Anyone know who plays bass for Lenny Kravitz? Some of his tracks have some sweet bass lines.

studio its lenny though...
i really like jack. he's got the perfect vibe for lenny and also for joss stone's first cd  i am not sure about the new joss stone cds, i haven't heard them but i heard that she is falling into the pit of mediocrity by trying to do songs that are written for brittney spears and the rest |

But Kravitz is very good at bass , drums , and of course guitar. JAck DAley plays live and is a superb talent on the bass. |

He also owns a huge Ashdown bass rig . Daley plays fenders and also has a gigantic ashdown rig |

Example - Are You Gonna Go My Way would have been right at home on any Hendrix album. |

It's a guilty pleasure, but this was before he wrote garbagey garage rock and cheese ballads. He's got a couple on this one, but it's really funky!
