Dusting off The Kinks (again)
A Kinks obsession strikes me; I flameout. Eleven years later; strikes again and here comes yet another day…
Forgive me a tired question… why were The Kinks not bigger in the US?
Thank you!

Was this a piss-take? Love this tune, it is Who-ier than anything The Who was actually doing at that time!
I feel that it would be criminal to open this sealed copy, especially since it might be the first issue and I've never had a classic record still sealed. But one of my favorite songs on here is living on a thin line.
So I was rewatching the 1967 Waterloo Sunset performance and noticed something weird. At 1:41, Dave Davies is clearly wearing his glasses, then by 1:57, they’re just… gone. No push-up, no pocket move, no hand near his face, nothing in the frame that explains it.
It’s such a tight, controlled TV performance that any sudden change sticks out, and this one feels almost like a continuity glitch in a live recording.
Has anyone else spotted this before or know what might’ve happened? Did he ditch them between camera cuts, or is there some behind‑the‑scenes story I’ve never heard?
