The Kinks are one of the great British bands, and they’re going to celebrate their 60th anniversary in a big way.
Brothers Ray and Dave Davies teamed up with Mick Avory and Pete Quaife in Muswell Hill, north London, in 1963. Very soon, they produced chart-topping singles that were the defining sound of the times.
The Kinks delivered great songs for many years, and were an electrifying live act. As time went by, they turned their hand to concept albums, driven by the breathtaking songwriting talent of Ray Davies.
They’re celebrating the milestone with a major re-release of their back catalogue, with all manner of musical treasure, from old favourites to rarities.
