GRACE JONES - MUSE (1979)
AMG Review:
'A fine dance and club album, Grace Jones was still essentially a disco act when she recorded this album at the end of the '70s. The campy tendencies and flat vocals were subordinated to the array of cross-rhythms, textures, and production devices buttressing the tracks. Jones did some outstanding numbers during this era, but seldom utilized her voice beyond either a decorative or supporting role. She wasn't (and still isn't) a soulful or great singer, but future albums would demonstrate that she could do more things than mouth lines and insert herself into rhythm tracks. '
I must say, In my opinion this is her greatest album except for Hurricane (2008).
Grace Jones - Muse
Tomorrow, her early eighties albums.
