[The Comedian]

Never heard a Kinks song I didn't like. Wore out a vinyl album or two. Loved their tunes all day, and all of the night, and I say that as a well-respected man about town.

RIP.

Huge fan right from the outset ,but have to admit that some of the covers on their first 3-4 albums were , well , slightly embarrassing , particulary on their first US release .

Something so special about The Kinks. One of my fondest memories was traveling alone in London after a sleepless night in the city. I had to find a bus out of the city to outer London to find a proper hotel to get some sleep. I thought I was going to pass out.

I was miserable on the bus until the bus driver’s radio play Autumn Almanac. I was transformed - I was in heaven with Ray, Dave, Pete and Mick.

RIP Pete.
