Product Description

Amazon.co.uk Review

More prolific than D'Angelo and Terence Trent D'Arby combined, one-man rock & soul revivalist Lenny Kravitz kept traditional pop values alive through much of the 1990s. From the Motown-perfect "It Ain't Over Til It's Over" to the Beatlesque "Let Love Rule", Kravitz has always inhabited his influences with a genuine spirit that transcends imitation. The 15 tracks found on Greatest Hits provide a surprisingly coherent reminder of just how much the artist has accomplished in a relatively short time. And even if "Are You Gonna Go My Way" falls short of its Hendrix target, Kravitz's cover of the Guess Who's "American Woman" still rocks in a pleasingly Neanderthal way. An infectious new cut, "Again", fits neatly alongside sturdy Kravitz originals like "Fly Away", "Mr. Cab Driver" and "Black Velveteen", showcasing a talent whose post-modern pop should play well into the new century. --Bill Forman


CD Description

This album features fifteen singles by the New York-born, Hendrix influenced singer-songwriter guitarist. The track 'Again' has not appeared on any other Lenny Kravitz album. 'Greatest Hits' includes nine UK top 40 hits.

5.0 out of 5 stars Stumbled upon a classic album, 19 Feb 2001
A few months ago, I was trying to think who sung that song 'Fly Away'. I soon found out it was Lenny himself and knew that I loved his song 'Are You Gonna Go my Way' aswell. I had some extra cash lying around that I wanted to spend on music so I thought, what the hell and bought this album. I wasn't at all sure what to expect, because I had only heard of two of his songs before, the two mentioned, so it was kind of a stab in the dark.

I'll say now that I am thoroughly glad I did purchase this. I was highly pleased with every single song on this CD, I particularly like American Woman, Rock and Roll is Dead, Mr Cab Driver and Always on the Run.

Lenny does a great job and this CD definitely does hold his greatest hits. It's certainly worth buying, even if you're not a particularly huge fan. I wasn't, but this album changed that. If you liked his more famous 'Are you Gonna go my Way' and 'Fly Away', you will most definitely like all the other songs on this album. Easily worth a high position on your CD rack.

4.0 out of 5 stars Let Rock N' Roll Rule, 25 Jan 2004
By S. Wright (Sheffield, England.) - See all my reviews
(TOP 500 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)   
Love him or hate him, Lenny Kravitz is pure rock...well, kind of. He is when he wants to be, but he also has a fine ability in showing and adding soul, pop and even a drop of reggae to his own brand of rock n' roll. And whether you like it or not, there's no denying the infectiousness of Kravitz's work.

It's certainly work to be proud of, as not only is it great rock, but it's also genre-busting music. Although for the majority of the time, Kravitz sticks to pure rock (and why not?), that doesn't stop him indulging in funk (the fine 'Black Velveteen') , dreamy pop (The hit single, 'Fly Away', which you'd have had to have been living under the worlds largest rock in the late 90's to have not heard), reggae beats ('I Belong To You') and most interestingly of all the perfect Motown stylings of 'It Ain't Over 'Til It's Over', which wouldn't have gone amiss in an early 70's dance compilation...but he always excelled at his funky rock, as proves the riffy, almost Hendrix-for-the-90's, 'Rock And Roll Is Dead', the surging, 'Are You Gonna Go My Way', the driving-in-the-slow-lane of, 'Again', the raunchy, 'American Woman' and the head-bobbingly good, 'Mr. Cab Driver', all provide as highlights amongst tough competition.

While right in the middle of it all, 'Heaven Help', a piano led ballad, threatens to break things down a little, with Kravitz's 'Greatest Hits' you're guarenteed one of the greatest rock n' roll compilations of latter days that you'll find. And although he does delve into tacky ideas while perhaps trying to rehash his influences ('Stand By My Woman'), and though it'll all never really influences anything, the majority of his work here will stand the test of time and that's all that really matters with Lenny Kravitz. That, and to have a damn good time.

4 Stars.

5.0 out of 5 stars a brilliant cross generic music album blend of musical style, 11 Sep 2002
This still remains at the very top of my CD rack! I love this CD, on a simple fluke purchase on the basis of the few songs I knew I found myself coming across a brilliant cross generic music album, the guy is so cool. often compared to Jimi Hendrix, Lenny Kravitz is our modern day mr cool with a brilliant blend of musical styles, ballads and anthems this is an album to get!

4.0 out of 5 stars A worthy effort and "Are You Gonna Go My Way" is worth every
I've had a kind of love-hate relationship with Lenny Kravitz. Being in my 50's I am predisposed to his type of music because it is very much rooted in the early 70's rock scene. Read more
