Number 92 - Lenny Kravitz 'Mama Said'

In 1992, there were a number of albums that got some serious rotation on my tape deck. Lenny Kravitz's 'Mama Said' was definitely one of them. The first time I heard 'It ain't over till its over' I realised that there was a lot of music out there to appreciate (having being focused on Pearl Jam, Ice Cube, NWA, Nirvana, Red Hot Chilli Peppers mainly). A good school friend gave me a stack of stuff to listen to that I had heard, but never really listened to. Things like 'The Doors', 'Jimi Hendrix', and even 'Led Zeppelin'. Lenny Kravitz's early albums ('Mama Said' and 'Let Love Rule') were the closest thing to hippy psychedelic rock that was around. And listening to other classics of similar vein seemed a natural progression. To think I may have spent my life never listening to 'The End' by The Doors - thats just damn scary.

This album is solid from beginning to end, and a CD that seems to have gone for a walk from my CD collection - proof that I am not the only person to like this CD!
