Like I said, the Kinks never meant much at home. They were steady in Germany, the kind of a band that could fill 1,500 seater halls for all of the 70ies and the early 80ies. Lola was huge in Germany.

Ah... the cross-dressing stuff... :mrgreen:
The random mind of a Silver Surfer...
If research was easy, it wouldn't need doing...
Staring at that event horizon is a dirty job, but someone has to do it; something's going to come back out of it one day...

Since I seem to have inadvertantly opened the door for The Kinks (yes, that's where my tagline comes from...the song that made me a fan at a young age).

A late favorite!



Also noteworthy for Ray playing the sister guitar to a Gibson Victory Bass!

That's from Think Visual, the last Kinks album I bought. The only single from that album that got much airplay here was Working At The Factory.

Ray's solo work doesn't move me.

Lola vs. Powerman is probably my favorite Kinks album but I like just about all their early stuff.

Had a good time on this Sunny Afternoon watching that local Kinks tribute band (Kinda Kinky). Old friends, good music, hot dogs, and beer.

Sounds like a near perfect way to spend it... ;)

It was. Followed last night by the Quinceañera of my neighbor's daughter. The teenagers had fun, the adults had more fun, plus plenty of food and drink.

 That probably got those guys sent to the Russian front rather quickly!  ;D
Resident T Bird playing Drag Queen www.thenastyhabits.com  "Impülsivê", the new lush fragrance as worn by the unbelievable Fräulein Rômmélle! Traces of black patent leather, Panzer grease, mahogany and model train oil mingle and combust to one sheer sensation ...

I believe they were already there! Those long front stays do something to you.

No, thankfully. They did play Till The End Of The Day which always makes me happy.

Long Tall Shorty was dumb, but it spoke to me. Could have been a Dr Feelgood number.
