Lenny was 'discovered' by Slash from Guns N Roses - and he was so impressed he even let him play at some of their concerts and recorded some flicks with him.

Advantages: It's brilliant Disadvantages: tastes differ but I can't find any
After recently having acquired an IPOD and having installed Itunes, this little pearl floated to the top of my "Top 25 most played" in no time.

Admittedly not ... ...personal measurement of how good an album is, is the fact if I like every single song. But this goes way further then that.

To me this album was created by a man with immense musical talent which is growing rare these days. I would like to invite all of you who do not ...
