"Again" won the 2001 Grammy Award for Best Male Rock Vocal Performance and was nominated for the 2001 Grammy Award for Best Rock Song. For the five albums prior to the release of GREATEST HITS, Kravitz doggedly mined the influence of ... Full Descriptionlate-1960s/early-'70s icons Jimi Hendrix, the Beatles, Sly Stone, and Curtis Mayfield, churning out groovy, guitar-heavy music that updated those classic sounds without necessarily reinventing them. But all of this, ironically, is to his credit, because it is the overwhelming familiarity of Kravitz's sound that holds such powerful appeal. GREATEST HITS collects Kravitz's best-known singles under one cover, from the blazing Hendrix-inspired opener "Are You Gonna Go My Way" to the Philly Soul ballad "It Ain't Over 'Til It's Over" (complete with backing strings) to his stadium-tailored cover of the Guess Who's "American Woman." The set reaches back to Kravitz's 1989 debut, LET LOVE RULE, and up to 2000's previously unreleased single "Again," showcasing, all the while, the performer's knack for pleasure-triggering songcraft, singing, and production. Though some critics may thumb their noses at Kravitz's blatantly retro music, his tunes are undeniably raucous, catchy, and fun. 'Up All Night' is one of the most hotly anticipated albums of 2004, coming, as it does, from one of the finest young rock'n'roll bands to emerge in Britain for many long years - Razorlight. Led by the charismatic Johnny Borrell, Razorlight have spent much of 2003 & 2004 grabbing headlines, releasing sharp sounding singles & generally behaving like the greatest band that ever walked the earth. The album has taken a colossal effort to create, doused in blood, sweat & whiskey, it has prompted the departure of their drummer Christian Smith-Pancorvo & the absconding of producers, & sounds like a rule book for living life on the edge. 'Up All Night' contains thirteen songs of majestic pop perfection that straddle the themes of tragedy, jealousy, addiction & debauchery & is quite possibly the finest debut album since 'Definitely Maybe'.
