Born May 19, 1952, in Kingston, Jamaica, Jones studied dramaturgy at Syracuse University earlier launching a vocation as a pretence. Jones' baronial and flamboyant face proven to be a hit in the New York City night club panorama, which lED to a recording focus with Island Records in 1977. While such disco-based albums as 1977's Portfolio, 1978's Fame, and 1979's Muse failed to crack the singer commercially, Jones before long amassed a solid following amongst gay workforce with her sexually charged live point, leading to her title at the time of "Queen of the Gay Discos." Simply with the dawn of the '80s came a massive anti-disco movement across the U.S., preeminent to Jones focusing on more new moving ridge and experimental-based work resulting in two of her best-known and strongest releases -- 1980's Warm Leatherette and 1981's Nightclubbing -- both produced by the far-famed reggae team of Sly & Robbie (the latter release spawned one of Jones' biggest hits, "Displume Up to the Bumper," as well as covers of Iggy Pop's "Nightclubbing" and the Police's "Demolition Man"). It was too around this fourth dimension that Jones changed her look to courting the times by replacement her S&M see of the '70s with a detached, androgynous mental image. Jones' sixth solo spill boilers suit, Living My Life, followed in 1982, patch the singer took a go from recording to focus on film ferment and landed roles in such movies as Conan the Destroyer and the James Bond flick A View to a Kill (Jones' wild-eyed life besides provided sheet fodder at the time when she was linked with Rocky IV whiz Dolph Lundgren). Daniel Jones finally returned back to her recording calling, recruitment super-producer Trevor Horn (Frankie Goes to Hollywood) to manage 1985's Slave to the Rhythm, which turned out to be a middling autobiographic work (the like year, a ten-track digest was issued as easily, Island Life). Jones' taste for functional with big-name producers continued on 1986's Inside Story; with production chores handled by Chic's Nile Rodgers, the album spawned i of Jones' terminal successful singles, "I'm Not Perfect (Simply I'm Perfect for You)." After 1989's Bulletproof Heart, Jones seemed to turn her back on her recording life history (although 1993 saw the release of a new single, "Sexual urge Drive"), as she over again focused primarily on movies, including a role in Eddie Murphy's hit 1992 comedy Backfire. The double-disc set up Individual Life: The Compass Point Sessions (a compendium of 26 tracks that Jones recorded with Sly & Robbie during their early '80s trade union) was released in 1998, which was followed up four-spot years later with Island Life, Vol. 2.
