Released in 1985, Slave to the Rhythm is the seventh studio album from the incomparable singer, songwriter, producer, artist, actress, supermodel and provocateur, Ms. Grace Jones.
Called “a biography” in the liner notes, the record is a concept album, with each of the eight tracks featuring excerpts from a spoken interview with journalist Paul Morley.
It was produced by major league producer and ZTT Records founder Trevor Horn, a.k.a. “The Man Who Invented the Eighties.”
Its a sonic treat along the lines of Frankie Goes to Hollywood's first album (produced by Horn). It was possible the first remix LP with several different takes on the one track ranging from slick R&B runaway grooves to striking audio montages, interrupted occasionally by conversation about Jones's life. Serious ear candy.
