Lenny Kaye
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Guitarist, composer and writer Lenny Kaye was a member of the Patti Smith Group and has been Smith's most frequent collaborator. He wrote the liner notes for Nuggets (1972), which included one of the first uses of the term "punk rock". He was also a close friend of expatriate Australian rock writer and journalist Lillian Roxon.
In the 1980s, he had his own band Lenny Kaye Connection. He produced the first two albums by Suzanne Vega.
He also co-authored Waylon Jennings' autobiography (Waylon: An Autobiography, ISBN 1-57042-435-7)
