Kinks.........and really the voice, brain & vaudevillesque singing and acting with brilliance of Raymond Douglas Davies are beyond comparison........they really got me!
I try and console myself with the fact that appreciating the Kinks is like belonging to a very exclusive, very sophisticated, very enriching private club. I say, all the more for us!
But yeah, I really do wish more people I know appreciated them --- simply so i would have someone with whom to listen to them with. I can't name one Kinks fan I know. Thank goodness the Internet links us all up, like on here, where we can share and discuss the music of the Kinks with other fans.
About your first comment, I have always felt that way. Especially when I was on line for their concert tickets. I have some really great live bootleg stuff. If you are interested write me.
@jenzeppelin I had the same feelings in san francisco in the mid 70's...I felt alone when it came to the kinks...the internet has brought us all together for sure....God save the kinks, now with Pete gone I wonder what Ray will write now? Whatever it is, it will be awesome.
@jenzeppelin you're not alone. I'm the only Kinks fan I know too, except for maybe the man who owns the used record store. Amazing band. I've actually lost track of which Kinks albums I own haha
There's always one asshole who's 'too good' for anything.

I love the way the keys descend. It gives me a sense of floating along, drifting along. Drivin' !
This song might have been a tribute to father Fred Davies' Vauxhall car that the family called "Betsy." I got that impression from Dave's autobio.

I've always loved the rhythm guitar in the "hundreds of fields/millions of birds" verse.
By the way, in my opinion, the route to happiness includes plenty of beer and gooseberry tarts!

Another catchy Kinks tune. Man, everyone should know this stuff! It's a shame my friends can't appreciate quirky tunes. :)
