“How could you not say that Hendrix is an influence on you!” explains guitarist Lenny Kravitz. “Being a guitar player first-of-all, being a musician and being black – what an amazing combination. I don’t know what I really call Jimi… a ‘Being’ I guess. He took it all the way, and to this day, I have not heard anything more modern or more expressive.”

In this 1997 interview with Lenny Kravitz, first published in Volume 1, Issue 2 of Experience Hendrix Magazine we explore his eclectic musical influences and how they help Kravitz’ music to continually evolve.

Jimi Hendrix: “Come On (Let the Good Times Roll)” (1968)​

This lesser-talked-about cover from Hendrix’s Electric Ladyland sessions is a blues rock firestorm. Hendrix injects sheer electricity into Earl King’s original, pushing the boundaries of blues with psychedelic fury. His phrasing, tone, and rhythmic sensibility feel futuristic even by today’s standards. In 2025, this track is a reminder of Hendrix’s genius, not just as a soloist but as a visionary interpreter of the blues. It still sounds unhinged, free, and miles ahead of its time.
