Grace Jones: Profile



Grace Jones was one of the more unforgettable characters to emerge from New York City's
hedonistic Studio 54 disco scene during the late '70s. Born May 19, 1952, in Kingston, Jamaica,
Jones studied theater at Syracuse University before launching a career as a model. Jones'
statuesque and flamboyant look proved to be a hit in the New York City nightclub scene, which
led to a recording contract with Island Records in 1977. While such disco-based albums as 1977's
Portfolio, 1978's Fame, and 1979's Muse failed to break the singer commercially, Jones soon amassed
a substantial following amongst gay men with her sexually charged live show, leading to her title at the
time of "Queen of the Gay Discos."

But with the dawn of the '80s came a massive anti-disco movement across the U.S., leading to Jones
focusing on more new wave and experimental-based work resulting in two of her best-known and
strongest releases -- 1980's Warm Leatherette and 1981's Nightclubbing -- both produced by the noted
reggae team of Sly & Robbie (the latter release spawned one of Jones' biggest hits, "Pull Up to the Bumper,"
as well as covers of Iggy Pop's "Nightclubbing" and the Police's "Demolition Man"). It was also around this
time that Jones changed her look to suit the times by replacing her S&M look of the '70s with a detached,
androgynous image. Jones' sixth solo release overall, Living My Life, followed in 1982, while the singer
took a break from recording to focus on film work and landed roles in such movies as Conan the Destroyer
and the James Bond flick A View to a Kill (Jones' romantic life also provided tabloid fodder at the time when
she was linked with Rocky IV star Dolph Lundgren).

Jones eventually returned back to her recording career, enlisting super-producer Trevor Horn
(Frankie Goes to Hollywood) to oversee 1985's Slave to the Rhythm, which turned out to be a somewhat
autobiographical work (the same year, a ten-track compilation was issued as well, Island Life). Jones' penchant
for working with big-name producers continued on 1986's Inside Story; with production chores handled by Chic's
Nile Rodgers, the album spawned one of Jones' last successful singles, "I'm Not Perfect (But I'm Perfect for You)."
After 1989's Bulletproof Heart, Jones seemed to turn her back on her recording career (although 1993 saw the
release of a new single, "Sex Drive"), as she again focused primarily on movies, including a role in Eddie Murphy's
hit 1992 comedy Boomerang. The double-disc set Private Life: The Compass Point Sessions
(a collection of 26 tracks that Jones recorded with Sly & Robbie during their early '80s union) was released in 1998,
which was followed up four years later with Island Life, Vol. 2.








Single Review (c/o Discogs)



This was a reissue of this classic 80's track, with new remixes by Dancin' Danny D.
Also included is the Blooded mix from the original 12" release from 1985, mixed by Trevor Horn.
ZTT records re-released this as a 2 CD set in 1994, with this cd being CD 1 which is pretty rare
to track down nowadays. Danny D uses some of the original elements, strings etc to great effect
on the intro before he brings his own into it, working grace's strong vocal rather well.
