Lenny Kravitz has released a new CD "It is Time for a Love Revolution, Baby Why Don't You Rock with Me Like We Did in the 70s!" (ok, that last part is not part of the title, but it could be.) Lenny has been playing several of these new songs in recent gigs and they are excellent. I saw Lenny and his band live in San Francisco in November and it was one of the best shows in a long time. If you like classic Rock with a R&B groove, you'll love this album. Best of all you can listen to it on VH1 and decide for yourself. (I'm not sure how long this "leaked" version will be available, so check it out.) Alternatively, there are several live songs on Yahoo.
Also, here's some footage I shot of Lenny and his band peforming "Bring it On" from the new album, live from Cow Palace in San Francisco. For some reason the Lenny videos on YouTube get more hits than anything else I've posted. I guess the Love Revolution fans just know how to rock! There are also some good photos I shot on Picasa. Watch for upcoming gigs in London, Calgary, Winnipeg, Toronto, Ottawa and Montreal.

Well, the moment for launching this album was not quite the best, since he seems to be ill in the hospital and canceled some trip intended for promoting the album, which is never a good thing so soon after releasing. It kind of cuts the wings of the album from the start...

Even if some tour dates get pushed back, it's still a great CD and worth checking out. Hopefully he'll embark on a longer tour in the near future.
