Yes indeed, it is THE Traci Lords, porn queen extraordinaire. During her rise to fame as a porn goddess, many music producers and labels tried to cash in on her notoriety, wanting to make her into a rock goddess a la Lita Ford or Lee Aaron. But Traci, even through her drug induced haze, knew that was not the direction that she wanted to go in. She did not make music during her porn career, and it wasn't until after, when she was being recognized for legitimate acting roles in Melrose Place and Cry Baby, that she decided to finally make her mark in the music world. But she chose to record a full on techno album, thanks to her love of dance music, a very risky proposition considering the style was dominated by men. But with the help of techno god Juno Reactor and the reborn Thompson Twins, as Babble, she succeeded in recording a very impressive dance album. Her voice isn't exactly perfect, but it works over the dark, dancey beats that permeate the album, and her girlish voice works especially well on the trippier, moodier tracks, especially the shocking "Father's Field". Of course, such a risky album was not exactly made to garner success on the pop charts, and it didn't. But it became a critical success, perhaps the first in Traci's career. She has recorded a bit since, and I, for one, long for her next musical masterpiece.Video for Control
