...music in Swingin' London, including the Monkees' "I'm a Believer" and the Zombies' "Time of the Season." The Guess Who's original version of "American Woman" also surfaces, the anti-American lyrics making more sense in the hands of Mike Myers' fellow Canadians than in Lenny Kravitz's. Even the '90s pieces have a retro groove: the Propellerheads' "Crash!" fairly smacks of a-go-go. Once again straddling the decades is Madonna's '60s-tinged "Beautiful Stranger", in the form of a none-too-inspiring remix by Vic Calderone. A surprisingly listenable, coherent album from the "More music from...

...England's obligatory outdoor amphitheater, hosting big-name summer touring acts. Lenny Kravitz and others have played here. Though more expensive, the covered closer seats are a wise bet for those not enamored with mud or a sudden summer rainstorm. However, the cheaper lawn seats can be fun for the adventuresome folk who can think of many creative things to do with mud and/or wet clothing.

Soul-rocker Kravitz put on a sharp, smart show last week at the Meadows Music Theatre in Hartford, Conn. Leading sing-alongs of numbers like Let Love Rule and churning out pulsating renditions of such hits as Fly Away, Kravitz deftly blended '70s rock, '70s soul and late-'90s cool. Fans kept standing even during the slow songs. But while the talented Kravitz was victorious, his main opening act, Smash Mouth, mounted a mushy set that mixed pop, punk and ska and created the musical equivalent of the stew of food particles you scoop out of the drain after...

...Night Live--it caught the attention of hotter, hipper acts. After Madonna agreed to be a BTM subject last season, says executive producer Gay Rosenthal, "the perception really changed from that of a series about has-beens to one for current artists." Recent subjects have included Melissa Etheridge, Lenny Kravitz, Cher and the Red Hot Chili Peppers...

Critics say BTM sometimes sensationalizes. Jason Goodman, who produced the Madonna and Cher episodes, says he had to fight for the relatively low-key Heart show: "They aren't as interested in artists who haven't made tabloid headlines." Before his show aired, Lenny Kravitz was at a loss to guess the angle: "I hadn't killed anyone, and I wasn't broke or on heroin, so I wondered what they'd focus on." The show detailed his divorce from actress Lisa Bonet and the death of his mother. Still, Kravitz, like most BTM subjects, was pleased. Says Rosenthal: "Everyone...
