A Well Respected Man

Ah, the Kinks. Who doesn't love the Kinks? What we have here is a 1977 radio appearance by lead Kink Ray Davies, chatting and playing a few of the band's songs on the DJ's acoustic guitar. Ray appears to be either jet-lagged or substance-lagged, but his mellow state only adds poignance to a brilliant off the cuff performance.

Thanks to Dave at Dime for sharing this long lost archival gem!
