    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 CZcams 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.

    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!

    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.

    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,
