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 KZread channel exclusively devoted to these true British originals.

It is somewhat astounding that this sounds as good as it did 50 years ago, and far better than much of what is produced today

Especially when you consider that for the first three minutes or so, the top end seems to be missing completely.

I noticed it's much quieter for the first three...until it breaks out and rocks. Otherwise, did you intend to say...too low end bass heavy? Curious.
Still holds up
This incredible song is so moving and powerful to me now as it did over 50 years ago when I first heard it. I can still remember hearing it as a young kid in the 70s. I’m thinking this is the coolest thing that I have ever heard! I picked up the electric guitar and 74 and never looked back. I am grateful to have lived in the 70s with all of the incredible music that came out and the 60s just as well, the one thing in this life I feel you can count on his music, with all the things in this world, music will never let you down ! So, thank you Ray Davies and the Kinks! They’ll be listening to this song 100 years from now and saying ‘Wow! This is beyond good!’ So I wonder, is there anyone else out there listening to this song and jumping around the house singing along? Peace, everyone!

❤ most well said. This album didn't enter my life until 1978, but I will always be thinking of how well it would have clicked if I had it at age 10 in 1971.

This album was English music by way of West Virginia
RIP uncle Ted
This song, studio or live always kicks ass!!! Just as relevant as the day it was written.
GOD 🇬🇧 🎶 bless the KINKS,past,present and future🌈 I saw them live in Concert 4 times🎼 Cherish memories😎 ☕ 🇺🇸
DECADES of phenomenal music! So fantastic!
Dave working that slide! Awesome!
Ray Davies the genius once again ....
This is real music!!!!!!!! And it feels good!!!!
Indeed sounds as good as when it was released, and the insanity the Kinks reference has only deepened
Most relevant album ever!
It's amazing that we have to reach back 50 years to hear good music. In the 60's and 70's we wouldn't be listening to songs from 1910 to 1920's

What an incredible song by Ray the Great! I've been a fan of the Kinks for years. If I had to choose a favorite era of theirs, as great as they were in the '60's, the '70's are NY favorite. Starting with "Lola" "Apeman" to "Muswell" to the "concept" albums, to Sleepwalker" and "Low Budget" the music was outstanding.

I was so captivated by this album cover. Even visited Muswell Hill.

Now get out.
Brings back such memories this album. Bought it 3 times since 1972 in vinyl, cassette and CD after a friend used to play it. This is one of my fave tracks. Great sound on this version btw through my studio monitors.
...and just as relevant. Just change 20th to 21st.
My very favorite Kinks tune. Great music AND lyrics.
Got me original album this is in my eulogy list
It's official, I found my theme song
Kinda weird I got to discover 20th century man today, 25 years after playing 21st century digital boy (Bad Religion). Irony has a way of making things happen, that we'll never get.
Genius.

@@scrathnessGreat choice! I should have mentioned that "Waterloo Sunset" was my 3rd favorite Kinks song. PEACE!
Muswell Hillbillies was one of the Kinks' best works, but it's been ignored almost since it came out, especially when you consider that it followed "Lola", one of their most popular tunes. That should have increased their fan base for at least a while. The pop music audience is weird,
Я люблю эту группу с 90-х, этот протест, эту утончённость, эту веру в то, что можно изменить мир. И всегда буду любить!
Vocals sound like Caleb's (early Kings of Leon)

Is that Alan Price on the organ?
Classic WRIF DETROIT Song from like 1979-80ish before it went crappy

Who forced you to get vaccinated? Who forced some form of transsexual anything upon you? Were you dragged out of your home and forced to get a vaccine? Did some black-ops commando style group kidnap you and reassign your sex? Wow, you've had a pretty rough time of it.
