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 RU-vid 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.

I'm in my mid 50s and I think the Kinks were totally massively underrated, as in the rolling stones, huge, stadium fillers, their music was boring shit, ask a 20 year old today if theyve heard of mick jagger, they'll probably say yes, ask if they've heard of Ray Davies, no chance, a much much better song writer, hence very underated!

@@Muziekgenot Perhaps I was a little dismissive of the original comment made by Paul Needs, they were a great band and Ray Davies a very underrated composer. For commercial success you need to be popular in America, perhaps they never had the impact of the other three bands, My own feeling is they were too "English" and did not connect with the American mind set at that time. I don't know if they were denied touring, perhaps Drugs were involved (the usual excuse at that time ).. The thing with a band like the Kinks is they will still have a hard core of fans who will stick with them forever and still see them in concert if they still play of course.

Great song by a great band My makeup is dry and it cracks 'round my chin I'm drowning my sorrows in whisky and gin The lion tamer's whip doesn't crack anymore The lions, they won't bite and the tigers won't roar La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la So let's go and drink to the death of a clown Won't someone help me to break up this crown? Let's all drink to the death of a clown La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la Let's all drink to the death of a clown The old fortune teller lies dead on the floor Nobody needs fortunes told anymore The trainer of insects is crouched on his knees And frantically looking for runaway fleas La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la Let's all drink to the death of a clown So won't someone help me to break up this frown? Let's all drink to the death of a clown La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la Let's all drink to the death of a clown La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la

Esta canción fue lanzada originalmente como sencillo por Dave Davis como solista en junio de 1967. Es una composición de Roger y Dave. Luego, pocos meses después, septiembre, sería incluida en el Something else by the Kinks.

Yeah I think that says a whole lot about what talented writers the Davies boys are. My French is very poor but I also really love the music of Jacques Dutronc. He's often compared to Ray Davies.
