Facts don't do what I want them to.

@morgantim66 Actually, John recorded most Credence stuff with solid state Kustom amps sparkly tuck n rolled jobs that had a nasty built in distortion that he liked.

Hey Andy, just wanted to wish you a happy new year. Keep up the good work.

@wungabunga Don't be : ( man. Just crank it and forget your age. That's bullshit. When i'm 80 I'll be blasting this in my old age home, because it ROCKS. Jay has gray hair now, so what ? Does that diminish it somehow, I don't think so. Have you heard Farm ?? I waited with such anticipatio...

@robertemmet321 No man, Ray is not snarky. He is sincere and optimistic and his music is full of hope and happiness, even if the subject is dour. This song came out around 20 years after the begining of their career, but he still has the fire in his belly. Not many so called artists do after ...

Isn't Ray's outlook wonderfull ? The world's gonna end, and an idol of his just died, but it's gonna be a good day. This song epitomizes His songwriting style - a wry optimism that makes you wish he was a bloke that you hung out with regurlarly because he makes you feel good about things, but u...

I love this song. I had to throw away the first song I ever wrote because I realized it was too much like it. Someday, hopefully far into the future, I will find out that Ray or Dave paassed on and I will lock myself in a room with a bottle of Whiskey and all my old Kinks records and I will spe...

What a great record Village Green is. I'll take it over Let it Bleed or Abbey Road any day, not that those are anything to sneeze at. The average middle class person can realate to this album very well I believe. No pressure was on the Kinks to be icons or songsmiths or whatever. Their British ...

@firstcat No man, there is a plodding optimism that shines through. That's the beauty of The Kink's music. It's the art that's important, not the money. That's what kept them goming. Blacklisted by unions, concept album phase, etc. True artists create because they are compelled to. Years af...

I own a LOT of CDs, but this one is in the small stack of those that I can't get enough of. There is an honesty that shines through in the Kinks music, a wry understanding of the human condition, an optimism. There is no bullshit in their music. They are British and proud of it, not pretending ...

@purple1042

What makes this song so good is the same thing that makes any song from any genre good - you can tell that the artist believes in it. The Kinks have a great catolouge, I don't own an album of their's that I don't like - Lola Vs. ... : great, Schoolboys : great, Village green : fant...

This is good, but I like the fast arrangement as can be heard on YCDTOSA 2 for example, much better than the Roxy one.

At about 2:25 the narrator states that our "our finite reserves of oil and gas will be completely exhausted by 2025". That's completely ridiculous and not even close. At 3:13 a shot is shown of Paul Pantone and his BS GEET engine ( Mr. Pantone spent years in a mental institution trying to avoi...

Kick ass !

This is great stuff. Go on tour , i'll buy a ticket every night you are in Seattle, I promise !

You'll be absolutely free, only if you want to be.

I love Frank Zappa. He created some of the most sublimely beautiful and original music that exists. His greatest gift though, IMO is a sort of philosophy that can be gleaned from studying not only his music, but all of the interesting things that he had to say. He fused high and low culture, ma...

This is one of my favorite Zappa compositions and this version is unbelievable. Bravo EM !

Sublime

Dude, if your gonna have a clip of " It Conquered the World", ya gotta show the 2 X 4

Ladies and gentleman, watch Ruth. All through this tour, Ruth has been thinking, " It sure is amazing, being a part of this band - I hope that future generations don't fall down and hurt themselves before they can ponder the significance of it ( in pedal-depressed , pan-chromatic resonance of co...

Wonderful ! You nail it man. The Lazy intro - spot on, I have to go change my panties !

love love love this song !

@Nu18F It's an Ampeg V-4
