The Kinks Live at The Forum, Inglewood - Performance Overview
In April 1983, The Kinks took the stage at The Forum in Inglewood, California, during a period when they were navigating a resurgence in their career. The live recording comes after the release of their album "State of Confusion" in 1983, which highlighted their ability to blend rock with social commentary, a hallmark of their style. This album included hits like "Come Dancing," which not only gained popularity but solidified their presence in the '80s music scene. Interestingly, this show coincided with a time when The Kinks were enjoying a revitalized fanbase after years of ups and downs. Their live performances were known for their energy and charisma, and this concert would reflect that spirit, showcasing the band's wonderful chemistry and Ray Davies' knack for storytelling through music.
