Janet Jackson – Control
Released in 1986 on A&M Records and produced by Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis, Control is one of the most important and influential albums in the history of pop and R&B. Janet's third studio album and her first true artistic statement, it announced her independence — from her family, from her label, from expectations — and in doing so created a blueprint for the empowered female pop star that resonates to this day. It reached #1 in the US, sold over 10 million copies worldwide, and spawned five US Top 10 singles. On vinyl, the Jam & Lewis production sounds extraordinary — warm, funky, and full of detail. Also in stock: the companion Control: The Remixes (1987).
Stand-Out Tracks
- "What Have You Done for Me Lately" – The lead single and a seismic moment in pop history — a US Top 5 and UK Top 3 hit that announced Janet's arrival as a fully formed, independent artist.
- "Nasty" – One of the defining R&B singles of the decade, a strutting, self-assured funk track that reached the US Top 3 and remains as powerful today as it was in 1986.
- "When I Think of You" – Janet's first US #1 single, a joyful, irresistible pop-funk track that showcases the lighter, more playful side of the album.
- "The Pleasure Principle" – A driving, percussion-heavy funk track and US Top 15 hit that became one of the era's most iconic music videos.
- "Let's Wait Awhile" – A tender, emotionally mature ballad and US Top 3 hit that demonstrates the album's remarkable range and Janet's vocal depth.
