The Kinks burst onto the British music scene in 1964, propelled by the historic guitar riff of 'You Really Got Me'. In Thank You for the Days, fans from around the world share how The Kinks have inspired and shaped their lives.
The Kinks burst
onto the British music scene in 1964, propelled by the historic guitar riff of
'You Really Got Me' — a progenitor of both heavy metal and punk rock. Sixty
years later, the band's impressive songbook is among the most literate,
empathetic, humorous, and melodic in the rock canon. In Thank You for the Days,
fans from around the world share how The Kinks have inspired and shaped their
lives. Here are their stories, from unforgettable concerts and offstage
encounters to enduring friendships forged through a shared love of the music.
Among the contributors are songwriters Ron
Sexsmith and Wesley Stace (a.k.a. John Wesley Harding) as well as Crouch End
Festival Chorus musical director David Temple and other collaborators who have
worked with The Kinks behind the scenes. Band members Ray Davies, Dave Davies,
and Mick Avory even offer up some words of gratitude to the fans for their
loyalty over the years.
Whether you're a 'dedicated follower,' a
casual fan or simply a lover of rock history, you'll find something in Thank
You for the Days that will inspire you, make you laugh, or tug at your heart —
much like The Kinks' music does.
