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.

This album is sublime.
Possibly the greatest British album ever made I reckon
Greatness. Musically. Lyrically. The Kinks.
One of the best albums ever made. Ray is a genius and deserves to be spoken of in the same breath as Daltry/Townshend, Lennon/McCartney, and Jagger/Richards.
Daltrey/Townshend isn’t really a thing, The Who’s songwriting is 95 % Townshend, 4% Entwistle, 1 % Daltrey
Rays right up there with mick and keith or john n paul
Such a brilliant songwriter, truly one of the world's finest. The great Ray Davies .
Alright, its one of the greatest songs ever made. wow
Ray cracks me up. 😂
Here is a story about a sinner,
He used to be a winner who enjoyed a life of prominence and position,
But the pressures at the office and his socialite engagements,
And his selfish wife's fanatical ambition,
It turned him to the booze,
And he got mixed up with a floosie
And she led him to a life of indecision.
The floosie made him spend his dole
She left him lying on Skid Row
A drunken lag in some Salvation Army Mission.
It's such a shame.
Oh demon alcohol,
Sad memories I cannot recall,
Who thought I would say,
Damn it all and blow it all,
Oh demon alcohol,
Memories I cannot recall,
Who thought I would fall a slave to demon alcohol.
Barley wine pink gin,
He'll drink anything,
Port, Pernod or tequila,
Rum, scotch, vodka on the rocks,
As long as all his troubles disappeared.
But he messed up his life and he beat up his wife,
And the floosie's gone and found another sucker
She's gonna turn him on to drink
She's gonna lead him to the brink
And when his money's gone,
She'll leave him in the gutter,
It's such a shame.
Oh demon alcohol,
Sad memories I cannot recall,
Who thought I would fall,
A slave to demon alcohol.
Wie im richtigen Leben !
Awesome song
very meaningful song, a classic
Excellent song!!
The horn and reed arrangement on this tune are amazing!
Interesting. I just listened to the Band's "Life is a Carnival. "
What do these "rock" songs have in common?
Why, they both make use of the all important, essential rock instrument the tuba.
BRAVO
Thank you.
Ray always injects a bit of humor somehow
😂🍷🍻🍾🥂🍺🤩✌️😎

Couldn't understand all of the lyrics
