Ray Davies and his lyrics have always been put on the backburner because of The Beatles, The Stones and The Who, however, good songwriters have their characters and their scenarios and no one could never match Davies' lyrics of the banality of everyday life.
Its a shame, the Kinks never said goodbye formally and unfortunately Dave Davies stroke put a kibbosh on that every happening. (Along with the death of Peter Quaife.)
Love the Kinks!
