"Just one of the best ever. The combination of her brilliant vocal approach with the Compass Point All-Stars has never been equalled and Hurricane is one of the most underrated albums of the decade! Happy birthday, Grace."

Jeremy Shatan commented on Afro-Punk's blog post AP History Month: Grace Jones Is Punk As Hell!"You don't have to tell me - Hurricane is one of my favorite albums of the last decade. It's a damn shame it was never properly released in this country. Grace is a true original!"

Jeremy Shatan commented on Strip Tease's blog post Strip Tease: Prince"Fantastic work - and I'm not even the biggest Prince fan (I tend to think he starting falling off after Dirty Mind)! Can you do Sly Stone next??"
