The record features rhythmic layers enriched by Jimmy Walker’s bongos and Larry Washington’s congas, alongside horn and string contributions from Don Renalde, all supporting Jones’s commanding vocal presence. Tracks like \"Do Or Die\" and \"Am I Ever Gonna Fall In Love In NYC\" showcase a focused listening experience that balances dancefloor energy with soulful depth, inviting you to explore beyond the usual disco pulse. The album’s visual identity, with artwork and illustration by Richard Bernstein and Neil Terk, hints at the bold personality within—a reminder that in Grace’s world, style and substance never part ways. This pressing from 1978 is a vinyl LP offering a solid glimpse into the era’s sound, pressed on Island Records with partial mixing that reflects the production trends of the time. The record condition is \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/shoptheden.com\/blogs\/news\/how-we-grade-vinyl-records-at-the-den\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"\u003eVG\u003c\/a\u003e, meaning it’s fully playable but does show noticeable wear that may introduce some background noise during quieter moments. While not pristine, this copy holds enough clarity to appreciate the album’s intricate arrangements and rhythmic drive. It’s a fine choice for those who want to hear a period piece with a touch of the era’s tactile character—after all, every groove has its story, and this one’s ready to tell it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003csection data-track-listing=\"true\"\u003e\u003ch3\u003eTrack listing \u0026amp; samples\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGrace Jones - Fame\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eSide A\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDo Or Die\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePride\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFame\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eSide B\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAutumn Leaves\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAll On A Summers Night\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAm I Ever Gonna Fall In Love In NYC\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBelow The Belt\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"sample-embeds\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"sample-embed\"\u003e\u003ciframe src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/IkjKYGnfF34\" allowfullscreen loading=\"lazy\" style=\"width:100%;min-height:152px;border:0;border-radius:12px;\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"sample-embed\"\u003e\u003ciframe src=\"https:\/\/open.spotify.com\/embed\/album\/2fSiA5CQAKBQy2wL0CZVpV\" allow=\"encrypted-media\" loading=\"lazy\" style=\"width:100%;min-height:152px;border:0;border-radius:12px;\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/section\u003e","brand":"Den Vinyl","offers":[{"title":"VG \/ VG+ \/ 1978","offer_id":54012769370428,"sku":"DEN00000204","price":12.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0694\/9932\/2684\/files\/OTItMjIzNC5qcGVn.jpg?v=1787440302","url":"https:\/\/shoptheden.com\/products\/grace-jones-fame-lp-082226","provider":"The Den New Hope PA","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
