Why Lenny Kravitz Didn’t Play Guitar on This Song

MUSIC THAT MATTERS – “Lyric of the Day”

(Music Cut #1)

By May 12th of 1993…
this one was taking over rock radio…
Lenny Kravitz with “Are You Gonna Go My Way.”

(Music Cut #2)

Now, Lenny Kravitz is famous
for playing almost every instrument
on every song of all of his albums.

But this song
was a rare exception.

Besides the vocals,
Lenny also played the drums…

because he wanted
a loose, unpolished 1960s feel.

But on guitar –

he brought in Craig Ross
because for that he wanted his “Jimi Hendrix-meets-Jimmy Page” style sound.

LYRIC OF THE DAY:
“We’ve got to hug and rub-a-dub
We’ve got to dance and be in love.” – Lenny Kravitz
