Kinks

The Kinks emerged in 1964, in the midst of a London that was moving with rock. The Ray and Dave Davies brothers, with their guitar and their voice, began to do things that no one had done before. The band entered rock with their own style, mixing R&B, rock and roll and more unusual things, like folk or country. Their sound was direct, with lyrics that spoke about everyday life, problems, love and what was happening in the neighborhood.

About the album

Kinks, according to DoReSol

The album The Kinks has songs that get into your head. "You Really Got Me" was one of the first they released, and it became a hit. Dave's guitar was powerful, and Ray's voice had that way of telling stories. At that time, the band was part of the British invasion, but soon they left the luxury zone and started playing in more modest places. What they did was not just music, it was a way of seeing life, with a sharp eye and a touch of humor.
