(To be more precise, she credits Jack A. with her change in critical fortune… although it seems like Lust for Life was pretty well-received)

Blue Banisters is her (un?)intentional Joni Mitchell masterpiece.

it's odd that BB holds together as an album as well as it does considering it's mostly (all?) outtakes

It’s about half outtakes, and yeah it’s still my absolute favorite (even allowing for Tunnel’s greatness), and speaks to the power of serendipity (or whatever). As a side note, Antonoff didn’t happen to touch that one…

yeah I think he deserves some credit but she's selling herself short, she also became a better singer and songwriter by the time NFR happened.

The interviewer in that THR piece brings up songwriting in the next question, but Lana sort of brushes it off…

She released music first under her own name, as Lizzy Grant. But when that failed to chart, she chose a stage name and a new look
this isn't quite accurate, but whatevs

Blue Bannisters is an underrated album

Huh, I guess she's not engaged anymore(?) It sounds like she's not in a relationship. Anyway, not much about music in the profile.

Pretty poor article, all ‘what is her game, this is all a facade type bs”. She looks great in the photos though.

It’s a little funny how much the writer frets about Lana’s house being “stage managed” (or whatever), when she straight-up says in that Hollywood Reporter interview from September: “I bought this fucking couch for this photo shoot. It’s fire.”

is Lana single why because her new photos look intersting

I think a dozen years in folks would stop trying to be suspicious of her and her persona, I think it's really not much of a mystery anyway. Finally bought Ultraviolence on vinyl yesterday, think it might be a lesser pressing but it sounds good nonetheless.
