Toni,
Love the Kinks. I don't think they received the love and appreciation in the States that they deserved.
Laura/Toni, I also love the Kinks, and I agree that they never received the recognition they deserved. I saw them once in a small bar in Washington D.C. circa 1971, couldn't have been more than 250 people in the audience, they ripped the place apart. My favorite Kinks album, I wish I had my original.
