Marc Almond collaborated with PAUL BUCK on his "Jacques" album, recorded between 1986 and 1989. Paul Buck acted as translator on most of the songs, which were produced by Almond and Charles Gray. Most of the musicians were Almonds then backing group, known as the Willing Sinners plus Gray on keyboard. Although "Amsterdam" is not included, it is a live favourite of the singer, who often performs it "a cappella", and an excellent rendition can be found on his "Sin Songs" live DVD (Demon Vision DEMONDVD002).
