34/100 Video - "Slave To The Rhythm" - Grace Jones (1985)

I stumbled upon this video the year it was released one Friday night on a late night program. Like really late. In real time, I think I only saw it played twice.

It makes sense.  

"Slave To The Rhythm" by Jamaican-born Grace Jones is one badass video from the 80's. It's adventurous, amusing, bizarre, warm and provocative. 


I'm not going to give away any details, but there over a hundred imaginative clips. Some are things that you make you go "hmmmmm"

You just gotta hit play.

The tune itself is equally stunning, a smooth groove you can dance to or enjoy Trevor Horn's mind-blowing production (also see: Frankie's Welcome to the Pleasure Dome album).
