Grace Jones "Ultimate Collection"



This is the ultimate! It touches on all things Grace from her early disco days ("I Need A Man"), her reggae/new wave genius period (generous portions of all three of great albums, "Warm Leatherette", "Nightclubbing" and "Living My Life") to poppier stuff like "I'm Not Perfect..." and even her mindless nineties club track, "Sex Drive". The third CD picks up nearly all the bonus stuff from "The Compass Point Sessions"). I got it new at Tower.com for only $20.99 (they had a sale and I put it my cart at that price but it has since went back up to $40 something!

I think it's time for me to get an updated Grace Jones compilation.The one that I have is called 'Island Life'.Released in 1985,it's a very skimpy compilation that doesn't contain many songs that I like by her ("Nipple To The Bottle"....."I'm Not Perfect But I'm Perfect For You"....etc).

This one is as complete as you can get but does not feature all the singles ("Muse"'s single was "On Your Knees", which is as good as any of the other disco songs included). This one is very nice if you can find it for a good price. $50 is a bit much!

The only Grace album that haven`t been released on cd is the "Muse" album, i`d rather see that one get a release. I paid quite a lot for the "Fame" album though, the others are cheaper

That sucks because "Don't Mess With the Messer" is a great track (as is "On Your Knees", the official single which isn't on the collection).
