“We all need to have music in our lives – every day if you can. Great medicine and takes you to a different place.” – Vanessa Gomez
A big Welcome to Vanessa Gomez to A Frankie View.
What music are you currently listening to?
I listen to everything – I appreciate all music. Lovin the oldies at the moment – Edge of Seventeen by Stevie Nicks is one of my favourite songs
CD, Streaming or Vinyl?
Cd and streaming.
What, if push comes to shove, is your all time favorite album?
Ooooh so many but I really do love The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill and never get bored listening to it.
Great album.
Yes. Shes a great lyricist and she sings from the soul.
Pity she never done more.
I know. I saw her live a couple of years ago and she was amazing.
What was the first record you ever brought? And where did you buy it?
Gosh, I don’t remember. But I did get very excited about a pop song performed by snowmen when I was very young. It was a 7 inch and I’m pretty sure I did buy it lol.
I loved music from a young age as mum and dad loved it. Anything from Abba, Boney M to lots of cringe-worthy flamenco.
What do you sing in the shower?
Recently I’ve been singing Blinding Lights by The Weeknd.
What is your favorite Saturday night record?
That would be candy – only cos I’m learning the dance.

Cameo you must know them!

At the moment this one J Balvin – Safari ft. Pharrell Williams, BIA, Sky they work so well togerher
Nice, its funny years ago I was not a fan of Spanish, South American Hip hop, just thought it wasn’t great, but it has gotten so much better.
Its very commercial now and is a huge part of the record industry.

I just googled it lol Isaac Hayes, theme from Shaft by the look of it. This explains why im so cool.

Oasis.
Erykah Badu or lauryn hill?
Lauryn – I’ve seen both live.
Abba or Boney M?
Abba – lovem

Bob Marley but to be honest I haven’t listened to much of Dylan
