The Kinks - Life on the Road

Love the pic of Ray at the start. Where's it from? What year is this?

"So I searched night and day to catch a kiss from a lady . . . and all that I caught was a cold"

God, I love Ray and the Kinks — and they ROCKED live

[fraidwoodcesco]

gazzo! ma perchè non ci sono più gruppi così?...io me li sono persi! sarei diventato matto a un loro concerto...sigh

Ray, telling his life story = hotness.

[jamreaper]

@sbarr10 hahahahahaha is there a more inapropriate word than hotness?

[Blakkichan151]

Ray Davies is one of those artists who has a seemingly bottomless well of creative greatness.

[daahsg]

absolutely peak of their live perormances.

Who is on keys?

[LANE211]

Should be John Gosling right?

[martykate]

No, that's not Gosling--the Baptist had already left the band

@DoovallianStallion

Gordon Edwards

A great song, possibly autobiographical?

"It was always my ambition

To see Piccadilly,

Ramble and roam around Soho "

In his autobiography Ray mentioned that the first places he played were in dives in Soho, LOL, and his sister Rosie was "appalled."

From 1969 when I saw my first live Kinks show right thru the couple of hundred more I have seen up until the end in 1995 The KinKs have given me Days I'll remember all my life..The greatest band of all time. God save them. Frank Lima, A Montvale, New Jersey Hillbilly Boy aka Dan the Fan

Kinks are the best-
