'Fresh Air' Programming Note - Lenny Kravitz

I was listening to my local NPR station while getting ready for work this morning. During Morning Edition there was a promo for Fresh Air with Terry Gross. Today, the show will revisit a conversation with Lenny Kravitz and take a look at his music journey. I thought this sounded like it was worth a listen and I wanted to share. Terry Gross is probably the best interviewer in the country. This is a long-form interview and is nearly 40 minutes.

TODAY: We're revisiting our interview with @LennyKravitz. He talks about how he struggled to find his musical voice, and turned down multiple record deals. It wasn’t until he met Lisa Bonet that he found the music he wanted to write. https://t.co/hnwcl0bakZ

Not much of an NPR-sorta' guy (esp. since "Delicious Dish" went off the air). But I did sit through a lecture--which was, by turns, smarmy, ponderous, and engaging--by Ira Glass of This American Life. Does that count?

Kravitz is an interesting dude. I bet his life story is certainly interesting. no less that of his wife, Bonet. Any tidbits worth sharing, Allyson?

“All Things Considered” alone is worth the price of admission, HIM …

Which is free …

Though I do admit NPR ain’t what it used to be primarily because of defunding and gerrymandering of the editorial board courtesy by those wonderful people who brought you Steve Bannon and the like …
