Warm Leatherette is the fourth studio album by Grace Jones, released on 9 May 1980 by Island Records. The album features contributions from the reggae production duo Sly and Robbie and is a departure from Jones' earlier disco sound, moving towards a new wave-reggae direction. Although having established herself as a performer with a string of club hits in the US and a large gay following, Jones had only achieved very modest commercial success with her first three disco albums.

1-1. Warm Leatherette. Written-By – D. Miller. 2-1, 2-10 and 2-11 listed as previously unreleased tracks. Comes in a leatherette covered lift off lid box with inner sleeves for the two CDs and a thick carton booklet with photos and a long essay. The picture on the box is made of matted paper. An obi with spine and back cover with tracklist is also included.

Warm Leatherette, Grace Jones’ career-shifting 1980 release, gives a glimpse of the artist just as her true genius was coming into sharp focus. Recorded at Compass Point Studios in Nassau, Bahamas, the album finds Jones working alongside Island Records’ then president, Chris Blackwell, and producer Alex Sadkin. Her backing band-which she would lovingly describe as the united nations in the studio’’-included Sly and Robbie as her rhythm section, as well as a crack team of session musicians that involved keyboardist Wally Badarou, guitarists, Mikey Mao Chung and Barry White Reynolds, and percussionist Uziah Sticky Thompson.

The album is different from Jones' first three albums as they were mainly disco and R&B. This album had reggae and electronica sounds

Exclusive discount for Prime members. Sample this album Artist (Sample). 1. 30. This album, in addition to Nightclubbing, is timeless. Her sound was and still is very much ahead of its time. The only songs that were not particularly interesting for me were Breakdown and Pars. Nevertheless, they're still great songs. Collectively, this album is her best or at least a close tie to Nightclubbing. Nightclubbing probably gets more attention because it contains her epic classics Pull Up to the Bumper, I've Seen that Face Before, and Walking in the Rain.

Grace Jones teamed with the great reggae production duo of Sly Dunbar and Robbie Shakespeare on this 1980 album, and made the transition from straight dance and club act into quasi-pop star with reggae and urban contemporary leanings. The single "Private Life" was one of her best, and the overall album had more energy and production gloss than previous LPs that had been aimed completely at the club market. It helped that Jones seemed enthused about the session and really put herself into the songs.
