LENNY KRAVITZ NO ES UNO MÁS DEL MONTÓN. Estamos sentados en Bemelmans, el icónico bar del histórico Hotel Carlyle en el Upper East Side. Aquí, todo se hace de una manera muy propia. Y así ha sido desde 1947. Los meseros usan abrigos blancos. Los cocteles se sirven exclusivamente en copas de cristal personalizadas, y llegan en charolas de plata. Hay tazones elegantes llenos de sofisticadas botanas que adornan cada mesa. Los murales de Ludwig Bemelmans -del famoso libro para niños, Madelinedecoran las paredes. Y algunos de los pianistas más celebrados del jazz del país siguen tocando cada noche. Es un lugar sinónimo del glamour neoyorquino old-school. Probablemente también es el último lugar donde esperarías ver a un aclamado dios del rock durante un día cualquiera.
Pero aquí es donde Kravitz quería reunirse, así que aquí estamos. Son las tres de la tarde en un día muy lluvioso de Yom Kippur; los restos de la tormenta tropical Ophelia siguen en las calles de Manhattan, y la audiencia -más escasa que nunca- está bebiendo martinis casi de manera exclusiva. Kravitz, que se está quedando en el departamento de Brooklyn de su hija mientras ella está en su hogar de París, se ve como si viniera directamente de 1975. Con una chamarra de cuero café hecha a la medida, un cuello de tortuga y pantalones acampanados. Sus emblemáticas rastas están acomodadas en una media coleta, y sus anillos dorados colocados perfectamente en sus dedos. Llega y pide un té verde caliente.
