Lenny Kravitz Showcases 15 Of His "Greatest Hits" On 180-Gram Vinyl  

Multi-Platinum GRAMMY Award Winning Artist's Top Tracks Fly High On 2LPs For The First Time In The U.S. Via Virgin/UMe On MAY 18


 On May 18, Virgin/UMe lets love rule with the release of Lenny Kravitz's massively successful Greatest Hits for the very first time on vinyl in the United States. Kravitz's three-times-platinum 15-track Greatest Hits, originally released in 2000, will finally be made available to all retail outlets in a 2LP 180-gram black vinyl configuration. Additionally, a limited-edition exclusive 180-gram version available from uDiscover will feature custom clear mixed with smoky silver and white swirls on LP1, and custom clear mixed with blue and white smoky swirls on LP2.
Greatest Hits was a major triumph for Kravitz and a worldwide Top 10 chart performer, reaching  No. 2 in the U.S. and No. 1 in Austria, Italy, and other countries. This compilation showcases the many strengths inherent in the grooves of 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 — by assembling 15 of the best tracks from the first stage of his celebrated career.
This Greatest Hits collection, which has sold over 10 million copies worldwide, features early Kravitz classics and also sports "Again," which reached No. 4 on the Billboard Hot 100 Singles chart. The album also boasts Kravitz's incendiary cover of The Guess Who's all-time rock classic "American Woman," which initially had been featured in the hit 1999 film, Austin Powers: The Spy Who Shagged Me, and was eventually added to a CD re-release of 5. Its power impressed Randy Bachman, co-founder of the Guess Who, its lead guitarist and chief songwriter. "As a songwriter," Bachman said, "that's the biggest tribute you can have."
The core tracks on Greatest Hits all serve to illuminate Kravitz's own considerable talents as a multifaceted singer, songwriter, producer and guitar player. From the funk 'n' soul-driven emotionality of "It Ain't Over Til It's Over" to the abject ferocity of "Are You Gonna Go My Way," from the elegiac buildup of "Let Love Rule" to the universal yearning of "Fly Away," Kravitz delivers in every style imaginable.
Many of the songs on Greatest Hits will be featured during Kravitz's current Raise Vibration Tour 2018, which kicks off April 13 in Mexico and then runs throughout Europe to the end of July.

Katy Perry Invites Lenny Kravitz to Join Her During PEPSI SUPER BOWL XLIX HALFTIME SHOW February 1 on NBC 

 

 Global superstar KATY PERRY has invited LENNY KRAVITZ to join her as she headlines the PEPSI SUPER BOWL XLIX HALFTIME SHOW on NBC at University of Phoenix Stadium in Arizona on Sunday, February 1, 2015, it was announced during an exclusive interview with Katy on NBC's broadcast of the AFC Divisional Playoff game featuring the Baltimore Ravens at New England Patriots.  Katy's full interview with NBC's Willie Geist discussing her upcoming halftime performance and her invite to Kravitz aired Monday morning on TODAY.  

Katy Perry cemented her status as a best-selling superstar with the global success of three multi-platinum studio albums - her 2008 debut One of the Boys (which generated hit singles "I Kissed A Girl," "Hot N Cold," "Thinking of You" and "Waking Up In Vegas"), 2010's Teenage Dream (which made her the only female artist to have five No. 1 singles from one album on the Billboard Hot 100 chart - "California Gurls," "Teenage Dream," "Firework," "E.T." and "Last Friday Night"), and her current album, PRISM. "Roar," the lead single from PRISM became Katy's 10th No. 1 Top 40 track after debuting at No. 1 on iTunes in 68 countries with 557,024 downloads in its first week of release, the biggest digital song sales week of 2013. Katy set the record at Top 40 for most total weeks (46) at No. 1 in the Billboard airplay chart's archives with "Dark Horse," and Mediabase has just recognized the song as #1 Most Played, in addition to awarding Katy the title of #1 Artist across three radio formats - Top 40, Hot AC and AC. She is the first artist to surpass the 75 million digital award threshold, counting digital downloads and on-demand streams – 20 million ahead of any other artist. She is currently touring the world on the Prismatic World Tour, which continues to be a hugely successful global spectacle, with 17 sold out arenas in the UK, 66 sold out arenas in North America and 25 sold out arenas in Australia/New Zealand during this year. The tour continues in 2015 throughout Europe, Asia and South America where Katy will headline Rock In Rio in Brazil on September 25. 
Regarded as one of the preeminent rock musicians of our time, Lenny Kravitz has transcended genre, style, race and class into a 20-year musical career, one which revels in the rich influences of '60s and '70s soul, rock and funk. Kravitz's talents as a writer, producer and multi-instrumentalist have resonated now through ten studio albums into a timeless catalog, which has sold over 38 million albums worldwide. He has won four consecutive GRAMMY Awards, setting a record for the most wins in the "Best Male Rock Vocal Performance" category. Kravitz's latest albums include the 20th anniversary deluxe edition of his debut, Let Love Rule, and his critically acclaimed latest studio release Strut, which Rolling Stone Magazine named one of the top albums of 2014.  Lenny Kravitz recently announced the second leg of his world tour in support of his new album, which will kick off March 14 in Tokyo, Japan at International Forum. The 2015 "STRUT" tour will take him throughout Asia, Australia, the U.S.A. and back again through Europe in the summer. Tickets and more information for the tour can be found at lennykravitz.com/tour/.
The Pepsi Super Bowl Halftime Show is the most-watched musical event of the year. More than 115 million viewers in the U.S. watched last year's show.  The Super Bowl and halftime show will be broadcast worldwide. 
Katy Perry joins an esteemed list of recent halftime acts that includes Bruno Mars, Beyoncé, Madonna, The Who, Bruce Springsteen & The E Street Band, Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers, Prince, the Rolling Stones, Paul McCartney and U2.
PepsiCo continues to leverage its diverse multi-brand portfolio – including Pepsi, Frito-Lay, Gatorade, Quaker and Tropicana - with the NFL to connect with fans and enhance their NFL experience. Pepsi returns for a third year as the title sponsor of the Pepsi Super Bowl Halftime Show, bringing the brand's Live for Now mind-set and one-of-a-kind consumer engagement platforms to provide fans a halftime experience worthy of pop-culture's biggest stage. This year, Pepsi continues its steadfast focus on the fan with its "Hyped For Halftime" campaign, which will culminate at the Super Bowl.
