see my friends

once in a smoke filled rage, i told someone who thought they knew everything about music that ray davies wrote better songs than that duo known as lennon-mccartney.

i stood by it and of course i was more trying to insight some kind of tension than make that exact point. still, i love them all and really, i don't want to say one is better than the other only because i actually find all three of these songwriters very different albeit from the same era. and sure, ray has been around for what seems forever, mark david chapman and the break-up of los beatles, blah, blah blah...well, i still cannot say enough great things about the first five kinks records. the second one, kinda kinks, i think is a masterpiece! every single song just bleeds british red blood all over the listener. ray davies' words just are so simple and so direct. god damn it, down load 'kinda kinks' here because you too must share the love. song titles in the comments...

kinda perfect
