Music reviews of It Is Time For A Love Revolution
Music Review: Lenny Kravitz: A One-Man 'Revolution.'
Rating: 5 Stars
Many of my friends have an aversion to singer-songwriter Lenny Kravitz. I find this curious, considering his ability not only to blend retro garage-rock, soul, funk, reggae, and psychedelic sounds, but because of his multi-talented ability to play guitar, bass, drums, keyboards, and percussion on his albums. To his critics, I say keep an an open mind and give Kravitz's eighth studio album, It Is Time for a Love Revolution, a try. It reveals his gifted proficiency as a singer-songwriter-musician. He wrote, composed, arranged, performed, and produced all fourteen tracks himself. Dare I say that at times the classic-rock guitar work sounds like Kravitz channeling Hendrix? This is arguably the best album Kravitz has ever made, and there is a reason it has topped the charts around the world. Tracks include:
1. Love Revolution 3:14
2. Bring It On 3:35
3. Good Morning 4:17
4. Love, Love, Love 3:21
5. If You Want It 5:08
6. I'll Be Waiting 4:19
7. Will You Marry Me 3:44
8. I Love the Rain 4:44
9. A Long and Sad Goodbye 5:57
10. Dancin' Til Dawn 5:09
11. This Moment Is All There Is 5:07
12. A New Door 4:39
13. Back In Vietnam 3:45
14. I Want To Go Home 5:04

Description of It Is Time For A Love Revolution
Deluxe edition includes a rare up close and personal documentary of Lenny as never seen before. Watch as he takes you on a journey through the streets of his beloved hometown, New York City, discussing the many inspirations and decisions that led to the creation of his 8th studio album."We've all got our voice. And if I have this gift to play music, then I'm gonna talk about love," Lenny Kravitz says in a YouTube promo for his eighth studio album. Understood. Got it. The fact, though, is that Kravitz could be singing about old tires or bowling shoes in these songs and it wouldn't much matter, because in the basest and most primal way possible, they rock. Opener "Love Revolution" busts out a vibe that lingers, with Lenny barking a credo--clearly in his old-school element as drums pound and guitars get abused--and loving it. Breaks come in the form of quieter songs like the Beatles-esque chill-pill "Good Morning" and the vintage Queen-like "A Long and Sad Goodbye," but the mission of Love Revolution is mostly to move the masses. And that it shall: fists will pump, feet will stomp, and attitudes will be copped. As listeners flip through the track list and discern influences as far-flung as James Brown, the Black Crowes, and Jimi Hendrix, they will feel not disdain for the lack of ingenuity but appreciation for the good sense Kravitz shows in following those artists' leads. In jumbling them up and making them his own, he proves that love revolutions need not be tame. They can be fierce. The best evidence arrives two tracks in: though "Bring It On" features the soothing sitar of Anishka Shankar, it bashes its way through the speakers as though fueled by kryptonite. It is bad-ass, in a word. And so is this album. --Tammy La Gorce
