grace jones was influenced by lennox? wasn't she around before her?



you know to tell you the truth i was even unsure of that when i wrote it. did she come before annie lennox or vice versa. does anyone know? even still they do remind me of each other!


from wiki:


Jones secured a record deal with Island Records in 1977, which resulted in a string of dance club hits and a large gay following. The three disco albums she recorded — Portfolio (1977), Fame (1978), and Muse (1979) — generated considerable success in that market.


and then:

Grace Jones' masculine attire, height (5' 10½" (1.79 m)) and manner was a clear influence on the 'power dressing' movement of the 1980s, and on musical artists such as Annie Lennox of Eurythmics and Claudie Fritsch-Mentrop of Desireless.
