The Kinks!!!

Дык, это я сообразил. Я спрашивал, потому-что хотел уточнить, португальская она или испанская - раз!, найти ИМЕННО ЭТОТ РЕЛИЗ в Инете - два!, да и тираж неплохо бы знать - три. :)

Ну, а если это ты сообразил, то откуда возникла мысль, что это может быть португальское издание? Написано-то название по-испански. :)

~> Simon:

Ну это мой глюк, извини... я его никому не отдам. :)

~> Simon:

Мне показалось, что ты сегодня не очень-то в настроении... (ошибаюсь?)

Апшыпаисся. :)

~> Simon:

Вот и славно!
А с португальско/испанским вопросом я сам же и пролетел. С какого боку я решил, что он должен быть португальским - сам не пойму, ведь написано же чёрным по белому (точнее, чёрным по синему - на конверте, чёрным по оранжевому - на пятачке) Madrid (Espana).

"I wouldn't mind or rather consider doing some shows with Ray purely in respect for the Great body of work we have both been fortunate to have been involved in over the years. And for the fans of course. And the money don't forget the money Reg, remember what it used to be like before the money, Reg. But to sit in a room or studio with
him and have my brain and heart slowly sucked out ... no friggin thank you."

Kinks set to reform
By Mark Jefferies 26/12/2007

Sixties stars The Kinks are on the verge of reforming with their original line-up.

Lead singer and guitarist Ray Davies, 63, says a full reunion is on the cards next year for the first time in almost 40 years.

The band, whose hits include You Really Got Me and Waterloo Sunset, consisted of Ray, brother Dave on guitar, Mick Avory on drums and Pete Quaife on bass.

But Pete left in 1969 and they then continued with changing line-ups until 1996.

Dave had a stroke in 2004 and Pete has kidney problems - but Ray says both are keen to get back together.

He said: "I spoke to Quaife about a month ago and he dearly wants to make another record with me.

"I think Dave's getting better and Mick's still playing. It would be great to get back together just to see what musical ideas we had and what would happen." Ray, now a solo artist, told Record Collector he missed being part of a band. He added: "You miss the interactive stuff. You get it to a degree with other musicians but probably not with the same passion."

Any reunion is likely to coincide with next year's release of a Kinks CD box set called Retrospective.

Ray Davies’ new albumWorking Man’s Café, due Feb. 19, is getting an elaborate sendoff from New West Records. In addition to the single disc version, there will be a Deluxe CD/DVD edition, a digital download edition and also high quality 180g Vinyl.

The single disc, digital download and vinyl editions will all have the following 3 bonus tracks:

1. Angola (Wrong Side of the Law)
2. Vietnam Cowboys (Demo)
3. The Voodoo Walk (Demo)

The Deluxe CD/DVD Edition will have 4 bonus tracks as well:

1. Angola (Wrong Side of the Law)
2. I, Victim (Rough Mix From the Upcoming project called “Ripper”)
3. Vietnam Cowboys (demo)
4. The Voodoo Walk (demo)

And the DVD will include a 20-minute short film titled “Americana: A Work In Progress,” which was filmed and directed by Davies. It features footage from the fall 2001 Storyteller Tour. Ray narrates over the post-9/11 landscape of airports, freeways, hotels, soundchecks and performances, with songs from Working Man’s Café as the soundtrack. It all culminates in New Orleans, the city that inspired many of the songs on the new album.

You can view a video preview of the film at this New West link.

See the brand new January issue of HARP (Mars Volta on the cover) for a full review of the Davies album. Uttered we, in part:

“It isn’t quite the old Ray Davies that turns up on what is technically his second solo album—following the first by only a year—but it’s a more familiar one. Where Other People’s Lives was polished and cautious, Working Man’s Café is sharper and more direct, reaching back to Davies’ most biting social commentary and the pointed wit of prime Kinks days.”

The album rocks like a motherfucker, too.

***

Meanwhile, all you folks out there dreaming about a Kinks reunion—rumors have recently floated around the Internet about Ray and brother Dave Davies planning to get the band back together—should probably consider waking up now. Last week Davies issued the following statement that appears to be the final word, at least for now.

"Ray and I haven't even spoken in over six months. So not only hasn't a tour been planned, it hasn't even been discussed. I am focused on my solo career right now and that's all I'm concerned with at the moment."
