Slave to the Rhythm by Grace Jones, subtitled a biography in the liner notes, went on to become one of Jones' most commercially successful albums and spawned her biggest hit, Slave to the Rhythm. It performed best in German-speaking countries and the Netherlands, where it secured top 10 placings. It also reached No. 12 on the UK Albums Chart in November 1985. The album remains the second highest-charting album of Jones' on the US Billboard 200 and her only entry on the Canadian Albums Chart. In 1986 Billboard magazine reported that the album had sold 150,000 copies in the US and 1 million worldwide. In 2008, the Slave to the Rhythm cover was included in Jason Draper's book A Brief History of Album Covers, which described it as "glass-shattering", re-configuring the singer's image "as someone much more approachable and full of humor than previously thought."
