Good Times (Adam Rickitt album)

Good Times is the debut and only album by the British actor and pop artist Adam Rickitt, released in 1999.

After leaving the soap opera Coronation Street, Rickitt signed a Pounds 100,000 six-album deal with music giants Polydor Records. For his first effort he contributed to the composition of several songs, something unusual for a pop music artist more oriented towards teenagers.

Three singles were released: The first one, "I Breathe Again", was the most successful, it reached #5 in the UK charts, and became silver certified by BPI. "Everything My Heart Desires" was chosen as the second single, it reached #15 in UK charts. "Good Times" was announced as the third single, but instead "The Best Thing" was chosen, it reached #25 in UK.

Commercially, it did not reach the top 40 in the UK (reached number 41 on the UK Albums Chart.) and did not appear on European charts. However, it was certified platinum in Southeast Asia.

Although Rickitt had said in early interviews that he would be recording his second album in 2000, the poor chart performance and total lack of interest of the artist, led to the end of his contract and Rickitt returned to acting.

After years unavailable to the public due to the label's disinterest, the album was available for streaming in 2018.
