The newest Rock & Roll Hall of Fame inductee\u2019s groundbreaking multiplatinum third album is granted a 1LP vinyl reissue on 7 June<\/strong><\/h4>\n
On 7 June, A&M\/UMe is set to release Janet Jackson\u2019s iconic mega platinum-selling third album\u00a0Control<\/a><\/em><\/strong>\u00a0on single vinyl in two different colour options: black and translucent red. This will be the first time\u00a0Control<\/em>\u00a0has been reissued on vinyl since the album\u2019s initial release on 4 February 1986, and comes in advance of her hotly anticipated performances at\u00a0Glastonbury Festival<\/strong>\u00a0and\u00a0Montreux Jazz Festival<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Fans who attend Janet\u2019s newly announced Las Vegas residency\u00a0Metamorphosis<\/em>, opening at the Park Theater at Park MGM, will be able to purchase the album at the residency\u2019s store alongside other unmissable merch. Fans can also pre-order the album\u00a0HERE<\/a><\/strong>.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Over the course of its relentlessly catchy and danceable 42 minutes,\u00a0Control<\/em>instantly established Jackson, along with her co-writers\/producers Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis, as perennial pop and R&B innovators. The three of them continued to experiment and break new ground together on a number of subsequent best-selling releases, including 1989\u2019s\u00a0Rhythm Nation 1814\u00a0<\/em>and 1993\u2019s\u00a0janet<\/em>.\u00a0Control<\/em>\u00a0is internationally recognised as a singular fusion of musical styles including rhythm and blues, funk, pop, soul, disco, and modern synthesised percussion.\u00a0Control<\/em>\u00a0also solidified the fact that Janet Jackson had truly arrived as a liberated and noteworthy artist, one who ultimately emerged as a global superstar and a model for independent women the world over.<\/p>\n

Since its debut,\u00a0Control<\/em>\u00a0has sold more than 10 million copies worldwide. Certified Platinum in the UK and 5x Platinum in the United States, the album included four UK Top 20 singles: ‘What Have You Done for Me Lately\u201d, \u201cNasty\u201d, \u201cWhen I Think Of You\u201d and \u201cLet\u2019s Wait Awhile\u201d. In the States, the album made\u00a0Billboard chart history for having the longest continuous run on the Hot 100 with singles from one album, ultimately tallying a remarkable 65 consecutive weeks.<\/p>\n

Ms. Jackson is also gearing up for what promises to be a busy year ahead. Not only was she recently inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame\u2019s Class of 2019, but her Las Vegas Residency, evocatively dubbed\u00a0Metamorphosis<\/em>, begins in May and is currently scheduled to run for 15 performances in total through August.<\/p>\n

Janet Jackson\u2019s\u00a0Control\u00a0<\/em>is a career-defining statement from a singular artist, one who did it her way to handily prove that a visionary album with many hot, nasty grooves is quite worthy of aural revisitation on high-grade vinyl.<\/p>\n
