In the background at the start of video, there is a guy in a polka dot shirt seen for a few seconds. That is David Spada. He designed parts of Grace's outfit and was known creating "gay pride rings" (multicolored metal rings that where very popular at one point). I dated him at one point, he died at the very young age of 34 from A.I.D.S. He was ABSOLUTELY TERRIFIED of passing it on to me even while being "safe" (which shows what kind of guy he was). Seeing this video just got me choked up, even after all this time.

Thank you for your kind words! David and I were good friends in the 80's and I made several videos for him. You and I may have met! The necklace you're talking about was called "Freedom Rings", and David even wrote and sang a song about them called "Let Freedom Rings" which I have on another video. I have to get those other videos on KZbin. I'm working on it a little at a time. I still have a bracelet he made for me. I even got to help make some of the Freedom Rings, and made a video about how they were made. David said that the Freedom Rings were being ordered all around the world and they were a huge success financially. I miss him too! Again, Thank You and Best Wishes to You.

Spada designed and fabricated several costumes, headdresses and accessories for Grace Jones that were worn by her in performances. Spada’s clients included Madonna, Nina Hagen and Grace Jones who performed in his apparel highlighted by body paint applied by Haring. His work also featured in Vogue Magazine, Elle USA and Harpers Bazaar US. Just before his death, his “Absolut Spada'' design was used nationally for an Absolut Vodka US campaign.

Grace Jones was definitely ahead of time. Many years ago I thought that she was just eccentric. But now I realize she is a brilliant and talented artist with her own individual style that has been imitated by many other artists, including Lady Gaga.

I was at this show. I stood on a garbage can to see the performances. It was unreal. Grace was other worldly. She had her dancers strip her button naked on stage and then dress her in a cat suit. She performed Slave To The Rhythm and I've Seen that Face Before. It was worth every penny of the admission price.

You couldn’t see that stuff these days, at least not with majorly famous names and with everyone with a cell phone recording it wouldn’t be done. Either the label would censor them or they would do it themselves. Losing some of the magic and gutsiness.
