The recent Meltdown show was an event plain & simple. Grace was on form vocally, she messed with the audience, kept us waiting several times while she changed costumes & had virtually everyone on their feet. It wasn't the slickest show Ive seen, there were times when I thought it was all going horribly wrong but you have to try to understand the magic that is created when Grace hits the stage. There were lasers, costume changes galore, effects, videos & wind machines - you name it but none of this stuff matters, Grace Jones is simply awe inspiring & I doubt she even understands why herself, she is a true Icon & to say she is unique is an understatement. I long to hear the album & I have a feeling that 2008 may be the kick start that Grace needs to propel her back to the status she so truly deserves.
