Back in the old days, before
an artist put out a greatest hits package, they had to have released
at least 7 or 8 albums, and maybe have that many hits. (There has
always been some filler even on greatest hits albums.) In recent years,
we've seen the miserable trend of adding a new song to the package,
so in order to get the song, you had to buy the album.
What does all
this have to do with Lenny Kravitz?
Well, I was under the impression that he had maybe a couple of hits
and just a couple of albums. But of course his one big hit Are
You Gonna Go My Way is a great rock n roll anthem! So based on
this one song, plus the new hit on this package, again I made
the purchase. I was surprised to find a couple of hits that I didn't
know were his. Overall a lot of filler, but still worth it for the
four songs that I have samples of here.
