Janet West

"Control: The Remixes" (issued as "More Control" in Japan) is the 1st remix album (and 4th album overall) by American recording artist Janet Jackson. Released on January 26, 1987 in the United Kingdom, continental Europe, and Japan only, it contains remixes of singles from "Control", following the success of the album. Several of the remixes, notably "When I Think of You" and "Control", were the versions featured in their respective music videos. Most of the remixes were also available as B-sides to the original versions.

With her sleek bob haircut (usually with a flower placed just so), vintage fashion sense, strikingly beautiful looks and artfully customized ukulele, Janet Klein might seem at first to be a simple novelty act, a 21st-century hipster "ironically" recreating the subtly naughty looks of a fin-de-siecle French postcard. Then she opens her mouth to sing. There's no Betty Boop hiccups or Mae West-style brassiness in her charmingly original voice. And when she starts to play her ukulele, it's clear that this oft-ridiculed cousin of the guitar is neither prop nor gimmick, but a delightful and under-utilized musical instrument. Bearing an ever-expanding repertoire of, as she puts it, "obscure, lovely and naughty songs from the 1910's , 20's and 30's," Janet Klein is a musical archeologist hiding in the body of an F. Scott Fitzgerald heroine.

A swinging cross-country romp. Fresh, innovative arrangements of standard and obscure compositions celebrating sites, cities and landscape across the U.S. Experience the voice Jazziz describes as “amazingly powerful, with seemingly limitless expression."
