I think history has finally elevated The Kinks (and The Who) to their rightful statuses. Both bands gifted with visionary songwriters. I think if the Stones had broken up in 1973 they might have reached those lofty heights too. But the brand has been diluted too much.

Ray is one of the greatest song writers that I have ever come across in my life. People who love the Kinks know this, unfortunately they came up in a time where there were many great rock and roll bands coming out of England, and they are often overlooked. It's a shame really, and also really sad that the brothers have not been able to get along with one another over all these years. To think how much more fantastic music would have emerged if they had just worked out their problems. Still, they have left us with a tremendous catalog of most-pleasing and happy music!

I've seen two Kinks concerts in my my life. Now that I am in my 70's, I've seen Ray and Dave separately in concert one time each. All in the Philadelphia area where I live. While I have been unsuccessful writing letter after letter to Ray and Dave separately and together at at various addresses, I still hold out hope that I will see them again together as the Kinks. I'm afraid of losing this chance as we are all beginning to get older. Dave has had his health issues, and Ray was even shot while in New Orleans a few years back. I will travel anywhere, and spend whatever it takes just to see them happy together on stage playing once more. A new Kinks album has been rumored with all new material. Wouldn't that be great? God save the Kinks!
