Warm Leatherette

Grace Jones

Icy, androgynous vocals floating over heavy Compass Point dub-funk. The sound of high-fashion alienation and late-night urban cool.

It's the coolest record ever made by the coolest person to ever live.

Relentless, confrontational energy with moments of exhausted tenderness.

Moments Worth Waiting For
The mechanical, industrial crunch of the title track's opening synth line
The way the bassline on Love Is the Drug stretches into a seven-minute hypnotic groove
The sudden switch to French on Pars, shifting the mood to something more vulnerable yet still detached
