Are You Gonna Go My Way, Lenny Kravitz's third album, landed on Virgin on March 9, 1993, and it's a big, brash, unapologetic love letter to vintage rock and funk. Henry Hirsch recorded it at Waterfront Studios in Hoboken, New Jersey, and the sound is warm, dry and live-in-the-room, the kind of crunch that makes the rest of the radio sound like it was cut in a spaceship.
The title track is the blast that opened every door: a slashing, strutting riff, a drum groove you could set your watch by, and Kravitz hollering like he's got a stadium in front of him. "Believe" goes the other way, a slow-building, soulful anthem that swells toward the heavens.
It became his first top 20 album in America and went all the way to number one in Britain and Australia, and it made Kravitz a star around the world.
