Lenny Kravitz’s 1991 album, Mama Said, has been digitally remastered and expanded for a special Deluxe Edition to be released on 4th by Virgin/EMI.
The 2CD and digital album adds 21 bonus tracks to the album’s original line-up, including 15 previously unreleased recordings from Kravitz’s personal archive (please see track listing below).
By 1991, a good part of the world was already under the spell of Lenny Kravitz’s psychedelic brand of rock by way of his 1989 debut Let Love Rule. Now Kravitz was back with a groundbreaking album, Mama Said, a collection that took the listener on a musical journey filled with brutally honest recounts of love, failures, hope, spirituality and acceptance. It notably featured a resounding 7 singles, including several definitive Kravitz classics such as “Always On The Run” and “It Ain’t Over Til It’s Over.”
