The Kinks

By the time The Kinks delivered their electrifying performance in Frankfurt in 1983, they were riding the wave of renewed popularity after a challenging period. Their album 'State of Confusion,' released earlier that year, featured the hit 'Come Dancing,' which was their first big hit in the U.S. since the late '70s. This resurgence marked a significant comeback for the band, who had experienced both highs and lows over the decades. The live recording showcases the band's signature blend of energetic rock and witty, observational lyrics, a hallmark of Ray Davies' songwriting. It's not just a performance; it's a celebratory moment reflecting the enduring legacy of The Kinks, bridging new fans with long-time followers. This Frankfurt concert, set in the vibrant music scene of the '80s, captures the essence of a band that has thrived through various musical eras.
