  • Hard News: Review: Lana Del Rey, 'Born…, in reply to bob daktari,

    I know. It was a bit of a surprise. Hame has hugely eclectic taste – music is his everything really – and he’s always trying to get me to broaden my musical horizons. His trick is that he always throws in something I am bound to love - like Jose James so I have to listen to it all to sort the wheat from the chaff. I didn’t like much on that list – all a bit alt or rock-y for me. But I thought others would enjoy the selection.

    I'm an admirer of jaunty. It not only lifts the spirits, it's also a great pace for walking.
