Quelques années avant la parution du cultissime Nightclubbing (1981), Grace Jones était déjà la Reine de la nuit. Disponibles le 4 mai prochain en coffret 3-CDs ou 4-LPs, ses trois premiers albums, Portfolio (1977), Fame (1978) et Muse (1979) sont réunis dans la bien-nommée Disco Box. Ces nouvelles éditions proposeront également des remixes de Tom Moulton, des versions extended et de nombreux instrumentaux. De quoi voir à nouveau La vie en rose !
