Inside Story is Grace Jones's eighth studio album, and her first with the Manhattan Records label. It was also her first time working with producer Nile Rodgers. The album spawned the singles "I'm Not Perfect (But I'm Perfect for You)", "Victor Should Have Been a Jazz Musician", "Crush", and "Party Girl".
The artwork for the album cover was designed by Richard Bernstein, who had previously worked with Jones on the albums Muse, Fame, and Portfolio. This album is notable for being Jones' first foray into production, a role she would again assume on 1989's Bulletproof Heart, which resulted in frequent, heated clashes with Rodgers.
A remastered edition of the album was released in 2004 on EMI Records. (Note: Copy protected)
