The Kinks - Full Concert Live in Offenbach featuring 'New World'

Venue: Stadthalle Location: Offenbach am Main, Hesse, Germany Date: December 20, 1989

By December 20, 1989, The Kinks were in the midst of a prolific phase, having just released their album 'UK Jive' earlier that year. Although 'UK Jive' received mixed reviews, it was significant for its reflection of the band's enduring presence in rock despite the shifting musical landscape. This live performance in Offenbach showcases their continued energy and charisma on stage, proving that they still knew how to captivate an audience. Interestingly, during the concert, Ray Davies, the band's frontman, had a playful moment inspired by a personal connection, incorporating a dance for his girlfriend into the performance. It's a delightful glimpse into the Kinks' ability to blend heart and humor even in the throes of a live setting.
