But 2ndarily, he's mining the same vein as Lenny Kravitz has been ... since 1988 or so.

He does have a slightly better voice though

since 1940 or so

But yes. Lenny is on the job too

But Fantastic Negrito adheres to the norms and structures of the blues & he's mixing in more 21st century bits than Lenny does
