Lenny Kravitz: Always On The Run

What happens to a song written for an act like Guns ‘N’ Roses that doesn’t make the cut? They give it to somebody else of course. Recent breakout and former session musician Lenny Kravitz was the unconventional choice.

Slash from Guns 'N' Roses features on guitar, which isn’t a surprise as he wrote the song. ‘Always On The Run’ shot to #8 in the U.S. and #41 in the U.K, propelling Kravitz’s second album ‘Mama Said’ into stores on both sides of the Atlantic.

The song features in ‘The Waterboy’ and on ‘Guitar Hero: Aerosmith.’ It also pays to note that both Slash and Lenny went to Beverly Hills High School, nice if you live in Bev Hills. The music video was directed by Jesse Dylan. It typical Kravitz retro style, it featured a live performance in black & white.
