Anubis the Jackal 77 Posted August 10, 2004 Dave Davies (brother of Ray) From The Kinks has had a series of strokes. Details are patchy, but worth watching for next year. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Guest Posted August 10, 2004 Don't forget about Mike Tyson, he surely will wrap himself around a tree one day in one of his Ferrairs Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Yeti 14 Posted August 10, 2004 Good going. Stick a random Mike Tyson reference in anywhere, why don't you ? Ever looked at the subject headings ?? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Grim Reaper 186 Posted August 10, 2004 After that whipping from Williams, Tyson probably thinks he is Dave Davies... but I think even he will be struggling to find one of his "Ferrairs". Oh the joy of slapping down poor postings Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
harrymcnallysblueandwhitearmy 1,689 Posted November 5, 2008 Kinks look as if they're on for the reunion. In September, Davies said any reunion would also depend on the health of bandmate and brother Dave, who suffered a stroke in 2004. But Dave is currently well, the singer said Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
harrymcnallysblueandwhitearmy 1,689 Posted June 25, 2010 Peter Quaife Is Peter Quaife ill? I've not really been keeping up with this lately. Dave Davies is never in the best of health. Any One Kink, anyone? Pete Quaife becomes the first original Kink to konk out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
harrymcnallysblueandwhitearmy 1,689 Posted December 22, 2010 Anyone with even half an interest should see this Kinks documentary before iplayer nixes it. Elegiac, especially for an ex-north Londoner like me. I wrote several of my, ahem, best songs in a house directly above the bridge shown at 39:55. Ray's a witty and genial host too - thank you for the days, Davies. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Just watched it and it was very interesting, but a bit weird how he sees himself as never exisiting...little mention of his brother though, shame... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
maryportfuncity 10,657 Posted December 22, 2010 Awesome documentary IMHO, but one thing I hadn't noticed before. That DD guitar solo in All Day and All of the Night...it really is awesome and he misses a load of notes, of his guitar is out of tune. Kinda works in the unholy mess, until you stop and listen to it. Three years later he played beautifully on songs like Waterloo Sunset. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Handrejka 1,904 Posted August 12, 2011 Rumours are circulating that Ray Davies is seeing Liz Jones, if it's true it's proof that he must be totall off his rocker. Really hope it's not true I'd even rather he was dead. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
themaninblack 2,112 Posted August 12, 2011 Rumours are circulating that Ray Davies is seeing Liz Jones, if it's true it's proof that he must be totall off his rocker. Really hope it's not true I'd even rather he was dead. Just read her Wikipedia entry. Perhaps he's just took pity on her. Mind you, Ray does have form with journos. Remember Chrissie Hynde?

Toast 16,155 Posted August 12, 2011 I don't believe it. Liz Jones is a mad old bat and her "rock star lover" is all in what passes for her mind. I truly thought the ghastly creature was a spoof for years. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They both look like old men now, but then, that's better than the alternative. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
