Great self taught drummer from New York that played in Return To Forever and with Al Di Meola. In fourth grade when I got a record player in my room, my old vinyl brother (the other older brother has only cassettes and into Beatles/Doors/Buffalo Springfield/Chicago) let me borrow his records as he was into Rolling Stones/Bob Dylan/Tom Waits/Bruce Springsteen and one that was very influential to me was by Al Di Meola - Elegant Gypsy. It had a superfast pre-punk song called 'Race with Devil on Spanish Freeway' and Lenny played on this album. Later in college years I got his first album for a quarter never realizing the connection and enjoyed it but it was so beat up, I lost it along the way. Well I found the other stuff at Goodwill but had to search this week to find the first album.
