GRACE JONES

Hello and welcome back.......Born in Jamaica, Grace Jones ( Grace Mendoza) started as a Model before becoming an Actress and Singer.

Her talent and striking looks got her a record deal and various acting roles including a James Bond movie "A View to a Kill".

For me personally, I love Grace Jones.... Her look is awesome with the flat top ( I had a flat top once) making her stand out from other singers at that time.
Grace often mixes fashion with modeling....Yes folks, she has style
Her music is often suited for Clubs with luscious beats and that voice, what a Voice..... Smooth and focused. Outstanding.

Grace Jones has released about 10 albums and a slather of singles.
Some of my favorite singles from Grace are "Private life", "I've Seen that Face Before", "Pull up to the Bumper", "Slave to the Rhythm" &... "Walking in the Rain" which is my stand out song with sultry synths and a singing style that leaves you with chills.

Grace Jones has once quoted = Now when I enter a carriage, it almost empties. But there's always one brave enough to stay.




What an amazing artist.

MURRAY HEAD - ONE NIGHT IN BANGKOK (lost hit)

Hello and welcome back.... From the 1985 musical "Chess" comes this one and only hit from "Murray Head".
The music from 'Chess" was composed by former ABBA singers Benny & Bjorn.
Thailand's Mass Communications Organization banned One Night in Bangkok, saying its lyrics "cause misunderstanding about Thai society and show disrespect towards Buddhism.

Love listening to this song on a good set of headphones, sounds magic.
