Grace Jones: Island Life
Originally released in 1985, Island Life compiles highlights from Grace Jones’ 1977 debut through 1985’s Slave To The Rhythm. It’s a concise overview that features four Top Ten U.S. club hits (“I Need a Man,” “Do or Die,” “Pull Up to the Bumper,” “Slave to the Rhythm”), as well as an additional smattering of choice cuts from her late-‘70s collaborations with Tom Moulton and her stellar ‘80s work with Sly & Robbie. It’s a decent introduction for casual fans but lacks crucial material like “Warm Leatherette” and “Nipple to the Bottle.” A later edition, dubbed Island Life 2, adds “Pars,” “Feel Up,” and two remixes of “Sex Drive.”
