Rating: 67.50
I seem to be way off from a lot of the reviewers, who gave this album a meta-score of 77. AMG gave it a 90! On the other hand, Rolling Stone gave it a 70. In any event, it is a great album (with a few points,in my opinion, but I have no intention of dwelling on those.)What I love about Lenny Kravitz is that he wears his influences on his sleeve. I hear a lot of my favorites, including The Red Hot Chili Peppers, Aerosmith, Jimi Hendrix, Wild Cherry, Marvin Gaye, Curtis Mayfield, '60s and '70s R&B, '70s funk, '80s hair metal, '90s alt rock and modern R&B. You can hear about three-fourths of those in Come On Get It (please forgive the NBA plug). The Other quarter can be heard in Liquid Jesus.
