Description
From daughter of a preacher man to empress of New York nightlife, Grace Jones has spent her career challenging, scintillating and titillating listeners, audiences and baffled onlookers, with panache like no other. Andy and Drew meet underneath the disco balls of Manhattan, dancing through Grace's early greatest hits, before skipping thirty years ahead to a decade-in-the-making comeback, recorded in the heady hills of Jamaica. Through 1985’s ‘Island Life’ and 2008’s ‘Hurricane’, we tackle one of the few pop culture icons who can lay genuine claim to the title of, well, ‘icon’.
