Brian Duncan, I am a few behind you as I just turned 60. I lived in France in the early and mid ‘60s. A different time indeed. Heard a lot of these tunes via the BBC across the English Channel.
I'm 70 and live each day as I did in the 60s...all of the 60s..the best days of my life and have no regret saying that because I AM stuck in the 60s...and can't get out...then again, I don't want or need too.
so right Brian, we were spoilt for choice back then, just look at the charts and see so many great bands, surprising how many are still going which proves how good they were (are)
My god I love this song...I'm 44 year old English guy...my mom made me listen to this music since I was a kid...now I'm hooked...long live England and great Britain 🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧
I wish I was born in the 60s or 70s or 80s but I was born in 2007. I like listening to this type of music, But hey atleast I'm not the only one who enjoys these songs. there's this one girl in my class who also enjoys listening to the 60s.
As I age I realize how fortunate I was to be born in 1952 and live the tail end of the fifties and my teenage years in the turbulent but exciting sixties. The golden age of rock! Now my grandkids are discovering the music of my youth. Turn, Turn, Turn...the beat goes on..
1964 was the first time I saw this 'Y' shaped guitar and the sound Dave Davies made with it made me a Kinks fan for life. I'm 75 and still love these guys. Dave's slicing of the speakers gave us a sound most of us kids had never heard before.
If they weren't overshadowed by the other 2 bands in the British Invasion, The Kinks would be considered by the average music listener to be one of the greatest bands to ever pick up instruments.
Gonna kick the hornets nest with this , but Ray's lyrics were a hell of a lot more meaningful than most of the stuff that Lennon and McCartney had going on.
I feel privellaged to have lived through and witnessed the explosion of Modern Music....supercharged and lead by British musicians and kids desperate for freedom. I saw ALL of these bands,..lived it,..loved it.! Being old isn't so bad....!
What do you mean underrated. Are you serious? They were huge and immense and an integral part of music history. WATERLOO SUNSET/SUNNY AFTERNOON/YOU REALLY GOT ME/LOLA/ALL DAY AND ALL OF THE NIGHT/COME DANCING and other huge hits. Ray Davies was a genius. So who underrated them? Love to know so please enlighten me.
The Kinks will live forever. Great Song of the 60's. How easily you could fell in love just wathing the girls dancing this hit. Thanks to the uploaders.
They were banned from entering the USA for a four year period from 1965-1969, otherwise they probably would have established themselves better, like the rest of the British Invasion groups.
One of my all time favorites and it's so nice to hear the chords on that Gibson Flying V, nice tone. I wish the sound quality were better so I could hear that 4001 Ric.
Yes, but not exactly. 🤔 To hear Dave explain the Gibson "V's" appearance, the Kinks came to the U.S., to Los Angeles, to do shows and TV, and Dave didn't have a guitar; it might not have shown up during their airplane arrival/baggage claim. 🤨 He quickly made it to a local music store, and after seeing the "V" and thinking it would look real cool on-stage, he purchased the instrument for not too much $money$. 😉
I know just what you mean my friend. This song is such a sweet gem! A masterpiece of pop perfection! It sounds fresh every time I hear it. Isn't that amazing?
If that was a prototype, that explains why it looks o anachronistic. I wasn't aware they were available then. Given what Dave did with some of his equipment on early Kinks records, I'm not surprised he'd want to try it.
The flying V came out in '58, with prototypes made in '57. They didn't sell well, and were discontinued in '59. A few were made out of spare parts in '63 with nickel rather than gold hardware. Thanks in part to Dave Davies, popularity picked up and Gibson resumed production in '67, with some tweeks to the design, and they've been in production since. What cracked me up in this video is how he keeps placing his arm between the wings while playing. Seems in those days, most guitarists played with their instrument at almost chest height, which looks rather awkward with that V shape. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gibson_Flying_V
the 60s british invasion was great, beatles, stones, kinks, dave clark five, hermans hermits, animals, the who, hollies, yardbirds, gary and the pacemakers, donovan, petula clark, tom jones, great stuff, love the similiar sounds of the groups
We were in the 6th grade, and it was 1965. When Joe R., my first "boyfriend" asked me to "go steady" and wear his ID bracelet, this was the song that was playing, so it became "our song." We "broke up" 2 weeks later, but I still love this song!
Remember when this came out on Philadelphia's Famous 56 WFIL in late 1965 , when I was 8 yrs old. Song was what ahead of its time , and I consider it to be a garage/pop/ psych tune! Great tune!
Zev Feldman I love 'You Really got me' - I posted it a while back - a great classic - The Kinks were a great band and Ray Davies had such a cheekiness about him and really connected with the audience.
What a great time. I remember how annoyed Ray was when he wrote this song, we were both sat in Carnaby Street. Ray had asked for a pair of shoes in size 9 but requested that the left shoe had the emblem of an otter on the front and the right a shrew. It obviously took the shop a while to sort his request out and basically Ray was fed up with waiting.
One of the most amazing things about this performance is that the drummer could keep playing while that rickety lift-thing pushed him into the air. Every time he hits something, the whole contraption shakes! And kudos to Dave Davies for standing right next to it throughout. But seriously -- the Kinks were one of my teenage obsessions. Just returned from a quick visit to the UK and am tripping down memory lane with Ray and Dave via RUclips.
Damned great tune. Watch Dave as he rakes those strings back and forth... FAT rhythm sound! If you want a heavily Kinks influenced artist, grab a listen to Martin Newell and his album "The Greatest Living Englishman." Newell is a GREAT writer, and happens to be one of the UKs most published modern poets. Ray Davies as one of his chief inspirations, and his pop sensibility is everywhere on the album, especially on "A Street Called Prospect" where he nails that Kinks rhythm and tasty chord changes. This is a GREAT record, and was produced by none other than Andy Partridge of XTC.
I was 15 in 1964 when we were 'invaded once again by the British', and The Kinks were THE band of choice for most of us teenage boys at the time. We loved the REAL rock 'n' roll the Kinks brought over, and the girls liked the Beatles, the 'love song' band. LOL!!! Dave Davies and his lead guitar is what really hooked us!!!
Never got the idea why teens (or anyone in that matter) are obliged to choose their identity from many and build it around a one band or an artistof a choice. I admit I am millenial and I wasn't around at the time but it's still happened within people of my generation. The time I found out about these bands I never felt there is any feud between 'em or any contradiction in liking both of 'em. Same goes with the Who, Stones or the Yardbirds (and to that list of the greats I'd certainly add the Small Faces who are blatantly and seriously underrated 4-piece, although I wish I'll never have to use that word again.) Especially considering The Kinks and The Beatles the bands weren't THAT different ('til later when The Beatles had disbanded and The Kinks evolved into their 70's era) they were both quite rock n roll, r'n'b and pop when they needed to. Perhaps Fab 4 had a few more sort of teeny pop singles at one point, but listening to the albums + material that is out now, they were definitely a rocking band as well. The real teeny poppers of the era are maybe Herman's Hermits, Manfred Mann, and their american equivalents the Monkees, who seems like a parody band for me, though and I enjoy song or 2 by them from time to time.
At that time most people never saw or ever heard of a Flying V guitar. Only70 were made in 1958 and they really didn't sell. Then in June 1965 The Kinks came over from England for this TV appearance and Dave's guitar went missing so he picked up a Flying V in a NY pawn shop. When the show aired thousands of guitar players nationwide said "What the heck is that........I want one, I didn't get mine until 1971.
I was also influenced musically by the Kinks... Saw them three times live... last time was their Arthur show in '71... one of the most underated groups of all time.. P.S. Dave Davies was a pretty darn good guitarist, but his hi harmonys were amazing!!!
SAW BOTH , WONDER WHAT THIS GUY WAS THINKING CHECKING HIS WATCH IN THE MIDDLE OF THE SONG , DID HE HAFT 2 B SOME WHERE , WAS HE GOING 2 LEAVE IN THE MIDDLE OF THE SONG , AND HIS CYMBAL CRASH WHEN NO CYMBAL WAS EVEN THERE IS HILARIOUS !!!
The thing I like about the Kinks is their humor. One of the very, very few bands who could make music with a humorous twist. Beatles could do it. dare you to find other bands who could do that...
The Beatles cannot hold a candle to The Kinks. I could never get into The Beatles no matter how badly I wanted to, but this band kicks some serious ass, yo.
I really don't get why all the girls scream if they love them so much. Honestly, if I saw one of my favourite bands, I'd shut up and listen and watch them, singin along and lovin it. Not screaming my head off so others can't hear the beautiful music.
Sophie& Amy --- whole different world then. No instant social media, satellite feed, etc. Teens were just realising music and acts like this. See "beatlemania".
sophie& amy screaming of the girls reflected the euphoria & excitement that they felt by this new type of music. remember...3 or 4 years previously .."great pretender" and other sentimental swill ruled the airwaves!
I'm 68 now and long for those days such good music everywhere from so many groups. Feel very fortunate to have been a teenager in the 60's

a great song, a great band, a great era, a great man who first wrote this when he was 15 years old, and a great bunch of young lads who performed this
Ray Davies is a genius songwriter.
Pete Townshend actually stated that Ray should be made the British Poet Laureate!

The Kinks have a body of work where you go, "Oh yeah, that was the Kinks"
Great band
Not if you've followed them since they invaded in 1964. You know everything they've released and love it.
Los terceros de toda aquella explosión de rock que fue la invasión británica de los primeros 60's
The Kinks were underrated, listen to the natural harmony and the use of real instruments to knock out a great tune creating a great atmosphere,
No, they were not under rated.EVERYBODY knew how great they were !

Umm the hollies
This was the first record I ever bought (45)....and I still have it...love the Kinks...
Love, love, love the Kinks!!!!!!
The Kinks didn't change with the times they were the times.
How I loved this song when I first heard it on the radio way back when
I loved it in 1966, and still do in 2016!
I think the most underrated band of all time.
The Searchers are the most underrated
John B Agree totally!
They were banned from entering the USA for a four year period from 1965-1969, otherwise they probably would have established themselves better, like the rest of the British Invasion groups.

This was the first time I saw a Gibson Flying V guitar and I thought they looked so cool.
The bass guitar Your thinking about was made by a British company called Burns.
The bass is a Rickenbacker; the guitar is a Gibson Flying V (a prototype, as I understand it).
If that was a prototype, that explains why it looks o anachronistic. I wasn't aware they were available then.
Given what Dave did with some of his equipment on early Kinks records, I'm not surprised he'd want to try it.
The flying V came out in '58, with prototypes made in '57. They didn't sell well, and were discontinued in '59. A few were made out of spare parts in '63 with nickel rather than gold hardware.
