Grace Jones regally reclaimed her crown in 2008 with the release of “Hurricane”, her first album in nearly two decades, and the proof that she still is the queen of outlandish sophisticated glamour with attitude. The sultry and dramatic “Williams Blood” is the first cut set to glide up the hit parade, as it soars on sweeping strings, classy piano and those all important rhythms that complement the distinctive tones of Ms Jones. Aeroplane are up first at the mixing desk, delivering an A-list spellbinding Balearic builder that works the song into sizzling electronic overload, colliding 1988 into 2009 with mind blowing results. Mad Professor has a skank up and a dub session in the echo chamber, while Greg Wilson gets down with the freaks under the mirrorball. Thee diva has returned.
