Earlier today, I chatted with Jake Shears. Enjoy our full exchange below:
1. What’s the inspiration behind Night Work‘s cover art?
Many people think that’s my rear end but it’s actually a Mapplethorpe photo of Peter Reed. I wanted this album to be dedicated to all the men of the ’80s. All the creative people who died of AIDS. I thought a lot about that time period. People were very liberated before the party got killed. Mapplethorpe’s photographs represent the beauty and the tragedy of it all.
2. What was it like to work alongside Stuart Price?
I’ve known Stuart for a long time. He’s always been a really good friend. We’re all huge fans of his. I love his remixes and I also love his personality. We were in Berlin and Stuart told us that he’d drop everything to make a record with us. His enthusiasm knocked me off my feet. We started working together three weeks later. It’s heaven to work with him. I never want to make a record without him! He’s not only a genius but he’s also so full of love & creativity. He also has the sickest/darkest sense of humor. He’s twisted. We also share a major love of club music. It was great spending time with him.
