Available For The First Time On Vinyl As A 180g 2LP-Set With 3 Bonus Tracks!

Lenny Kravitz’s first five albums – 1989’s Let Love Rule, 1991’s Mama Said, 1993’s Are You Gonna Go My Way, 1995’s Circus, and 1998’s 5 – will be honored with an extensive vinyl reissue campaign courtesy of Virgin/UMe, with each release appearing as a 180g 2LP-set. The reissues for Mama Said, Are You Gonna Go My Way, Circus, and 5 are all scheduled to drop in September 2018 while Let Love Rule will kick off its 30th anniversary in style in November. Four of the five double-LP reissues also feature exceptional non-album tracks, many of them appearing on vinyl for the very first time.

Each album in this series exhibits the ongoing evolution of Kravitz’s considerable talents as a multifaceted singer, songwriter, producer, and guitar player. Let Love Rule established the template for Kravitz’s exploratory nature as an artist and Mama Said continued the thread. The double-platinum Are You Gonna Go My Way shot to No. 1 in several countries and sealed Kravitz’s wide-ranging appeal. Meanwhile, Circus continued Kravitz’s assent with the undeniable punch of “Rock And Roll Is Dead” and “Can’t Get You Off My Mind,” reaching the Top 10 in the U.S. and Top 5 in the U.K.

The original European pressing of Circus was released on a single LP and the sound quality suffered as a result. It’s now available for the first time on 180g 2LP and also includes three bonus tracks: “Another Life,” from the album’s Japanese release, and two tracks previously available only on a limited edition 10″.
