The Kinks were an English rock band formed in London in 1963 by brothers Ray and Dave Davies. They are regarded as one of the most influential rock bands of the 1960s. The Kinks' music drew from a wide range of influences, including American R&B and rock and roll initially and later adopting British music hall, folk, and country. The band gained a reputation for reflecting English culture and lifestyle, fuelled by Ray Davies' wittily observational writing style. The Kinks and the songs of Ray Davies are now rightfully established as a great British institution. From the opening riff of You Really Got Me, The Kinks’ influence as pioneers in heavy metal, power pop, conceptual albums, and theatrical shows can be detected in much modern music.

This, and much more, can be seen on this YouTube channel exclusively devoted to these true British originals.

My mum knew my dad as a clown, he was a massive man that laughed all the time. He died in 1992. She followed him this year, they’re finally together. Death of a clown, I’m a clown reborn. Love you mum and dad.

The thing I love the most about the Kinks is they were old when they were young. Very cool.

[ericparker]

That's the happiest sad song I've heard. Excellent!
I love the falsetto backing vocal melodies. Hauntingly beautiful.

Another great song from the summer of love, l remember sitting in the back of my dad's black ford pop on holiday in Bournemouth that year, radio Caroline on the Motorola radio, seeing lots of old 1950s cars hand painted pink and psycadelic colours, and teenage flower children in kaftans and belll bottoms, the girls in mini dresses and some in ponchows, and of course, the smell of Joss sticks. What a song, what a year .

[dorco]

The kinks to me have got to be one of the top ten bands of all time, up there with the Beatles for me ✊

[sudish]

The best underrated band ever!
They sound fuckin' great..from Alcohol to the stranger or Apeman.

[antonnincevic]
