How is Ray Davies not inducted as a songwriter? Posted by Chris on Monday, 06/22/2015 @ 22:12pm |
He was inducted to the Songwriters Hall of Fame last year; plus The Kinks were elected first-ballot to the Rock Hall back in 1990 (and rightfully so). Posted by Nick on Monday, 06/22/2015 @ 22:24pm |
Any interest for August? Posted by Greg F on Friday, 07/17/2015 @ 13:50pm |
Whoops wrong page. Posted by Greg F on Friday, 07/17/2015 @ 13:56pm |

Phillip, if I can get a tic for < 200.00 somewhere within 200 miles of central KY, count me in. Posted by Paul in KY on Sunday, 07/1/2018 @ 11:24am |
The Kinks are one of my all-time favorite bands, so this is VERY exciting news. Posted by Steve Z on Sunday, 07/1/2018 @ 17:39pm |
I can honestly exclaim that The Kinks are in my Top 5 FAV bands. The Kinks were inducted into the 1990 RRHOF ceremony but I still feel The Kinks are vastly underrated. Ray Davies brilliant Singer/Songwriter and they had some incredible songs. Celluloid Heroes,Lola, Waterloo Sunset, You Really Got Me, etc. I probably like The Kinks better than The Beatles and The Stones but The Kinks and The Who would be tough. 5 or 6 Overtime long if you like sports. Great to see the Davies are both still alive. So many musical legends have passed recently. Glenn Frey, David Bowie, Prince, Tom Petty, to name a few. I would quickly purchase any new The Kinks recordings. FRL Regulars: What are your Top 3 The Kinks songs or if you want extend it out to Top 5?! KING Posted by KING on Monday, 07/9/2018 @ 04:36am |
I feel like The Kinks 1966 to 71 period (outside of the song Lola) is vastly under rated. Waterloo Sunset is one of the best songs ever written. Posted by David on Tuesday, 07/30/2019 @ 10:53am |
Rest in Peace Ian Gibbons (non-induct3ed member from 1979 to 1989, and from 1993 to 1996), 1952-2019. Posted by Joe on Friday, 08/2/2019 @ 09:50am |

Although I never had the privelege and pleasure to see The Kinks live in concert, I did see Ray Davies perform live on a couple of occasions in the early 2000s. Although he was in excellent voice, his solo shows do lack the power and grit that his brother Dave provided on guitar. It just shows how integral he was to the sound and atmosphere of the band. That's taking nothing away from how brilliant Ray is, though. Posted by KentuckyWoman on Saturday, 02/5/2022 @ 12:32pm |
Ray is my favorite rock poet. Something besides girls and parties! Posted by Dan on Thursday, 05/12/2022 @ 12:47pm |
The Kinks have one of the greatest catalogs of music of any band in the field of recorded music. Posted by Mark Winstanley on Saturday, 08/6/2022 @ 07:19am |
Rest in Peace John Gosling, 1948-2023. Posted by Joe S. on Friday, 08/4/2023 @ 14:01pm |
