Album Notes & Community Reviews

Marking the conclusion of her Tom Moulton-produced disco trilogy, 'Muse' heavily leans into grand, theatrical orchestrations and lush, continuous medleys. Grace Jones delivers her signature icy, detached vocal performances over flawless, studio-perfected dance grooves. The record serves as a glamorous, highly stylish finale before her radical transition into post-punk and new wave in the ensuing decade.
