TIL that the line about Terry and Julie in The Kinks’ Waterloo Sunset is probably not about Terance Stamp and Julie Christie. The pair starred together in Far From The Madding Crowd and were romantically linked.
Boo
Part of me will carry on believing that anyway.
Millions of people swarming like flies 'round
Waterloo underground
But Terry and Julie cross over the river
Where they feel safe and sound
RIP Terence Stamp
The Kinks were singing about Terrance Stamp and Julie Christie. Back when the UK was a bit cool and the World noticed. There was a lot of social mobility at that time, not like now...
RIP Terrance Stamp

"Greatest Hits" by The Kinks released this day in 1966.
One of the first albums I ever acquired in the record club. 5 albums for a $. (Am I dating myself?)

Ted Tocks Covers - Year 8 - Day 62
Well Respected Man
Remembering Shel Talmy!
“And he's oh, so good
And he's oh, so fine
And he's oh, so healthy
In his body and his mind
He's a well respected man about town
Doing the best things so conservatively”
Enjoy!

"Sunny Afternoon" is a song by #theKinks, written by #RayDavies and released as a single in June 1966. The track was included on the #FaceToFace album released in late October, and served as the title track for a 1967 compilation album. Like its contemporary "#Taxman" by #theBeatles, the song references the high levels of #progressiveTax taken by the British #Labour government of #HaroldWilson.

Today's #JukeboxFridayNight theme is #Simplicity
“I am a dull and simple lad
Cannot tell water from champagne
And I have never met the Queen
And I wish I could have all he has got”

"You Really Got Me" is a song by the English rock band #theKinks, written by frontman #RayDavies and released as their third single in 1964. The song, originally performed in a more #blues-oriented style, was inspired by artists such as #LeadBelly and #BigBillBroonzy. Two versions were recorded, with the second performance used for the final single. Lead guitarist #DaveDavies performs the song's guitar solo.
