Lenny Kravitz - BBC Sessions, Volume 1: In Concert, Town and Country Club, London, Britain, 5-24-1990

A lot of people say that Lenny Kravitz mostly imitates other people's styles. I think that's true. But the thing is, he picks really great styles to imitate, mostly classic rock and soul, and he's really good at it. So he's definitely worthy of inclusion in my big BBC project. I particularly like his first few albums, so I went looking for any BBC material from that time period. 

I found this one, a concert on his tour to support his debut album, "Let Love Rule," released in late 1989. At that time, he didn't have a lot of original songs. So that's probably why two covers are included, "Cold Turkey" by John Lennon, and "If 6 Was 9" by Jimi Hendrix.

The album is an hour and two minutes long.

UPDATE: Note that when I originally posted this, I have five extra songs at the end, most of them from a 1993 BBC concert. But on October 3, 2025, I updated the mp3 download, by removing those extra songs. Instead, they're going on a "Volume 2." So I also renamed this one "Volume 1."
