Grace Jones / Disco box set

Grace Jones’ first three albums for Island Records, Portfolio (1977), Fame (1978) and Muse (1979) have been remastered and expanded and this May will be brought together under one roof for Disco, a brand new three-CD or four-LP box set.

The Tom Moulton produced albums are all appended with bonus remixes and instrumentals (some previously unreleased) on the CD edition of Disco, while the vinyl box maintains the original track listings and offers a fourth record, Singles that collects mainly long versions of the 45s from this era.

The full CD track listing with all the bonus material will also be issued on one hi-res blu-ray audio disc which, like the other formats, comes with a 32-page booklet with new notes.

Disco is released on 4 May 2015.
