	Grace Jones
		Interestingly, Jones, a Jamaican born artist, was actively working in the Parisian fashion world as a model at the time she moved into performance art.
		The multiple personas of Grace Jones ranged widely from overly sexualized dance performances in which she donned a gorilla or tiger suit to very masculinized self-representations.
		Both these modes of representation in Jones' work, as hyper-sexualized animal and instances of cross-dressing have been related to Josephine Baker's performances, more specifically, her "jungle" performances in banana and tusk skirts and the famous photographs of Baker in a top hat and tuxedo (Kershaw 21).

		Grace Jones rarely recorded in the mid to late 1980's and infact you could probably argue that her recording career reached its peak with the Trevor Horn produced Slave To The Rhythm album in 1985.
		Grace Jones' final studio album to date is of a mixed bag of pure pop genius, but at the same time, also a victim of the 80's love of synthesizers and soulless percussion work.
		Grace Jones was somewhat of an Icon in the 80's, and her work with Sly Dunbar and Robbie Shakespeare of the early 80's is highly regarded, and her epic "Slave to the Rhythm," produced an envisioned by Trevor Horn, is every bit as influential and stunning.

	::Classic Hall Of Fame::Grace Jones
		Jones' statuesque and flamboyant look proved to be a hit in the New York City nightclub scene, which led to a recording contract with Island Records in 1977.
		Jones' sixth solo release overall, Living My Life, followed in 1982, while the singer took a break from recording to focus on film work and landed roles in such movies as Conan the Destroyer and the James Bond flick A View to a Kill.
		Jones eventually returned back to her recording career, enlisting super-producer Trevor Horn (Frankie Goes to Hollywood) to oversee 1985's Slave to the Rhythm, which turned out to be a somewhat autobiographical work (the same year, a ten-track compilation was issued as well, Island Life).
