The Kinks

In 1988, The Kinks were riding the waves of their reunion era, having released their album 'Think Visual' just a year prior. This album marked a return to the band's classic rock sound combined with new wave influences, showcasing songs like 'Living on a Thin Line.' When they hit the stage at Massey Hall on April 4, you can feel the crowd's excitement; it’s a testament to their enduring appeal even after decades in the music scene. This concert captures the energy and charm that the Kinks were famous for, reflecting both their rich history and the new direction they were exploring. An interesting tidbit? The Kinks were known for their innovative approach to storytelling in music, with Ray Davies often weaving together personal experiences and social commentary, making their live performances not just concerts, but a slice of storytelling. This show is a heartfelt reminder of why they remain legends in rock music.
