Description

Lenny Kravitz sits down in 1999, two weeks after winning his first Grammy for “Fly Away,” at the commercial peak of his fifth album, “5.” What stays with you isn’t the music talk but the fatherhood — he describes his ten-year-old daughter Zoe as “quite musical,” already playing five or six instruments, then jokes about the dad he sees himself becoming, out on the porch polishing a shotgun. He arrived in music expecting only ever to be a studio musician, and speaks openly about his mixed Black and Jewish upbringing and the loss of his mother, Roxie Roker of The Jeffersons. With Judy Waytiuk and Cloris Leachman on The Dini Petty Show.
