Never got the appeal. Mick You're a good man, Mick. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

( I know LZ’s first 2 albums came out in ‘69 but I really consider them to be a 70s band ) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And The Kinks have more great albums than The Beatles, even though Beatles have higher highs. All this bollocks of Kinks not being that great...whatever. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well Van Halen certainly loved the Kinks🙂 covering : You Really Got Me on their self titled debut album ( VH I , 1978 ) Where have all the Good Times Gone ( Diver Down , ‘82 ) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve liked your comment Segue as I admire the fact that you are sticking your head above the parapet and aren’t wavering 👍😉 like I say personally I quite like equally both groups… when I played 🎸in a local pubs and clubs covers bands circa ‘95-‘01 we played both You Really Got Me ( my solo was based on Eddie’s ) and also Day Tripper which we cranked out with a more overdrive edge sort of as if some late 70s hard rock band were playing it 🙂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To me they are about equal. But I'd take The Doors and Love over both of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the Midnight Hour was recorded for 1984 according to a Circus magazine article I read right before 1984 came out. Shame we never heard it. If you hear a bar band cover You Really Got Me now, I suspect you're going to hear them doing a cover of the cover. They won't be able to get the guitar down perfectly, of course. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, you’re right about bar bands doing the cover of the cover ! 🙂 Yeah, that’s what I coincidentally just mentioned in replying to Segue that my cover band did pretty much a hybrid kinks/Van halen cover version with Eddie’s 🎸 solo being one of his more easier ones to get close to accurately replicating ( except maybe his ‘ brown sound ‘ tone ) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Differing opinions on music is as it should be with something purely subjective, but maybe sometimes framing them in a rational perspective wouldn't go amiss. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
