was second only to Cliff in the UK Pop Idol stakes. After the hits dried up in the mid-60s he turned to acting, earning plaudits for the ITV series Budgie, while in the early 70s he re-connected with Pop music, in management and production (he famously discovered Leo Sayer). In the 80s he reinvented himself as a Inchfinancial advisorInch, a career move which ended badly, while in the 90s he returned to stage and TV acting. Album Tracks 1. I Vibrate 2. Poor Me 3.
