    The year was 2002 and I was working in the music section of a Borders. Older guy comes in asking for an album by a new young singer, he didn’t know her name but “she could be a model”. I don’t recall how, but somehow, we made it to this album and that was what he was looking for.

    As a 20 something, it wasn’t my cup of tea and given the Borders crowd’s obsession with it, I was mostly unwilling to be bothered with it. Fast forward 20+ years and I’ve developed a real love of Jones and this album in particular.

    I guess my point is listen to the old people even if they don’t know what they’re talking about.
