Lenny!

Lenny Kaye & Patti SmithYeah, so I thought about maybe posting a lesser-known song, but when you really get down to it, this really really is probably the best goddamn rock and roll song of all time. Last night she pulled a young kid, maybe 12 years old, in a Dead Kennedys shirt up on stage to play it with them. Afterwards, he gave her a hug.
