A Man Called Adam (sometimes abbreviated to AMCA) are an Ibiza-based
British dance music group comprising Sally Rodgers and Steve Jones, who
were pioneers of the chill out genre.
The group began as a jazz collective in the mid-1980s, taking their name
from a 1966 movie about a jazz musician starring Sammy Davis Jr, and
signing to the Acid Jazz label. By 1990 the original group had split up
and Rodgers and Jones signed to Big Life, which released their
breakthrough single "Barefoot in the Head". They went on to release three
albums, The Apple (Big Life, 1991), Duende (Other Records, 1998) and All
My Favourite... (Southern Fried Records, 2004). Apart from "Barefoot In
The Head" (which takes its title from a novel by Brian Aldiss) their most
famous singles include "I Want to Know" and "Easter Song". Another popular
track, "Estelle" has appeared on many compilations though it was never
released as a single.
