    Just a heads up for the guitar muscle of the Kinks.

    Dave Davies - Kinkdom Come
    The Kinks guitarist looks back at his life, beginning with his childhood in Exmoor, where he grew up in a working-class family with a strong sense of community. He recalls the creation of the band's first hit You Really Got Me, which brought worldwide fame and a lifestyle of partying, and how tension with his brother Ray caused their relationship to break down.

    Just realised the bio note is total rubbish! He lives on Exmoor now, brought up in Haringey London.

    Interesting programme I saw the Ray Davis profile when shown on BBC1, they are both each others own worst enemy so to speak!.

    I didn't know as much about Daves life with his spiritulism but the sibling rivalry between both is well documented . Ray seemed to be the one in control when it came to the live act only allowing part of Daves ' death of a clown ' to be sang on stage .....enough to piss any brother off for starters :p

    Nice part of the country Dave lives in now and some great scenic shots inbetween the highlights of the Kinks days but he seemed a bit ......lost himself in the interview .
