I forgot how great this album is.


Product Details


Back in the 90's, like most music geeks, I built up a substantial portion of my music collection using Columbia House and BMG. Remember that? It was like sign up, get 12 cds for FREE, buy a few for $20 each, cancel, then repeat. I liked the song It Ain't Over Til It's Over so much that I had no problem dropping $20 for it.

If memory serves me correctly, Slash (post-Guns, pre-sell-out, pre-c'mon-just-reform-Guns-already) appears in the first two songs. And then there are wonderful gems like Stand By My Woman and What Goes Around Comes Around. This is back when LK was really on that 60's/70's vibe and just nailing it. Mama Said has a laid-back, effortless vibe that he was never able to reproduce in any of his subsequent albums.

And of course, It Ain't Over Till It's Over is bliss.



Fun Fact:
Lenny Kravitz wrote a song that appears on the new Michael Jackson album. It's a good one.
