Editorial Review:
Amazon.com:
Sometimes it's fun to take the albums of latter-day rockers and play spot-the-influence, and on Mama Said, it's like shooting fish in a barrel. "Always on the Run," with its punchy horns and emphatic vocals, is cribbed from Sly Stone. "What Goes Around Comes Around," with its understated arrangement and Kravitz's falsetto, is straight out of Superfly-era Curtis Mayfield. "Stand By My Woman" and "All I Ever Wanted," meanwhile, are so directly copped from John Lennon--lyrically, sonically, attitudinally--that it ought to be actionable. Younger fans might not care about any of this, of course, because in and of themselves, Kravitz's songs are tuneful, and they do rock. --Daniel Durchholz

- A classic This is what made Lenny the star he is. I continue to rank this album as nothing but great, it has stood the test of time. I wish Lenny would get back to the depth and soul of this album, his recent work simply does not compare.
Rating:
- Lenny is so hot! But anyway...Fields Of Joy - 7.5
Always On The Run - 5
Stand By My Woman - 5.5
It Ain't Over 'Til It's Over - 8.5
More Than Anything In This World - 6 - He repeats himself OVER and OVER and OVER again. :/
What Goes Around Comes Around - 8 - Pleasant enough. Kind of like elevator music. But a bit better. I counted my chickens before they hatched. That brass instrument is ALL OVER THE PLACE AND IT SOUNDED TERRIBLE. Knock the score down a bit. 7.75.

- Lenny Always Stands By His InfluencesLenny Kravitz:flower child throwback who,like Prince and Terence Trent D'Arby before him used the bi racial/multi instrumentalist/eclectic style to his best advantage.What does Lenny Krzvitz have that's different from those two artists?Simple-his sound is unapologetically retro.Unlike other retro artists though Lenny even copies the production style,right down to the analog tapes he swears by.That being said 'Mama Said',although recorded in 1991 at the peak of the new jack and grunge revolutions ...

- Love LennyThis is the first cd of Lenny Kravitz that I bought many years ago but lost in a divorce. I just recently replaced it and love it just as much as when I first heard it. Lenny rocks! His new stuff is awesome too
Rating:
- The Difference Is WhyI believe an artist produces his best work when he is struggling through personal issues, In Love/Out of Love, or in some deep introspection. Its all of the above with this awesome album by Lenny Kravitz. He fuses 60's/early 70's acoustic soul and rock like I've never heard anyone do before. An excellent voice, heartfelt lyrics and a acoustic makes this album much different than others. Buy, don't copy or download this album. Why? The difference is why.
