Oh, I've got that and forgot it.

MG

you've actually got a Grace Jones album?

Really. I find that hard to believe.

Is this a side of MG we don't know about?

If I were a jazz fan...

But what I like is commercial black music, some of which is a bit like jazz.

And I have 2 of her albums. This is the other one; very interesting.

Actually of course I should have guessed that MG.

And yes these are very savvy records no doubt.

May I enquire if you have Michael Jackson's Off The Wall or Diana Ross's 'I'm Coming Out' :)

Any Chic era sounds of Nile Rodgers and Bernard Evans - kinda happened at the same time as 'scary Grace' :D

No - never really dug any of the Motown superstars. Nor Nile Rogers. I just have a couple of Stevie Wonders, 'What's going on' and a few Jr Walkers.

In a sense, I thought over dinner, it was probably more a question of what I was doing in the 80s. Looking back through my purchases at the time, I was getting a hell of a lot of jazz stuff, by mail order from Mole Jazz in London and Bill Carraro in NY, and gospel, also by mail order, from Sailor Vernon in London, then Ernie's in Nashville. So I seldom had to visit a record shop for almost the whole decade and I'd given up listening to the radio for ideas on music to buy in 1959. And stuff passed me by until it was probably too late and I couldn't be bothered because I was deeply into west African stuff. So much music, so little time...
