Slade are a rock band from Wolverhampton, who rose to prominence during the GlamRock era of TheSeventies. With 17 consecutive Top 20 hits and six number ones, the British Hit Singles & Albums names them as the most successful British group of the 1970's based on sales of singles. They were the first act to have three singles enter at number one, and all six of the band's chart toppers (and the vast majority of their other material) were penned by Noddy Holder and Jim Lea.
