Listening to my - Album 146

The Kinks – A Compleat Collection (1984)

A great, yet odd, collection of early songs, but no Lola for some reason. The album reuses the same terrible band photo several times. Just enjoy it for what it is I suppose.

Better get back to my rock 'n' roll roots!

Watch this video, and look for the man with the longest hair in the band, playing keyboards.

That is John Gosling, with the Kinks from 1970 to 1978, and who died on 4 August 2023, aged 75.

@webcomictalk Oooo, I love these questions!

For Q4, I can imagine walking around singing "Lola," but subbing in her own name. "Lali, L-A-L-I, Lali"

I also think it's fitting b/c Lali's a female , but is built mostly from a male (hasn't come up in the comic yet, just a drop of backstory).

, werd meteen goed onthaald, en met hun derde single Brass In Pocket in januari 1980 haalden ze hun eerste nummer 1.
Tegelijkertijd kwam hun debuut uit, genaamd , welke wordt gezien als één van de beste debuutalbums aller tijden.
Op 14 juni 1982 ontslaat de band wegens drugsgebruik, 2 dagen later op 16 januari 1982 vinden ze James op het appartement van zijn vriendin, overleden na een hartaanval door gebruik van cocaïne.
Hynde schreef de song 2000 Miles voor hem

Sad to hear the news of the death of former 🎹🎶 keyboard player . 😞

70's era Kinks music was disjointed but hugely creative and with involvement on;

⚫️🎶 Lola Versus Powerman and the Money-go-round, Part One. (1970)
⚫️🎶 Muswell Hillbillies. (1971)
⚫️🎶 Everybody's in Show-Biz. (1972)
⚫️🎶 Preservation Act 1 & 2. (1973/74)
⚫️🎶 Sleepwalker. (1977)
⚫️🎶 … and more.

John Gosling leaves quite a musical legacy.

Day 15c: A song you like that's a cover by another artist

"Waterloo Sunset" - (2005)

And finally: banjo/guitar/bodhrán master Glenn Michael Lockett aka Spot once gave us this wistful cover of the most beautiful London song ever. He passed away earlier this year, but I think about him every time I spin any of the dozens of records he produced for in the early 80s. RIP.

Today’s listening is ‘Are The Village Green Preservation Society’, the 1968 album by The Kinks.

The Kinks were much more of a ‘singles’ than an ‘album' band.

For example, the first bonus track on this remastered CD is the song ‘Days’, a single which was left off the finished ‘Village Green’ album, but which is far better than anything on the album itself!

The album comprises mostly whimsical, fairly forgettable songs. But, ‘Days’ alone lets old Ray off the hook!
