The Kinks
The Kinks Live Performance of Only A Dream at The Roxy Atlanta
In April 1993, The Kinks were amidst their Phobia tour, a pivotal moment for the band, as they were re-establishing themselves in the rock scene after a somewhat quiet period. Just prior to this live recording, they released the album 'Phobia' in 1993, which featured tracks that showcased their signature blend of rock and introspective lyrics. Interestingly, 'Only A Dream,' performed in this live footage, dives deep into themes of longing and reality, showcasing Ray Davies' knack for storytelling. This tour marked a revival of energy for the group, as they celebrated their legacy while facing new challenges, bridging the gap between their classic hits and modern influences. Filmed at The Roxy in Atlanta, this performance encapsulates the band's dynamic charm and proves they're still a force to be reckoned with in the rock landscape.
